Plugging In

Plug in the male end. Be careful! Connector prongs are easily

bent. If the cable end doesn’t go in easily, it is probably upside

down. Make sure you have the cable end right side up and try

it again.

Once the cable end is in, push it gently to make sure that it

is in all the way. If you’re attaching a parallel cable, fasten the wire

loops over each side of the plug to secure it. If it’s a serial cable,

tighten the screws on each side of the plug.

Powering Up

Follow the procedure in your manual for connecting your ex-

ternal device. When everything is in order, check to make sure

the power switch is in the OFF position. Then plug the power

cord into the wall outlet. You are now ready to turn the power ON.

Installing Option Cards

Option cards, like external devices, are accessories that you add

to increase the versatility of your QX-10. Unlike external devices,

however, option cards are installed internally. Some option cards

are equipped with outlets for external devices, while others are

designed to work directly with the QX-l0 or to be used with built-in

devices.

For cards with their own outlets built in, you’ll need to remove

one of the pop-out access panels on the back of the main unit.

Otherwise, the installation procedure is the same for both types.
