External Drive Installation - Plextor 412-2 Hardware Installation

If your computer has only a 3.5" floppy disk drive, you may find that you do not have
a power connector that is the correct size to plug into your CD-R drive. Once again,
you can turn to your local computer store for a splitter to solve this problem.
A third cable, an audio cable, must be used if there is a soundboard in your system.
This cable runs from the four-pin audio output connector on the rear panel of your
drive to your soundboard. See page 33 for more information about audio cables.
Installation of your internal drive is now complete. Skip to page 32.

External Drive Installation

YOUR TASK:
Connect cables from your external drive to your PC
or Mac. Check to see if switch, dial, and terminator
settings need to be adjusted.
YOUR OBJECTIVE: A well-functioning drive that does not conflict with
any other peripherals in your computer system.
YOUR METHOD: Follow directions below for making cable
connections. Review your current computer setup
to see if the potential for conflicts exists. If so, make
necessary switch, dial, and/or terminator changes.
If you are installing a single PX-R412CSe and you have no other SCSI peripherals
attached to your system, you should leave the switches, dial, and terminator found
on the rear panel of your drive at their factory settings. If you do have additional SCSI
peripherals (e.g., scanner, printer) attached to your computer, you may need to change
your dial and terminator settings. See Chapters 6 and 7 for information on how to
change these settings.
If you are installing a single PX-R412CSe external drive, connect it as shown on the
next page.
