Apple IIe Card - Manual (Page 11)

You can connect more than one Apple IIe disk drive to the Macintosh LC by
daisy-chaining them. However, the drives must be connected in the correct
order for them to work properly:
- If you have two Apple 5.25 Drives, connect the first drive to the Y-shaped
cable. Then connect the second drive to the first drive by plugging the
connector from the second drive into the port on the back of the first drive.
- If you have a UniDisk 3.5 Drive and one Apple 5.25 Drive, first connect the
UniDisk 3.5 Drive to the Y-shaped cable. Then connect the Apple 5.25 Drive to
the UniDisk 3.5 Drive by plugging the connector from the Apple 5.25 Drive
into the port on the back of the UniDisk 3.5 Drive.
- If you have a UniDisk 3.5 Drive and two Apple 5.25 Drives, first connect
the UniDisk 3.5 Drive to the Y-shaped cable. Then connect the first Apple
5.25 Drive to the UniDisk 3.5 Drive by plugging the connector from the 5.25
Drive into the port on the back of the UniDisk 3.5 Drive. Then connect the
second 5.25 Drive to the first 5.25 Drive by plugging the connector from the
second 5.25 Drive into the port on the back of the first 5.25 Drive.
!! IMPORTANT: If you plan to use both a UniDisk 3.5 Drive and one or more
Apple 5.25 Drives with the Macintosh LC, you must position the UniDisk drive
first in the daisy chain. The disk drives will not work correctly if a 5.25
Drive is positioned first in the chain. !!
!! WARNING: If you want to swap drives or devices connected to the Y-shaped
cable, be sure to turn off the computer first. If you change devices while
the computer is on, you may damage the device or the computer, or both. !!
Connecting Other Devices
You may have an Apple IIe device -- such as a joystick or hand controls --
that you'd like to use with the Macintosh LC. (Note: The only joystick
supported by the Apple IIe Card is the one with 9 pins in the connector.)
Follow these instructions:
!! WARNING: Before connecting anything to your computer, make sure the
power cord is plugged in and the power is turned off. The power cord acts as
a ground for your computer, protecting you from electrical shock, even when
the computer is turned off. !!
1. Plug the Y-shaped cable into the Apple IIe port on the computer's back
panel, as shown in the figure.
The Y-shaped cable comes with the other Apple IIe Card materials.
Be sure the connectors line up correctly. Tighten the connector screws to
ensure a proper fit.
2. Connect the device's cable connector to the smaller of the two connectors
on the Y-shaped cable, as shown in the figure.
Again, be sure the connectors line up correctly, and tighten the connector
screws to ensure a proper fit.
You can connect only one Apple IIe device at a time to the smaller connector
on the Y-shaped cable. If you want to use more than one device, you'll need
to swap the devices.
