Controls and Connectors

Figures 2–1, 2–2, and 2–3 show the locations of the front-panel controls and
connectors.

CAUTION. To prevent data corruption, do not push the eject button while the
LED is on. Doing so can cause data corruption on the floppy disk and cause the
instrument to hang up. If this happens, turn power off then back on again.

To prevent damage to the instrument, do not apply any external voltage to the
output connector or marker connector.
