3. Plug the other end of the power cord into a 120 volt

electrical wall outlet.

When the adapter is connected to both the computer and

an electrical outlet, the AC power indicator light turns on. This
light is a convenient way to verify that the AC adapter is

providing power to the computer.

Be sure to read ‘Using the Adapter” in Chapter 3 for

information on powering the computer with the AC adapter.

The Equity LT contains a rechargeable NiCad (nickel

cadmium) battery pack that powers the computer when you are

not using the AC adapter. Before you can use the computer
the first time, you must charge the battery.

When you plugged in the AC adapter in step 3, it started

charging the battery. This happens whenever the adapter is

connected to the computer and plugged into an electrical
outlet. Let the battery charge for at least five minutes before
you start using the computer for the first time and leave the
AC adapter connected while you use the computer.

Be sure to read “Using the Battery” in Chapter 3 for

information on using the computer with the battery. It explains

how to fully charge the battery; you should do this as soon as

possible with your new computer.

The Equity LT has both parallel and serial interfaces.

You can easily connect a printer or plotter that has either type

of interface-just follow the instructions below. Of course,
Epson offers a full range of printer products; consult your
dealer for more information.
