Mac or PC equipped as standard with Fire Wi re A or B interf a c e
or FireWire/iLink PCI card (SBP-2 compatible).
CAUTION
Under certain conditions, it is possible that a Fire Wi re PCI card for MAC
or PC of another manufacturer does not work with your FlyCASE pro-
duct. We advise you to check with card manufacturers the following
compatibilities:
- Fire Wi re card (IEEE-1394) must be fully compatible with the Serial
Bus Protocol (SBP-2) for storage devices and with the Open Host
Controller Interface (OHCI). OHCI is a standard that allows a compu-
ter host to interface with FireWire devices.
NOTE
Under certain conditions, it is possible that a Fire Wi re card A or B does
not work with the FlyCASE PRO. PikaOne cannot guarantee pro p e r
operation of the peripherals in its range with all FireWire cards avai-
lable on the market.
If your Fire Wi re interface card or your computer is equipped
with a 4-pin Fire Wi re connector, obtain a Fire Wi re "4- to 6-pin"
type cable.
