Installing the CardBus Adapter for PowerBooks

Once you verified that there are no problems with your system, it is time to install

Layla LapTop into your PowerBook.

1. Locate the rack-mount interface, the 9-pin interface cable, and the power cable.

Securely mount the interface into your equipment rack. If you will not be

mounting the box in a rack, remove the backing from the four rubber feet and

place one in each bottom corner of the interface unit. Then be sure to locate the

rack-mount box in a secure location.

2. Connect the cable. Before installing the card into the computer, connect the

cable between the card and the rack-mount chassis. Make sure the cable is fully

inserted into the card and that it “clicks” into place. You may have to wiggle it

a bit for this to happen.

3. Insert the LapTop adapter into your computer. Make sure the computer is

turned off. To install the card, insert it into any available CardBus slot. Next,

turn on the audio interface box.

4. You can now attach external audio devices to the connectors. Information on

attaching external devices to your particular interface may be found in the

following sections.

5. Turn on your audio interface box.

6. Turn on your Mac.

Note: There is a known incompatibility with the LapTop adapter and the older “Lombard” PowerBooks (G3, 300-

400MHz) from Apple. Unfortunately, this is a hardware incompatibility and cannot be resolved. The adapter should

work properly in all other PowerBooks.
