Chapter 1. General Information The 7210 Model 025 DVD-RAM Drive is an external storage device that connects to an IBM host system and stores additional data using a small computer system interface-2 (SCSI-2). The 7210 DVD-RAM Drive operates at speeds dependant on the type of media used.
The 7210 Model 025 DVD-RAM Drive requires a host system platform with an AIX operating system at level 3.2.5.1 or higher. For a list of supported processors and adapters, contact your IBM marketing representative or business partner. AS/400 or iSeries Systems The 7210 Model 025 DVD-RAM Drive requires only a supported AS/400 or iSeries system processor with an OS/400 operating system at level V5R1 (or higher).

Step 2. Checking the Electrical Outlets Make sure that the electrical outlets you use are properly grounded. DANGER An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the products that attach to the system. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.

1. To identify the name and the port of a host system SCSI I/O controller to which you want to attach the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive, at the system prompt type lsdev -C |grep scsi and then press Enter. A list of controllers displays in the following format. The names appear in the first column (for example, scsi0 and scsi2 ).
Step 5. Setting the SCSI Address The SCSI address is a unique address that identifies the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive to your system unit. Use the SCSI address switch to set the SCSI address of the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive. The switch ( 1 in Figure 2) is located on the rear of the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive.
Step 6. Placing the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive The 7210 DVD-RAM Drive can be located anywhere that is convenient to your system unit. The only restrictions are the length of the power cord and the SCSI cable. Recommended locations are: v Away from the floor v In a horizontal position v Where the DVD disc can be easily inserted To place the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive, do the following:...
Step 8. Connecting the SCSI Bus Cable To connect the SCSI bus cable, do the following: 1. __ If installed, remove the connector covers. DANGER To prevent a possible electrical shock when installing the device, ensure that the power cord for that device is unplugged before installing signal cables.

2 connecting to a single-connector device 1 . 2. The AS/400 host system only supports the attachment of specific external storage devices, including the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive. Contact your IBM authorized support personnel for information about valid attached devices and the configurations allowed by the system.
RS/6000 and pSeries Systems Only The following attachment configuration examples are valid only for RS/6000 or pSeries host system connection. Figure 6. Example of Attaching Multiple Devices, with the Single Connector Device as the First Device in the Sequence of External Devices Figure 7.
4. __ Review the information in “Indicator Lights” on page 14, then turn on the power to the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive and watch for the following: v The status light blinks for about five seconds and goes out, indicating that the Power-On Self Test (POST) has completed successfully.

c. From the list of SCSI devices, identify the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive (listed in AIX version 3.2.5.1 as SCSI Multimedia DVD-RAM Drive; listed in version 3.2.5 as Other SCSI DVD-RAM Drive): v If the status of the 7210 DVD-RAM Drive is displayed as Available, the device has successfully been configured.
Volume Control For headphones, the volume control 6 raises or lowers audio volume. Rotate the volume control to the right to increase the volume, and rotate it to the left to decrease the volume. Headphone Jack The 7210 DVD-RAM Drive has a standard miniature stereo headphone jack 7 located next to the volume control.
The DVD-RAM drive is designed to limit air flow in the area where the optical components are located. However, the DVD media and drive heads occasionally need to be cleaned. Use the IBM DVD cleaning kit shipped with the device, which includes a cloth and cleaning disc, to clean the media and drive heads.
