PC Setup
When using SCSI in a PC, the most common method is to run your
setup program and define No Drives Present. The SCSI Host Adapter
will automatically self-configure on power-up. To install the
drive, follow the manufacturer's instructions to use the on-board
BIOS routine or software that was supplied with the Host Adapter.

ID0, ID1, ID2 SCSI Address Jumpers
The SCSI ID (drive address) jumpers are identified as ID0, ID1,
and ID2. ID selection is binary, as shown in the table below.
SCSI Jumpers
Address ID2 ID1 ID0
------- --- --- ---
0 out out out
1 out out in
2 out in out
3 out in in
4 in out out
5 in out in
6 in in out
7 in in in
For multiple drive installations, on one Host Adapter, each drive
must have a unique address. Drives are configured as SCSI ID 7
at the factory.
RN1 Interface Terminator
The Interface Terminator factory installed at RN1 provides
proper termination for the interface lines. When daisy-chaining
multiple drives, leave the terminator installed only in the last
physical drive (or drives) on the daisy chain cable; remove the
terminator from each of the other drives (or the host computer).
Bus Termination Power Option
A jumper is installed at W1, at W2, or at W2 and W31 to select the
source of terminator power (+5V) for the SCSI Bus terminator packs
on the device electronics board.
DO NOT INSTALL jumpers at both W1 and W31
When a jumper is installed at W1(the factory default configuration),
the drive provides terminator power to it's on-board terminators.
When a jumper is installed at W2 , terminator power is is provided by
the host system via the interface cable J1, pin 26 (TERMPWR).
When a jumper is installed at both W2 and W31 ,the drive provides
terminator power to its on board terminator and also the SCSI bus via
interface cable J1,pin 26(TERMPWR).
Spindle Control Options
A jumper bridging pins 7 and 8 of J2 (the 4th set of pins)is used to
select the spindle control option.
When a jumper is installed, the drive must wait for an Start Unit
command to start the spindle motor.
When a jumper is not installed(the factory default configuration),
the drive automatically starts the spindle motor at power-on
Bus Parity Option
A jumper bridging pins 13 and 14 of J2(7th set of pins) is used to
select the parity check option.
When a jumper is installed, the drive neither generates nor detects
parity.
When a jumper is not installed,(the factory default configuration),the
drive generates parity and enables parity detection.
Write Protect Option
A jumper bridging pins 11 and 12 of J2 (the 6th set of pins) is used
to select the write protect option.
When a jumper is installed, the drive is write protected. CAUTION: The
drive can still be formatted.
When a jumper is not installed(the factory default configuration),
the drive is not write protected.
Led Color Option
A jumper is installed at W12 or W13 to select the color of the LED
When a jumper is installed at W12, the red LED is selected.
When a jumper is installed at W13(the factory default configuration)
the green LED is selected.
Frame Ground Options
Jumper W8 selects the frame ground option.
W8 is installed, the drive's frame ground is connected to logic
ground.
When a jumper is not installed at W8 (the factory default
configuration), frame ground is not connected to logic ground.
Spindle Synchronization Option
The Rotational Position Locking field(MODE SELECT command, Page Code
04h) is used to specify spindle synchronization operation; see
document #110366(SCSI Implementation in Micropolis "MZR" Products) and
ANSI SCSI Standard.
Unsynchronized:If the drive is est to Unsynchronized(PRL=01b), it
ignores the SLAVE SYNC signal.
Slave:If the drive is set to Slave(RPL=01b), it does not generate the
MASTER SYNC signal or the SLAVE SYNC signal but synchronizes its
index to the SLAVE SYNC signal (J2,pin 20) supplied by an external
source
Master:If the drive is set to MASTER(RPL=10b), it generates the SLAVE
SYNC output signal (j2,pin 20) for use directly by the slave drives.
Master Control:If the drive is set to Master Control(RPL=11b), it
generates the MASTER SYNC signal(j2,pin 20). This output is used by
the controller to generate the SLAVE SYNC signal(J2,pin 20) for the
slave drives.
**** THESE SPECIFICATION ARE PRELIMINARY.
