Setting The Jumper Terminals - Asus CRW-5232A User Manual

Setting the Jumper Terminals

Set the jumpers to configure the device to either master or slave mode
before installing it into your computer chassis. The different modes are
discussed below. Select your desired mode by placing the jumper cap over
the pins.
Put the jumper caps properly over the pins to avoid damage to the drive.
Master Mode
Cover the two pins labeled MA (see illustration)
to set the CRW-5232A drive as a secondary
master drive. Select this mode if your computer
supports four IDE devices. The computer hard
drive is set as Primary Master.
Slave Mode
Cover the two pins labeled SL (see illustration) to
set the CRW-5232A drive as a slave device if
your computer supports only two IDE devices. If
your computer supports four IDE devices, this
mode sets your CRW-5232A drive as either
Primary or Secondary Slave.
Cable Select Mode
Cover the two pins labeled CS (see illustration)
if your computer supports a Cable Select
(CSEL) signal. You need an exclusive interface
cable for this mode. Refer to your computer
manual for details.
