Floppy Disk Drive

A USB floppy disk drive is attached to the main unit. It allows you to read and write (save) data
using floppy disks.

2DD floppy disk (720KB)
Drive letter of floppy disk drive
The drive letter will change when the primary PCI module is switched to the standby PCI module
while the Windows 2000operating system is in operation. The drive letter of the floppy disk will
be determined as follows:
"A" will be assigned to the floppy disk drive for the PCI module that is operating as the primary
PCI module during Windows 2000 operating system boot-up. "B" will be assigned to the floppy
disk drive for the standby PCI module.
Only the floppy disk drive of the primary PCI module will be recognized by the Windows 2000
operating system. The floppy disk drive of the secondary PCI module will not be recognized.
(Only one floppy disk drive is recognized at any given time.)
Ex) Primary PCI module connects the floppy disk drive to the group 1 for the first time, initial
floppy disk drive connection made when the primary PCI module is group 1.

IMPORTANT: In the event that the active PCI module switches to the
standby PCI module due to a failure while the system is in operation,
the floppy disk drive letter will change at the point PCI module
