Note: The DriveDock+ may utilize any 12V
regulated switching power supply capable of
supplying 2A or greater. Do not use an
unregulated adapter, as damage may occur to
the Dock or the attached drive.
Your DriveDock is now ready to use! Turn on the unit by moving the power switch toward the side labeled “|”. When
power is on, the output LEDs “+12” and “+5” will illuminate to show that power is going to the hard drive.
The red LED access indicator will light briefly after the unit is powered up, indicating that the FireWire bridge has
successfully established communication with the drive. Thereafter, it will light whenever the drive is accessed. If the
access LED does not blink shortly after drive spin up, it may indicate a problem with the drive or the dock. If the
access LED blinks at a steady rate, this also may be indicative of a problem or an incorrectly jumpered drive. Contact
technical support for further assistance if necessary. If your hard drive is already formatted, you can begin using it
right away. New hard drives will need to be formatted before they can be used.
