Initial Operation - Brief Description

2. Connect the power cable supplied to the designated power connector on the

Freecom drive.

3. Plug the power supply of the Freecom drive into the power outlet.
4. Connect the other end of the connection cable to the USB port/FireWire port

on the PC.

5. To complete the rest of the installation procedure:

(only Windows 98:) After you have connected the FX-5, please start with the

driver installation, as described in chapter 2 on page 11.
(only MacOS 9.x:) Please install the Toast software, before connecting the

FX-5 to your computer. For further instructions see chapter 3.1 (Installing the

Toast Software for Mac). Since MacOS 9.x supports only USB 1.1 your FX-5 will

be recognised as a USB 1.1 device.
Under Windows ME / 2000 / XP and MacOS X a separate Freecom driver is not

required. The drivers for Windows ME, Windows 2000 and Windows XP will

be installed automatically by the operating system after plugging in the

Freecom FX-5 into the USB or FireWire port of the computer.
