Using the Disk Drive
With the disk drive connected to your notetaker, turn on your
disk drive. It should respond with a doorbell sound or "bing
bong bing." This indicates that the unit is operational. If you
don't hear the three tones, turn off the power, check all the
connections and try again. If the batteries are dead, you will
have to charge them first. The disk drive has a built in
reminder that the power is on. If the disk drive is not used for
about 5 minutes, a chime will sound letting you know it is on.
Disk Drive Commands
On 6 and 8 dot keyboard notetakers, all disk commands begin
with S-CHORD. If you own a qwerty keyboard notetaker, you
can use all of the commands described, but Instead of
entering S-CHORD, you may use ALT+S or F8 for the storage
command.
Similarly, if you see instructions about using DOT 1 CHORD
or DOT 4 CHORD, please substitute these commands on your
qwerty keyboard with the UP ARROW key and DOWN
ARROW key.
