Cabling
The maximum cable length from the host system to the drive is limited to
6 inches with external 1 K-ohm pull up resistors.
The cable length can be extended if the appropriate termination
resistors are attached to the interface lines. The maximum cable length
is determined by the electrical parameters of the interface.
Driver/receiver
The drive supports single ended drivers and receivers.

Signal line descriptions
BSY
BUSY indicates that the bus is in use
SEL
SELECT is used by an Initiator to select a Target or by a Target to
re-select an Initiator
C/D
CONTROL DATA indicates whether control (1) or data (0) information is on
the bus
I/O
INPUT/OUTPUT indicates whether the data on the bus is an input (1) to
the Initiator or an output (0) to the Target. This line is also used to
differentiate between SELECTION phase (0) and RE-SELECTION phase (1)
MSG
MESSAGE is driven by Target and indicates a message phase
REQ
REQUEST is driven by Target and indicates a request for a REQ/ACK data
transfer handshake
ACK
ACKNOWLEDGE is driven by the Initiator and indicates an acknowledgement
of a REQ/ACK data transfer handshake
ATN
ATTENTION is driven by an Initiator to inform a Target that the
Initiator has a message ready
RST
RESET clears all SCSI devices from the bus and resets them
Note: The target will not drive this line
DB(n)
8 data bits are used to transfer data over the bus. DB(7) is the most
significant
DB(P)
PARITY bit associated with DB(7-0). Data parity is odd
ID(n)
These signal pins are used to set the drive address
INDEX
The signal is just for reference, and the function is not specified
LED
The signal is just for reference, and the function is not specified
Mode select options
-------------------
Certain parameters are alterable using the SCSI 'Mode Select' command.
This allows certain drive characteristics to be modified to optimize
performance on a particular system. Refer to the DVAS-2XXX
Functional Specification for a detailed definition of the Mode Select
parameters.
The changeable parameters are:
Page 0 - Vendor unique parameters
UAI - Unit attention inhibit (0)
DSN - Disable target initiated (0)
DPC - Disable parity checking (0)
Page 1 - Read-write error recovery parameters
TB - Transfer block (0)
PER - Post Error (0)
DTE - Disable transfer on error (0)
DCR - Disable correction (0)
Read Retry count (01)
Write Retry count (01)

Operating modes
---------------
Spin-up
This power on mode is defined as the period of time from receipt of
power at the drive assembly or receipt of Start SCSI command to Idle
mode (or 'Ready' state).
Idle
In this mode the disks are spinning at rated speed, the drive is able
to accept and immediately execute commands requiring disk access. The
actuator assembly is located on track in the 'Ready' state.
Standby
The spindle motor is stopped. All of the drive's electronic circuits
are in a reduced power state except for the bus interface circuits.
Commands can be received immediately. The drive is in an interrupt
waiting mode.
Seek/read/write
This is a command execution mode where the drive's actuator is moving
or data is being written to or read from the media.
Note: After power down or spindle stopped, a head locking mechanism
secures the heads in the landing zone.
Mechanical data
---------------
Dimensions
Height 17.0 +0.35/-0.3 mm
Width 70.0 +/-0.25 mm
Length 100.0 +/-0.25 mm
Weight (max) 180 g
Mounting orientation
The drive will operate in all axes (6 directions). The drive will
operate within the specified error rates when tilted +/-5 degrees
from these positions.
Performance and error rate will stay within specification limits if the
drive is operated in the other permissible orientations from which it
was formatted. Thus a drive formatted in a horizontal orientation will
be able to run vertically and vice versa.
The recommended mounting screw torque is 3 +/-0.5 kgf. cm.
The recommended mounting screw depth is 3.5 +/-0.5 mm for bottom and
5.0 +/-0.5 mm for horizontal mounting.
The system is responsible for mounting the drive securely enough to
prevent excessive motion or vibration of the drive at seek operation
or spindle rotation, using appropriate screws or equivalent mounting
hardware.
Vibration tests and/or shock tests should be conducted with the drive
mounted to the table using the bottom four screws.

This drive meets the following EMC requirements when installed in the
user system and exercised with a random accessing routine at maximum
data rate:
* United States Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Rules and
Regulations Part 15, Subject J-Computer Devices "Class B Limits".
* European Economic Community (EEC) directive #76/889 related to

Warning
This disk drive can be damaged by Electro-Static Discharge (ESD),
please follow recommended ESD procedures before unpacking or handling
the drive.
Packaging
The drive must be protected against Electro-Static Discharge (ESD)
especially when being handled. The safest way to avoid damage is to
put the drive in an anti-static bag before ESD wrist straps etc. are
removed.
Drives should only be shipped in approved containers, severe damage
can be caused to the drive if the packaging does not adequately
protect against the shock levels induced when a box is dropped.
