Installation and Connection

Note:

To use the TEAC CD-ROM drive an IDE
(ATAPI) controller is required. Usually it is in-
tegrated on the system board of your PC. The
drivers required  for operating the CD-ROM
drive are a part of your operating system.

Very important:

Switch off your PC and any attached devices
and disconnect  the power cord(s). It is not
sufficent to switch off the power switch! Do
the same if the CD-ROM drive is reconfigured.

(1)

Open the case of your PC and lift it off carefully.

(2)

Configure the CD-ROM drive if neccessary.

(3)

Locate a free slot for 5.25” drives and install the
drive using the provided four screws.

(4)

Connect the power cable and the 40-pin data cable
(assure the correct orientation, pin 1 is often
marked with a color stripe) to the drive. Connect-
ing in the wrong orientation may damage the drive
and the PC!

the manual of the sound card to find the connec-
tor in question.

(6)

Close the case of the PC. Do not forget to connect
other devices and accessories if there are any.

Remarks

X

Master: CD-ROM drive is configured as first IDE

drive (basic setting).
This configuration can be used only if the drive is
connected to the second IDE controller

(secondary IDE). If a hard disk is already operated

at the secondary IDE controller (configured as
master) the jumper setting at the CD-ROM has to
be changed to slave.

X

Slave: CD-ROM drive is configured as second IDE
drive.

If there is only one hard disk in the PC the CD-
ROM can be operated at the same IDE connection
parallel to this hard disk. Important: The data rates

of both devices may be decreased.

X

Cable Select: Master/slave detection is achieved
by the controller.
