Introduction
The TEAC CD-RW drive can write to CD-R discs at a maximum of 12X speed, re­write to CD-RW discs at 10X speed, and read CD-ROM discs at 32X speed. (It is also capable of operating at slower speeds, if preferred.) CD-R discs enable you to create audio or data discs for permanent archival storage. They cannot be overwritten. You can overwrite CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs, typically up to 1,000 times.
The TEAC CD-RW drive is a SCSI device designed for use in IBM PC or compatible computers that feature a SCSI adapter card. The drive features a 5.25-inch standard chassis and a powered tray for convenient disc loading.

Setting the SCSI ID Number
Configuring the CD-RW Drive
Before you can install and operate the TEAC CD-W512S CD-RW drive, you need to do the following:
Install a SCSI adapter card in the host computer. For optimum performance, a PCI bus master SCSI adapter card (such as an Adaptec 2940 or equivalent) is recommended. Please refer to the SCSI adapter card documentation for installation instructions.
Set the SCSI ID number on the rear panel of the CD-RW drive
Terminate the CD-RW drive if it is located at the end of the SCSI chain.
Setting the SCSI ID Number
To set the SCSI ID number on the CD-RW drive, you must set jumpers on the rear panel of the unit.
jumper
jumper pins
You set the SCSI ID number for the CD-RW drive by placing jumpers in various combinations on jumper pin pairs S0, S1, and S2. (“S” indicates a jumper pin pair number.) The following table indicates the appropriate pin combinations. “Close” indicates that you should place a jumper on the specified jumper pins. “Open” indicates that you should not place a jumper on the specified pins (leaving the connection “open”). For example, to set the CD-Recorder to SCSI ID 5, you would place jumpers on jumper pin pairs S0 and S2.
The factory default setting is SCSI ID 3 (S0 and S1 closed).

Terminating the CD-RW Drive

Terminating the CD-RW Drive
If you position the CD-RW drive at the end of a SCSI chain, you must “terminate” the CD-RW drive; however, do not terminate the CD-RW drive if it is not physically connected at the end of the SCSI chain.
If jumper pin S4 is closed (that is, if the jumper is seated on both pins), the CD-RW drive is terminated. If S4 is open (i.e., the jumper is not seated on both pins), the CD­RW drive is not terminated.
