46 Allegro DOS Owner’s Manual

PC cards have a 68 pin socket on one end. Insert the card socket-
fi rst. The front of the card should be facing the door.

Important Note: Be careful when inserting and removing cards. Excess
force could damage the card and the card drive. If the LED indicator for
the PC card slot (farthest right) is blinking, the computer is writing to the
card. Do not turn off the Allegro and remove the card until the LED stops
blinking. Incomplete fi les can corrupt the data already stored on the card.

To remove a card, push the eject button, grasp the card fi rmly,
and pull it out.

Close the door to the PC card slot. Turn both screws clockwise
l/4 of a turn to seal the compartment.
