DAT Autoloader Installation Manual
MRS Mode: If Switch 4 is OFF, the autoloader writes or
reads both MRS and non-MRS 4mm media. If Switch 4 is ON
(the default), the autoloader only writes to MRS media.
Data Compression: If Switch 6 is OFF (the default), DDS-
DC data compression is enabled during writing. If Switch 6 is
ON, DDS-DC data compression is DISABLED during writing.
During a read operation, compressed data is always
decompressed, regardless of the position of this dip switch.
Self-test: Switch 8 enables or disables execution of power-
on self-test (POST) diagnostics when the autoloader is first
powered on. If this switch is ON (the default), the autoloader
responds to SCSI commands only after successful
completion of the test (about 5 seconds).

Jumpers on back of drive

On the back of the Scorpion 96 are five pairs of jumper pins,
shown in Figure 4. The two pairs on the left are used to set
SCSI termination and termination power. The other three
pairs of jumper pins are used to set the SCSI ID of the drive
remotely (for example, if the drive is mounted in an external
housing).
