QUICK INSTALLATION

1. Turn ON your computer and wait until it fully boots up to load all programs.

2. Connect one end of the Adaptor cord directly to the Eagleroc and the other end to an AC

outlet, surge protector or battery Backup (UPS).

3. Using only one interface cable at a time, select the interface port you wish to use on your

computer. When using FireWire, connect one end of the FireWire cable to the appropriate

FireWire port (FW800 or FW400) of your computer and then the other end to the FireWire

port in the Eagleroc E7. When using USB, connect one end of the USB cable to the USB port

of your computer (or via Power Hub that is connected to your computer) and then the

other end to the USB port in the Eagleroc E7.

NOTE: Although, the AC adaptor MUST BE connected first to both the hard drive and to

electricity; however, the drive will not come “ON” until an interface (USB or FireWire) cable is

fully connected.
