Installation Procedure
Before you connect your disk drive to your computer, refer to the manual(s)
that came with the disk drive to:
• Unpack the disk drive.
• Check that your proposed site for the HP 7907 A meets environmental
requirements.
• Check the voltage setting.
• Check the fuse.
And now, the installation procedure ...
1. Play It Safe.
Turn your computer and disk drive off, if they are not already off.
2. Select Your Interface.
Select one of the following interfaces, listed in order of preference for
optimum disk performance:
• HP 98625 Disk Interface
• Built-in HP-IB Interface
3. Set the Address.
a. On the back of the disk drive, find the set of four switches labeled
"HP-IB ADDRESS."
b. Set the HP-IB address:
• If there is only one other disk or tape drive (besides this HP 7907 A)
already connected to the interface, set the "HP-IB ADDRESS"
switches to 2 as shown in Figure 6-2, unless address 2 has been used
elsewhere.
