Page 17
Introduction Set the SCSI Address The CD-ROM drive must have a unique SCSI target address. The CD-ROM drive’sjumpers are set at the factory to the SCSI default address of 2, as shown in Figure 1–3. You must also ensure that the operating mode jumpers are set for correct drive operation.
Introduction Address Jumpers To set the drive’s address, use the SCSI address jumpers. Perform the following steps to set the drive’s address: Attach the static-grounding wrist strap by following the instructions on the package that contains the strap. Attach one end of the strap to the system chassis. Locate the address jumpers on the rear of the CD-ROM drive, as shown in Figure 1–3.
Introduction Preparing the System Perform the following steps to prepare the system for the CD-ROM drive installation: Determine the existing SCSI address settings currently in use on your system. Before installing the drive, determine which SCSI ID address settings are already being used on your system by completing the following steps: If you are using HP-UX 9.x, enter the following at the prompt: /etc/ioscan –d scsi...

Introduction Single-Ended SCSI Bus Configuration Constraints For the single-ended SCSI bus, HP-UX supports only one of each type of removable- media disk drive (i.e., floppy disk, CD-ROM, or magneto-optical drives) and two of the same type tape devices (i.e., 4-mm DDS tape drives or 9-track tape drives) per SCSI bus. You may connect no more than seven SCSI devices to each single-ended SCSI bus.
Page 23
Introduction Table 1–1. Single-Ended SCSI Bus Configuration Constraints (per bus) Maximum Number of Each Single-Ended SCSI Devices Type of Device Allowed Hard Disk Drives Floppy Disk Drives CD-ROM Drives 4-mm DDS Tape Drives 9-Track Tape Drives 650-MB Magneto-Optical Drives Magneto-Optical Autochangers (see NOTICE below) 8-mm Cartridge Tape Subsystem 8 Serial Port Terminal Server Maximum Number of SCSI Devices (per bus)
Page 24
The last device connected to the SCSI bus must be terminated with a SCSI terminator. Use a Hewlett-Packard K2291 50-pin low-density bail-lock active terminator or a Hewlett-Packard C2904A high-density thumbscrew active terminator to terminate the last SCSI option device.
Introduction Powering Off the Workstation and any Peripherals To power off the workstation and any peripherals, perform the following steps: Power off the workstation, using the power switch on the front of the workstation. CAUTION: Do not power off your workstation without first shutting down HP-UX.

The disc tray has four disc holders which are used when the CD-ROM drive is mounted vertically. The CD-ROM drive may be mounted with the EJECT button positioned up or down. The disc holders slide to hold the disc in place.
Page 32
Using Your CD-ROM Drive Loading a CD-ROM Disc in a Horizontally Mounted Drive This CD-ROM drive has an automatic loading/ejecting feature. To load a disc in the CD-ROM drive, follow these steps: Check that the workstation is powered on. To open the disc tray, press and release the load/eject button on the CD-ROM drive. Ensure the disc holders are slid away from disc.
Page 33
Using Your CD-ROM Drive Unloading a CD-ROM Disc from a Horizontally Mounted Drive Perform the following steps to unload a disc from the CD-ROM drive: Press the eject button to eject the disc tray from the drive. If the drive is in use, you must unmount the disc to eject the disc tray.
Page 34
Using Your CD-ROM Drive Loading a CD-ROM Disc in a Vertically Mounted Drive NOTICE: This procedure is the same for a CD-ROM drive mounted with the EJECT button positioned up or down. Slide the two disc holders at the bottom of the tray towards each other until they snap into place, as shown in Figure 2–5.
Page 35
Using Your CD-ROM Drive Slide the disc holders at the top of the tray towards the disk until the snap into place so that they hold the disc in the tray. To close the disc tray, push the front of the disc tray gently towards the drive until it closes by itself.
