Pre-Installation Notes
Back Up Diskettes
The license agreement that is enclosed with your Pioneer product allows you to
make a backup of the driver diskettes, in case your originals become lost, damaged
or corrupted. We strongly recommend that you take this precautionary step before
you proceed with the installation of your software device drivers.
Your DOS operating system comes with a utility such as a [DISKCOPY] and/or
[COPY] command which you can use to make a duplicate disk. Follow the
instructions in your DOS manual. If you have a Macintosh, simply copy the files
to a back up floppy. Once the files have been backed up, it’s a good idea to date
and label the disk.
IBM-PC & Compatible Users, Check SCSI Host Adapter
Make sure the SCSI host adapter (interface card) you are using supports multiple
LUNs (Logical Unit Numbers). A Logical Unit Number is an address
assignment which allocates a separate drive letter to each of the 6 CD-ROM discs.
Example:
Floppy Drives
=
Drive Letters A and B
Hard Drive
=
Drive Letter C
CD-ROM Discs
=
Letters D,E,F,G,H, & I
Most SCSI host adapters do support multiple LUNs, but we recommend you
check the card’s documentation or call the manufacturer to verify that your
interface card will meet this requirement.
