Preparation
For desktop computer with SCSI board
Step 1 Connection
A commercial SCSI board and SCSI cable are required to connect the player to a desktop computer without PCMCIA card slot. For a recommended SCSI board, refer to “Option/ Recommended Products” P. 39). For further information, refer to your SCSI board manual.
First make sure both the player and the desktop computer are off.
Cautions for a SCSI cable:
• Use a shielded SCSI cable of 1.5 m (4.9 ft.) or shorter.
•The connector connecting to the player should be half pitch 50 pin (pin type). Refer to your SCSI board manual for the type of the connector connecting to the computer side.
Step 2 Setting up your desktop computer
To use the player with your desktop computer, you must set up your computer. Please
refer to the enclosed Setup Manual.
Daisy chain connection:
You can connect this player to other SCSI devices (up to seven devices). Make sure that each SCSI device has different SCSI ID number. For the setting of SCSI ID number and terminator of this player, refer to “SCSI ID Number and Terminator Setting” ((B^ P. 36). Since the player has only one SCSI connector, it must be the last device in the daisy chain. In this case, set the terminator of the player to ON (E^ P. 36) and of the other SCSI devices to OFF.

•when the blinking mark appears on the player’s display. Caution:
• Do not attempt to charge the rechargeable battery using a charger other than this player.

Install the rechargeable battery.

Instructions are the same as the battery case of the alkaline batteries
(lET P. 26).
@ Connect the supplied AC
adaptor {er P. 13),
(Do not turn on the player.)
The charge lamp (red) lights when charging starts. Charging will automatically finish when the charge lamp goes off. A full battery charge requires a maximum of three (3) hours.
Notes:
•The rechargeable battery becomes warm while charging. This is not abnormal
(tET P. 33).
•The charging time may change depending on the level of remaining charge of the
rechargeable battery.
•The rechargeable battery can be charged even when you are using the player {when the player is turned on). In this case, charging time becomes longer (maximum 30
hours).
•The rechargeable battery can be charged approximately 500 times. However, it changes depending on how it is used.

Using the Power from a Computer
(through the Interface Card)_______________
If the supplied interface card/cable is used between the computer and player, you can operate the player using the power from the computer (you do not need to connect the AC adaptor or install the alkaline batteries/rechargeable battery). The power from the com puter is automatically supplied when the computer is turned on, then “PC POWER” is displayed on the player’s display.
Notes;
•The power switch cannot be used when the power from the computer is used. To turn off the player, press for more than 3 seconds.
•Set the terminator to OFF {DSf P. 36), or Power from computer can not be used.
•Depending on the performance of computer’s power supply, the computer may not be able to supply power to the player, if the power of the computer or player is turned off or fails, or the other PC card is connected to the computer as well as the supplied interface card, use the AC adaptor with the player.
•When blinking mark is displayed, immediately connect the AC adaptor or
use the alkaline batteries or rechargeable battery, othenwise the computer may hang
up.
• For the computer, it is recommended to use the AC power instead of its battery (the battery of the computer goes low faster when the player uses the power from the computer).
• If the power from the computer is used, approximately 0.5 W of power is consumed
even when the player is OFF. Depending on the computer, power is supplied from it to the player even if the
computer is in the power save mode.
If the player is not going to be used, it is recommended to remove the interface card.
• Power from the computer cannot be used when the player is connected with the
SCSI board.
• It may take some time until the player can be used (“on” blinks).
•When you connect the player, Zip or Jaz and your computer with PCMCIA card slot,
power from the computer is not sufficient for the player. Use the AC adaptor, alkaline
batteries or optional rechargeable battery.

Using the Power from a Computer (through the Interface Card)
Using the power from computer with the other power
sources installed:
You can force the player to use the power from the computer even with the other power sources (AC adaptor, alkaline batteries or rechargeable battery) installed. Using this function, you can stop power consumption of the alkaline batteries or rechargeable
batteries without removing them from the player.
© Press “ 'g" (PC POWER)”
button for more than 3 seconds.
“PC POWER” is displayed when the power from the computer is selected.
To return to use the other power sources (AC adaptor, alkaline batteries or rechargeable battery) press “PC POWER" button again for more than 3 seconds. “PC POWER” will disappear. If no other power sources are installed, the player is turned off.
Notes:
•You cannot switch from the other power sources to power from the computer even if is pressed when the POWER/BUSY lamp is blinking.
•Once you switch to the power from the computer, the power does not automatically return to the AC adaptor, alkaline batteries or rechargeable battery even if they are installed afterwords.
•“E rr OP” (Error Operation) may appear when you press “ f~] PC POWER”. In this case, remove and re-install the interface card for use under Windows 95 or reset the computer for use under other operating systems.

When the power from the computer is used, the player’s terminator is set to ON.
When the power from the computer is used, the computer’s battery is low.
When the power from the computer is used, power supply capacity of the computer is not sufficient.
Plug the AC adaptor correctly {(ET P. 13).
Disconnect the AC adaptor and connect it again after 2—3 minutes.
install the alkaline
batteries/rechargeable battery
properiy, charge the recharge­abie battery or replace with new batteries {(^ P. 25—28).
Set up the computer (iep“ P. 14).
Properiy connect the interface cable or interface card
((ET P. 14). Consuit your deaier (or contact
Panasonic Service Center at

SCSI ID Number and Terminator Setting
■ ses/ ID number:
Each SCSI device connected to your computer can be assigned an individual ID number {refer to the respective manuals). Be sure that the player’s SCSI ID number is not same as another SCSI device connected to the computer.
The factory setting of the player’s SCSI ID number is set to 5.
Terminator:
The factory setting is OFF.
ON: • When the supplied interface card is used to connect to Zip or Jaz drive.
• When the desktop computer is connected with a SCSI board (not supplied) {(^ P. 16). If SCSI devices are connected, set their terminators to OFF.
OFF: • When the supplied interface card is used to connect to a computer (sgÿ- P. 14).
(power from the computer can be used).
• When using independently as an audio CD player (os^ P. 18) with the alkaline batteries or rechargeable battery installed (power consumption can be saved).

Setting

Make sure that the player is off. Set the SCSI ID number switch (1—3) or Terminator switch (4) ON/OFF by using a pointed object like a pen (do not use a pencil), and referring to the table below (for SCSI ID number).
