Using the CASSIOPEIA Serial Cable
You can use the CASSIOPEIA serial cable to connect the CASSIOPEIA directly to a
computer.
Important
• Be sure to turn off the CASSIOPEIA and your computer before connecting the CASSIOPEIA.
• The illustration below is just one possible connection configuration. The location and layout of serial
ports vary from computer to computer. See the documentation that comes with your computer for full
details on connecting cables to it.
• You must have PC Connect software installed on your computer in order to exchange data with the
CASSIOPEIA over a serial connection.
Using a PC Card Unit
Connecting your CASSIOPEIA to an optional PC Card Unit (JK-865PU) makes it possible for you to use
PCMCIA card type PC cards with your CASSIOPEIA.
Important
• The PC Card Unit has a built-in lithium battery that provides power to the PC card. It comes with an
AC adapter that can be used to charge its built-in battery or to connect to a wall outlet for power
supply. See the user documentation that comes with the PC Card Unit for details about the built-in
battery and the AC adapter.
To connect your CASSIOPEIA to the PC Card Unit
1. Make sure your CASSIOPEIA is turned off.
• Press the [Power] button to turn off power.
2. If there is already a card in the slot, remove it.
3. Slide your CASSIOPEIA onto the PC Card Unit as shown in the illustration below.
• Make sure the CompactFlash card connector of the PC Card Unit slides into the CASSIOPEIA card
slot as far as it will go. This causes the CASSIOPEIA to lock in place on the PC Card Unit.
Remark
When using JK-865PU PC card Unit after connecting to BE-300, BE-300 may be turned off without warning,
or may be unable to be operated by strong static electricity.
When these symptoms occur, try to turn on BE-300 again, perform RESET operation for BE-300, or
connect PC Card Unit to BE-300 again after disconnecting.
