red-colored stripe is on the side of the power connector. On your IDE controller there is a label or mark
that indicates pin 1. The red stripe will be on the side of pin 1.
Some points to keep in mind when choosing a setup:
A) The CD-ROM drive should be used either as a slave (with a master) or as a stand-alone device.
B) The KanguruDisk is removable. If you are going to be running your PC without a KanguruDisk in
your KanguruDock make sure your configuration accommodates the possibility of having no
EIDE device connected at times. (In this case use the dock as a stand-alone device or daisy chain
it as a slave to a device jumpered to “single”. This way you won’t have to modify jumpers inside
the PC when you take out your KanguruDisk!)
C) For better performance benefits, keep UDMA devices (like the KanguruDisk) on a separate
controller than non-UDMA devices.
D) Adjust the jumper settings on your E/IDE devices according to your new setup. Most devices
will specify on their exterior the possible jumper settings and where the jumpers are located. For
jumper information you may need to refer to any product manuals or information provided with
your hard drive(s) or CD-ROM.
E) The KanguruDisk jumper settings are on the back of the drive in the form of three small switches.
Refer to the bottom of the drive for the switch configurations and how they correspond to jumper
settings (slave, master, and single).
Step 3: Connect the power supply to the KanguruDock.
The KanguruDock has a power connector on the back, next to the 40-pin ribbon cable. Firmly connect
this cable to any one of your PC’s available power supply cables.
Step 4: Insert the KanguruDisk and boot your computer.
CAUTION: NEVER insert or remove the KanguruDisk with the power on!
Insert the KanguruDisk firmly into the KanguruDock; reconnect your PC’s power; and boot up your
computer.
*For the sake of troubleshooting, you may not want to close up your PC until you are certain the
installation was successful. If your PC does not boot up please see the troubleshooting chapter.
Adjusting Your CMOS
You must now tell the computer, through the CMOS, how the new device is setup. To enter CMOS,
press the delete key during the memory count test. See your system documentation or watch your boot-up
screen closely for more information about entering CMOS.
Once in the CMOS setup program locate the options that deal with internal devices. This is under
‘Standard CMOS setup’ (from the main CMOS menu) or the primary CMOS screen itself.
Write down the information on your CMOS screen before making any changes. This way you
will be able to return to your original setup if the need arises.
If you have Enhanced IDE, you will see four devices. In the CMOS these are called primary master,
primary slave, secondary master, and secondary slave. (Keep in mind, the exact wording varies depending
on your particular system.)
Set all four devices to an auto-detect mode. If you do not have an auto-detect mode available, you
must run an auto-detect utility to configure the CMOS. Refer to your system manuals for specific CMOS
setup instructions.
