Power Sources/Battery
This section provides information on the power sources available to the
PortaDVD, including the battery and the AC adapter.
Power Sources
The PortaDVD drive does not have an On/ Off switch. It is ready for
operation when connected to the computer under one of these power
sources:
AC adapter
Charged integrated battery pack
Portable computer using PCMCIA card
Power Settings
The power supply selection switch has two settings:
1. Set the power supply selection switch (see page 4) to “Batt./ DC” to
power the drive via the integrated battery pack or the AC adapter. If
the AC adapter is connected, it will supply power to the drive. If the
AC adapter is not connected and the battery pack is charged, the
drive will be powered by the battery pack.
2. Set the power supply selection switch to “PC” to power the drive
via the PCMCIA cable.
Charging the Battery Pack
The integrated battery pack can be charged automatically when the AC
adapter is connected to the drive and plugged into an electrical outlet.
The drive does not have to be connected to the computer to charge the
battery pack. Allow up to five hours for the initial charge time to fully
charge an empty battery pack. A fully charged battery will last up to two
hours.
Removing the Battery Pack
When removing the battery pack, do not use a metal object. Doing so
could short circuit the battery pack or damage the drive.
Only use TEAC integrated rechargeable battery packs. Standard
commercial batteries could damage the drive.
Operating Orientation
Place the TEAC PortaDVD drive on a stable, level surface for operation.
The surface should be within 10° of horizontal.
Caution: Do not operate the drive upside-down (i.e., with the TEAC logo fac-
ing down).
