To insert or eject a Zip disk
When the OmniBook is reading or writing data to the Zip drive, the Zip disk
indicator appears on the OmniBook status anel (above the function keys).
C A U T I O N Always turn on power to the OmniBook before inserting a Zip disk. When you
insert a Zip Disk, the green busy light will flash momentarily and go out. (If the
light continues to blink slowly, push the disk eject button to eject the Zip disk,
then insert it again.)
Do not insert or remove a Zip disk while the OmniBook is actively reading or
writing data. Otherwise, the OmniBook could stop responding and you could
lose data.
1. To insert the Zip disk, hold the disk with its face up and then gently insert it into
the Zip drive.
2. To remove the Zip disk, gently press the eject button on the front of the Zip disk
drive. Do not use excessive force. The green busy light blinks as the disk spins
down. The drive takes a few seconds to eject the disk.
The Zip drive automatically ejects the disk when you shut down your
OmniBook. Store all your Zip disks in their protective case when not in use.
