[. . . ] (DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY PROCEDURE) Responsible Party: Address: Telephone: Fax: Type of Equipment: Model Name: Yamaha Electronics Corporation, USA. 6660 Orangethorpe Avenue Buena Park, CA 90620 714-522-9105 714-670-0108 CD Recordable/Rewritable Drive CRW-F1SX This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions: 1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must accept any interference received including interference that may cause undesired operation. See user manual instructions if interference to radio reception is suspected. FCC INFORMATION (U. S. A. ) 1. [. . . ] The CRW-F1SX drive's SCSI ID number is set at "1" by default. · Set the dip switch completely upward/downward. 13 Termination A terminator prevents the reflection of SCSI signals at the ends of a SCSI chain. The terminators of the devices at the end of the SCSI chain are required to be set to ON. If the CRW-F1SX drive is not at the end of the SCSI chain, the TERMINATOR (SW 4) of the dip switch is required to be set to OFF. Computer External SCSI Device CRW-F1SX SCSI card (terminated) (Termination ON) (Termination OFF) Termination OFF OFF Termination ON (default) OFF ON ON Set to ON if the CRW-F1SX drive is at the end of the SCSI chain Set to OFF if the CRW-F1SX drive is not at the end of the SCSI chain Note The TERMINATOR (SW 4) of the dip switch is set at ON by default. 14 Preparing the CRW-F1SX Drive 2 Connect the CRW-F1SX Drive Note Place the CRW-F1SX drive horizontally. 1 2 Turn off the computer and all peripheral SCSI devices. Check that the power switch on the rear panel of the CRWF1SX drive is turned off (STANDBY). 3 Connect the SCSI cable to the SCSI connector of the CRWF1SX drive. Connect the other end of the SCSI cable to the SCSI card connector of the computer or the other SCSI device. SCSI card connector SCSI cable SCSI connector Note · The SCSI cable can be connected to either SCSI connector of the CRW-F1SX drive. · For stable operation of the CRW-F1SX drive, connecting the drive directly to the SCSI connector of the computer is recommended. 15 SCSI cable · The connector of SCSI cables or SCSI interface cards varies. A SCSI cable with proper connectors for both the CRW-F1SX drive and the SCSI interface card is required. SCSI connector of the CRW-F1SX drive is D-sub half-pitch 50-pin pin-type. D-sub half-pitch 50-pin pin-type (for the CRW-F1SX drive) CORRECT Half-pitch 50-pin Centronics INCORRECT · For stable operation of SCSI devices, use short SCSI cables to connect them. Connecting the devices with isometric cables is recommended. · The maximum total length of the SCSI cables depends on the number of external SCSI devices connected to the computer. When one to three devices are connected, the total length of the SCSI cable must be within three meters, and when four to seven devices are connected, it must be within 1. 5 meters. (An example of connection: connecting three external SCSI devices) Computer External SCSI devices 1m 1m 1m The maximum total length of SCSI cables is three meters. · An Ultra SCSI mode compatible high impedance cable (characteristic impedance: 100 ± 10 ) is required. 16 Preparing the CRW-F1SX Drive 4 Connect the included AC adapter to the DC-IN connector of the CRW-F1SX drive. DC-IN connector 5 Connect the included power cable to the AC adapter (). Connect the other end of the power cable to the wall socket (). Power cable (included) 17 Note · Use the included AC adapter only. · The AC adapter may get warm during use under normal conditions. · The AC adapter consumes 1 W of power while connected to the wall socket even if the power switch of the CRW-F1SX drive is turned off. Remove the power cable from the wall socket when not using the CRW-F1SX drive for a prolonged period. 6 Turn on the power switch of the CRW-F1SX drive. Lights Note When turning on the CRW-F1SX drive, be sure that the power LED lights. 2) 18 Preparing the CRW-F1SX Drive 3 Check Recognition of the CRW-F1SX Drive After connecting the CRW-F1SX drive to the computer, follow the steps below to check that the drive is recognized properly by the computer. For Windows 1 2 Turn on the computer. Check that the CRW-F1SX drive and the SCSI card are recognized properly by the computer. For Windows XP 1 Select Start on the task bar, then Control Panel, System, Hardware tab, and Device Manager. Note If the System icon is not shown in the Control Panel window, click Switch to Classic View on the left side of the window. 2 Check that the following icons are shown. a: "YAMAHA CRW-F1S SCSI CdRom Device" in the "DVD/CD-ROM drives" item (Fig. 1) b: SCSI card name in the "SCSI and RAID controllers" item. [. . . ] This method divides a track into small segments called "packets" so that data can be written on a packet-by-packet basis, which means that you can write data in much the same way as you copy data to a floppy or hard drive. Since the data can be written easily, packet writing is proper to daily data backup. Packet writing also enables you to add packets to a disc as long as there is free space available on the disc. Note · Discs need to be formatted for packet writing prior to use. [. . . ]
