To connect the CDU77E directly to the PC's IDE port, consult your PC

drive):
A flat-blade screwdriver
Four screws 3 mm in diameter and 6 mm in length.

10 Installing the Drive in Your Computer

Setting the Jumpers

Set the jumpers on the rear of the drive in accordance with the
configuration of your computer system.
The jumpers are preset at the "MASTER" position as illustrated at the
factory.
Notes for configuration jumpers:
Designation of the Drive Number is generally set by inserting a jumper
pin on either the MASTER or the SLAVE pin.
When the CDU77E is daisy-chained with a Hard Disk Drive on an IDE
Card, set the Hard Disk Drive as MASTER and the CDU77E as
SLAVE.
If the CDU77E is the only device connected to the IDE Card, set the
CDU77E as MASTER.
However, it should be noted that some personal computers may use CSEL
in lieu of the foresaid MASTER/SLAVE selection. In this case, remove the
existing jumpers from MASTER and SLAVE, and set a jumper on CSEL.
When the CSEL signal of the interface connector is set low, the drive is
designated as Drive 0. When the CSEL is set high, the drive is designated
as Drive 1.
Consult your PC manufacturer, IDE Card manufacturer or dealer for
further details.
