Setting Up The Amiga For First Time - Commodore Amiga A4000 User Manual

Setting up the Amiga for First Time

Before setting up the Amiga make sure you have the following items ready:
Amiga A4000
Monitor or TV Set
Mouse
Power Supply
Joystick (optional)
Speakers (optional)
External Disk drives (optional)
Withe Amiga facing you, first plug the square end of the Power Supply cable to the
Power socket at the back of the Amiga. Plug the other end into a power socket but
DO NOT switch on yet.
If you have a monitor, plug the monitor cable into the Video socket, and also plug the
power cable into a power socket.
Next plug the Mouse into Port 1 of the D shaped sockets on the right-hand side. Plug
any Joystick onto Port 2 next to it.
The stereo speakers can be plugged into the Left and Right speaker sockets in Audio
sockets at the back. The speakers can be either stand-alone ones or part of the
monitor so if necessary, plug the other ends into the Left/Right sockets on the
monitor. Plug in to power supply as necessary.
Finally if you have any external floppy disk drives plug them in to the External Flopy
drive socket on the back of the Amiga. Further drives can be added to other drives.
The A4000 usually comes with an IDE Hard disk to run Workbench and your
applications.
Now switch on the power and press the power switch located at the front of the
Amiga and switch on the monitor.
If you do not have disks inserted or Workbench is not installed on your hard disk, you
will see the Insert Disk screen below:
