Precautionary Measures and General Notes
• After transport, particularly at low outside temperatures, condensation can
form which can lead to malfunctioning. For that reason, you should not
begin operation until the drive and CDs have reached room temperature.
• FREECOM systems must be connected to or disconnected from a computer
only when power has been switched off.
• Operate the FREECOM drive only in a horizontal position, to prevent damage
to the media or the mechanical parts.
• Operate the device only at temperatures ranging from 5 - 50 °C.
• Do not use the device in a dusty and humid environment.
• Protect the drive from shocks and other mechanical effects!
• The device should not be operated in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic
radiation sources (loudspeakers, mobile telephones etc.).
• Due to the high data transfer rates, the cable length should not exceed 1 m.
Error-free transmission cannot be guaranteed for longer cables.
Cable II Parallel:
• Trouble-free operation cannot be ensured with dongles because the printer
port signals often interfere with the dongle or the drive.
• Please do not use FREECOM systems in conjunction with manual switch boxes
for the printer port. Many of these devices cause voltage spikes during
switching which may damage the electronic components in the FREECOM
system.
