HP 9153A/9154A Disk Drives
Installation Procedure
The following procedure describes how to connect your HP 9153A and HP
9154A to your Series 200/300 computer. Before you do this, however, refer to
the manual(s) that came with the drive to:
• Unpack the drive.
• Check the voltage switch setting.
• Check the fuse value.
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 or HP 98624A HP-IB Interface
3. Set the Address.
a. On the back of the disk drive, find the HP-IB address wheel, labeled
"ADDRESS."
b. Set the HP-IB address:
• If this is the first (or only) disk or tape drive you intend to connect to
the interface, set the "ADDRESS" wheel to 0, unless address 0 has
already been used.
• If there is only one other disk or tape drive (besides this HP 9153/54)
already connected to the interface, set the "ADDRESS" wheel to 2,
unless address 2 has already been used.
• If there are two other disk or tape drives (besides this HP 9153/54)
already connected to the interface, set the "ADDRESS" wheel to 3,
unless address 3 has already been used. If it has, choose any unused
address.
