AlphaSmart 3000 65
Is it OK to connect/disconnect the keyboard cable when the computer
is on?
Macintosh: Yes—we have specifically tested this. For details, please see the
section “Concerns About ADB Live Connect/ Disconnect”.
PC: Only if attaching the AlphaSmart 3000 to the PC Y cable. The PC Y
cable allows connections to the AlphaSmart 3000 while power is on. The
PC Y cable, however, should be attached to the computer while the power is
off. Attachment of the PC keyboard to the PC Y cable should also be done
while the power is off.
What is TurboTransfer Software?
It is an extension that is available for Macs only (loaded into the Mac
system), that speeds up the transfer speed by a factor of six. For more details,
please see the section on TurboTransfer in Chapter 10.
Is there a Y cable for PCs?
Yes. Please refer to the section “Connecting the PC Y Cable” in Chapter 4
for more information.
