SETUP – SD-M1912 DVD-ROM

The following steps must be performed to properly install your drive:

• Set Drive Jumper Settings

• Connect Audio Cable (optional)

• Attach IDE BUS Cable

• Attach Power Cable

• Mount Drive

Jumper Settings

The mode select jumpers are 6 straight angle pins located on the rear of the DVD-ROM drive. By placing a jumper on the pins, you can select the following functions:

CS SL Configures drive as Slave MA Configures drive as Master (default mode)

In most installations, jumper should remain in the MA position (factory default). It is recommended that you install your DVD-ROM drive only on the secondary IDE BUS. If you are installing on primary IDE BUS, your hard drive would then be the Master, and you should set your DVD-ROM drive to the Slave position (SL)

Drive is configured using host interface signal CSEL

Placing DVD-ROM Drive inside your Computer

Now that you have set the jumpers, you are ready to install your DVD-ROM drive inside your computer.

Important Note: Disconnect power from your computer system before beginning installation.

Remove computer cover and faceplate if required. Refer to your computer systems manual for removal information. If the DVD-ROM drive is replacing a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, remove drive presently installed in your system.

Your Toshiba DVD-ROM drive can be placed in any free half-height drive slot at the front of your computer. (It can be mounted horizontally or vertically.)

Carefully start sliding the DVD-ROM drive into the opening with the disc tray facing the front of the computer. Before you push the drive all the way in you will need to connect the IDE BUS cable, Audio cable and the Power cable on the back of the drive.

Connecting Cables

IDE BUS Cable (not supplied with drive) - Your computer system should have a primary and secondary IDE BUS, cable with your Hard Drive most likely being the Master on the primary BUS. Connect BUS cable as follows, assuring that pin 1 of cable (side with red stripe) is connected to pin 1 of the DVD-ROM drive's interface connector:

If you are replacing your CD-ROM or DVD: connect DVD-ROM drive to the BUS Cable connector that the CD-ROM or DVD was connected to.

If DVD-ROM drive is not replacing a CD-ROM/DVD or is an addition to a CD-ROM/DVD:

connect DVD-ROM drive to an open connector on the secondary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with drive).

If DVD-ROM drive is to be slave on Primary BUS: connect DVD-ROM drive to open connector on the primary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with drive).

Power Cable - Connect an internal computer power

supply cable to the power socket at the back of the DVD-ROM drive. One side of the plug has chamfered edges, so the power connector fits only one way. Push plug completely into the socket making sure the plug fits correctly.
