Precautions

AG-MSU10

 Secure deletion of data from memory cards and storage devices prior to disposal or transfer of the

unit

The format and delete functions on this unit or a PC will only change the file management data and leave
data on the memory card or storage device intact. It is recommended that cards or storage devices either be
physically destroyed or that commercially sold software be used to completely delete any data they contain.
Management of data on memory cards and storage devices is the sole responsibility of the user.

 Place of Installation

Do not install this unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight as this may deform the cabinet or damage the
LCD screen.

 Liquid crystal displays

While 99.99 % or more of the pixels on an LCD screen will function normally, 0.01 % may either be dead or

•
constantly lit (seen as red, blue or green dots). This is not a malfunction.
There may be some unevenness on the screen depending on the image displayed.

•
Wiping or rubbing the LCD screen with a rough cloth may damage it.

•
Leaving an unchanging image on the screen for a long period of time may create a temporary afterimage

•
(burn-in).
LCD response and brightness vary with operating temperature.

•
In a high-temperature and high-humidity location, the LCD panel characteristics may change and result in

•
uneven image quality.

AG-MBX10G interface box

Install a commercially available 2.5-type SSD with Serial ATA interface in the supplied AG-MBX10G remov­able interface box according to the instructions in “Interface Box Setup” (page 42).

Information on SSDs that we have tested is posted on our website.

•
Be sure to turn the unit off before inserting and removing the interface box in the unit.

•
Failure to heed this warning may result in damage to the unit.
Do not install a hard disk drive in the interface box.

•

AC adapter

Use the supplied AC adapter. Read the Operating Instructions before use.

 “Connecting the Power Cable” (page 16 ).

Battery

Use the supplied battery. (CGA-D54 for the AG-MSU10P / CGA-D54s for the AG-MSU10E)

Battery characteristics

This unit uses a rechargeable lithiumion battery that uses its internal chemical reaction to generate electrical
energy. This reaction is easily influenced by the ambient temperature and humidity, and the battery's effective
operating time is reduced as the temperature rises or falls. In very low temperatures, the battery may last only
5 minutes.
Protective circuitry functions if you use the battery where it is very hot and you will have to wait before you
can use it again.

Introduction

Remove the battery after use.

Completely remove the battery. (The battery continues to be used even if you have turned the unit off.) The
battery can over discharge if you leave it in the unit and it may become impossible to recharge it.

device with a separate power supply.

• This unit does not support storage devices that are 2 TB
(2,048 GB) or larger.

• Some storage devices and cables may not operate nor­mally.

• Use a storage device with sufficient space for copying.

• Do not connect a storage device to hubs or other connec­tions that involve multiple units even when it is not pow­ered.

• During formatting and copying, do not disconnect cables,
do not remove a P2 card and do not power off this unit
and the storage device. Otherwise this unit and the stor­age device must be rebooted. The P2 card may have
become damaged.

• A storage device is a high-precision instrument whose
read and write functions may fail if used in an unsuitable
environment. Please note that Panasonic accepts no
liability whatsoever for data loss or other losses either
direct or indirect arising from storage device damage or

Preparation

Charging the battery

The battery is not charged when the product is
purchased. Use the steps below to fully charge the
battery using the supplied charger.

Place the battery level on the charger

1

and slide it in the direction of the arrows
on the charger.

Connect the AC power supply cable to

2

the charger and connect the power plug
to a wall outlet.

• The POWER lamp and CHARGE lamp on
the charger lights indicating that charging
has started.

• If the CHARGE lamp does not light when
the battery is installed, reinstall the battery
correctly.

 Charging time and battery life estimates for the

supplied battery

Capacity 5400 mAh

Charging time Approx. 330 min.

Continuous copying time Approx. 400 min.

• The table above shows expected battery per­formance with an E-series P2 card in the AG­MBX10G removable interface box.

• This level of performance is achieved at an ambi­ent operating temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) and
an ambient operating humidity of 60 %. Higher
temperature and humidity levels will extend the
charging time.

• The battery becomes hot during charging.

• When the battery temperature becomes exces­sively high or low, or it has become discharged
after a long period of inactivity, the CHARGE lamp
may flash a two or three times before automatic
charging starts.

• If the CHARGE lamp continues flashing when the
