Note that when the AV300 is connected to a computer, it will use more energy than
usual. Your battery power will be consumed at a higher rate than normal. If the AV300
looses power while connected to your computer you could destroy your directory
structure and/or loose data. Thus, you should always use the AC adapter when
connected to your computer. Be careful to understand the disconnection procedure
also since disconnecting incorrectly can lead to data loss or computer/AV300 freeze
up. The AV300 is not compatible with Windows
®
NT, Windows
®
95, or Windows
®
98 ( rst
edition). While connected as a hard disk to your computer, the AV300 buttons are
blocked and are no longer functional.
5.1 Connecting the AV300
1) Use the power adapter to prevent the AV300 from shutting off due to low
power. (This could cause damage to the contents of the hard disk if not
done.)
2) Plug the USB cable into your running computer.
3) Turn on the AV300 – wait until it completely boots up.
4) Plug the other end of cable into your now running AV300.
Macintosh™ OS 9.X
You must update your operating system to a minimum of
version 9.2. Once done, you will not need any special drivers
or extensions. You simply plug the AV300 into your Macintosh as
enumerated above, and within a few seconds, the AV300 will be
recognized as a mass storage device (Hard Disk) and mount on
the desktop. You can now use the Hard disk called JUKEBOX like
any other external hard disk.
Macintosh™ OS X
We highly recommend that you update to Macintosh OS 10.2.4 or later. If you have Mac
OS X before the 10.2 upgrade, you will nd that version 10.1 will mount the AV300 as a
hard disk on your desktop, but ONLY after a very long wait, up to 10 minutes. Version 10.0
of OS X does not have the ability to properly recognize a mass storage device such as
the AV300.
