●
Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to:
– high humidity
– high temperature
Caddy insertion slot
Emergency eject hole
– excessive dust
– mechanical vibration
– direct sunlight.
CD Caddy
Only horizontal drive operation recommended, not tilted.
■ Operation
●
Do not move drive during operation, it may cause an error.
●
Avoid exposing the drive to sudden temperature changes as
condensation may form on a lens inside the drive. Should the
surrounding temperature suddenly rise during operation, wait at least
1 hour before turning off power. Operation immediately after a
temperature rise may cause a malfunction as well.

Step 1: Opening the Computer
Step 3: Finding the Connector
Remove the computer’s cover as directed in the Owner’s Manual.
The SCSI cable should have 1 or more unused connectors on the end
opposite the adapter, as shown, find a connector not in use. We recommend
a connector at the very end of the 50 pin SCSI cable.
Step 2: SCSI Configuration
Locate the 50 pin SCSI cable in your computer. One end of the cable is
connected to the SCSI host adapter card as shown below.

Step 4: Choosing the Configuration
■ SCSI ID selection
●
If no other SCSI devices are in the system, we recommend the default
jumper settings. In this case, go on to Step 6: “Connecting the Drive”.
●
If one or more SCSI ID’s are assigned, you must determine if the
default ID# 6 is free. If SCSI ID# 6 is assigned, you must change the
CD-R drive to a free ID# via jumpers at rear of drive.

■ Termination
Note:
The following types of cables may be installed in your computer:
●
●
If CD-R drive is on end of SCSI cable, leave terminators in place.
If CD-R drive is not on end of SCSI cable or last physical device,
carefully remove the drive termination (resistors) and assure the last
physical SCSI device is properly terminated or activated.

Note:
There may already be internal or external SCSI devices (HDD, Scanner,

SCSI ID# of each SCSI device. This information will be required for Step
5 “Setting the Jumpers”. Refer to SCSI device(s) for ID data. In some
cases a SCSI chip set may be implemented in the motherboard.

installed in order to write CD’s with the CDU948S drive.
Step 9: Installation Review
Now review the hardware installation process, assuring that:
●
●
●
All connectors are properly connected.
Each SCSI device has its own unique SCSI ID number.
The last physical SCSI device on the bus is properly terminated.

Operating the Drive
3 Close the lid firmly.
Assure application software is installed before using the CD-R drive.
4 Do not manually open slide.
Starting Up
1 Turn on the power supply.
2 Insert caddy into drive slot with disc label facing up. Push gently
until auto-load mechanism pulls caddy into drive.
Important:
When loading a caddy, do not attempt to overpower the auto-load.
Storing Discs and Caddies
●
●
Remove the caddy from the drive before moving drive.
Do not store the disc or caddy in a location subject to:
– high humidity
– high temperature
– excessive dust
– direct sunlight
As the drive begins reading the Table of Contents (TOC) data, the busy
indicator lights amber and remains illuminated until read is completed.
When the busy indicator changes to green the drive is ready to receive
commands, data may be retrieved from the disc. After loading a disc, it
takes a moment for the drive to become ready while Program Memory
Area is read. From this point, follow instructions provided with the
application software.
Care of Discs
●
●
●
Only hold disc by its edge. Do not touch the record surface.
Wipe CD-ROM disc with optional CD cleaner to clean it.
Do not wipe CD-R discs before recording data. To avoid scratching
the recording surface, blow away dust using an air blower.
Notes:
●
Drive will not permit caddy insertion if:
– PREVENT/ALLOW option in jumper block is set to OFF.
– Host computer is set to PREVENT mode via software.
Busy indicator on drive continues to light amber if:
– Disc is not properly inserted or a malfunction occurs.
●
In such a case, eject the caddy and reinsert it properly. Should the light
remain amber, consult dealer or qualified service point.
During audio play the busy indicator remains amber, this is normal.

Should problems arise installing or operating the drive:
Ejecting a Caddy
1 Turn on the computer’s power supply.
●
●
Please verify the steps of this manual were carefully followed.
If problem still exists, please confirm the items in “Checklist” below.
2 Press eject button on the drive unit
Checklist
Please verify the following:
●
Power cable properly attached to drive, Step 8 on page 13.
When properly connected, the LED lights green.

dd
Ca
CD
●
●
Both ends of SCSI cable are properly attached, check pin 1 position.
SCSI ID# of CD-R is unique to SCSI bus. Compare all other SCSI
devices (internal and external) and see Step 2 – Step 5, pages 8-10.
Check all other jumpers on rear of drive. We recommend factory
defaults on pages 10 and 11 with a SCSI ID# 6 (if possible).
Assure SCSI bus is properly terminated or activated at both ends.
For details, please see Step 4, Termination, on page 9.
●
●
Notes:
●
Eject button does not function if software disabled.
●
To eject a caddy when physical eject is software disabled:
– Assure jumper block’s PREVENT/ALLOW is set to ON.
– Switch computer off, then on or software reset SCSI bus.
Should you still have problems operating or installing your CD-R drive,
please contact Hotline or local computer dealer.

■ No free SCSI connector present
1 Turn off the computer.
If other SCSI devices occupy every bus connector, either remove a device
before installing CD-R drive or use a SCSI cable with more connectors.
Please contact local computer dealer for details.
2 Insert a pointed object, perhaps a paper clip, into the emergency eject
hole and push (typical force required is 46 N [4.7 kg]).
■ 68 Pin SCSI Cable
If only a wide SCSI cable (68 pin) exists in the computer, a 50 pin adapter
is necessary.
