GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Preface The GSA Unit is an integrated computer system in a ruggedized transportable carrying case. It contains a comprehensive power storage and management system, a laptop computer (with its own power management capabilities), a printer, and a page scanner. Software is included to operate and integrate all of this equipment as well as several models of digital camera. This document describes the features of the GSA Unit and addresses the operation, troubl

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Component Overview The GSA Unit consists of two cases: • The “A” case (Figure 1) may contain the laptop computer, the printer, the scanner, the camera, the power inverter, a STU-III and internally mounted batteries and power management systems. This case contains the most frequently used components of the GSA UNIT and will probably be the most used. Figure 1 "A" Case • The “B” case (Figure 2) is a soft case that contains the various telephone and power ada

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Case Power Sources The GSA Unit can operate from a variety of power sources: external A/C power, external D/C power, and from internal batteries. When connecting to or disconnecting from an external power source, you may hear a click from inside the case. This is caused by relays within the unit and is normal. CAUTION: THE EQUIPMENT COVERS INSIDE THE GSA UNIT SHOULD NOT BE OPENED! Hazardous voltages may be present at any time and there are no field service

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 External A/C Power The Alternating Current (A/C) connection to the GSA Unit accepts input voltages from 90 to 250 VAC at 50 to 60 Hz, as stated on the External A/C Power panel. Depending on the components in use, the state of the various batteries in the system, and the current operating conditions, the system will draw up to one ampere from the source. The system has circuitry to ensure overloads do not cause damage to the GSA Unit or to the installed com

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 External D/C Power The Direct Current (D/C) Power Supply connector is the small, translucent plastic, arrow shaped connector on the back panel below the A/C power input (as shown in Figure 4). The acceptable input voltages are 10 to 14 VDC. Nonetheless, precautions must be taken to ensure the power connections are correct. NOTE: If the voltages stated on the panel are exceeded, then there is the potential to harm the components connected to the case, espec

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Internal Battery System Using internal batteries, no external power connections are required. When the GSA Unit is connected to an external power source, the internal batteries will automatically charge with power on or off. Fully discharged batteries may require five to ten minutes of charge prior to laptop and peripheral operation, if the case is being used at the same time that it is charging (connected to external power). To fully recharge the drained

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Computer Power Sources Case Supplied Power Since the GSA Unit is a fully integrated system, this is the preferred operating method. To operate in this mode, dock the computer, insert the power cable on the docking bar to the computer’s power input, and flip the CPU switch to the ON position. Computer Battery If you do not wish to power the computer through the case’s power supply, then you can use the computer’s internal battery to power it. To operate in

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Power Management Because the GSA Unit is a sophisticated system with multiple potential power sources and several battery-powered components, optimal Power Management requires operator actions. When external power, either A/C or D/C, is available, that should be the preferred operating mode since it will generally provide the longest uninterrupted operation. One of the best techniques when external power is not available is to take advantage of the power m

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Controls and Indicators The GSA Unit control panel holds two lights and four operator accessible switches, all with internal lights (see Figure 6). Figure 6 Controls and Indicators External Power Light This light, labeled EXT PWR and located between the STORE/POWER switch and the CPU switch, is illuminated red whenever the GSA Unit is connected to external power. The case batteries will be recharging when this light is on. Case Battery Status Light This li

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 STORE / POWER Switch In the STORE position, the computer and peripherals are disconnected from A/C and D/C power. This should be the position of the switch when the unit is to be stored for more than one day. NOTE: Since the internal GSA Unit case batteries and battery charging system are always connected to external power through the STORE or POWER position, during long periods of storage the GSA Unit batteries can be periodically “topped off” by applying

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 CAMERA / COM 1 Switch NOTE: In either position, the CAMERA/COM1 switch only works when the NONSECURE/STU switch is in the NONSECURE position. When the NONSECURE/STU switch is in the STU position, both COM1 and CAMERA ports are disabled. In the CAMERA position, the serial port of the computer is connected to the orange serial port on the inside panel of the case. In the COM 1 position, the serial port of the computer is connected to the 9-pin COM 1 connecto

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Turning on the System CAUTION: Before beginning a computer session, running a full Disk Recovery is highly recommended to reset the entire system, especially if this is the first session of a new series of operating sessions (see page 50). To power up the case • Locate the switch labeled STORE/POWER. • Position the switch to the POWER position. Power will now be provided to all devices in the case except the computer. To power up the computer • Ensure the

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Operating System Logging In When Windows98 first starts up, a login dialog will appear. If the computer is hooked up to a network, then the first login dialog in (Figure 9) will appear. If not, then the second dialog will appear. Either way, enter your User name and Password. Click OK. After this, Windows will finish the boot process and you can begin work on the computer. Figure 9 Logging in 19

GSA Operations Document Number: 401-364 Shutting Down NOTE: Before any shutdown procedure, be sure to MOVE all data files off of the hard drive and onto removable storage media. The hard drive should be devoid of ANY classified data. Then do a DISK RECOVERY with either the CD for the 780 laptop or the CD and floppy for the 740. This will reset the entire system and "erase” any data on the hard drive and reset the system. NOTE: It is very important that you let Windows shut down your computer bef
