Introduction

ongratulations on the purchase of your Toshiba

XM-6401B CD-ROM drive. This manual will

operate your new CD-ROM.

This manual covers both the internal CD-ROM (XM-6401B) and the external CD-ROM (TXM6401F1). Instructions in this manual apply to both models, unless otherwise stated.

The XM-6401B is one of the fastest CD-ROM drives currently available. Features include:

➬ 40X speed Brings leading edge performance.

➬ Tray operation No need to use a caddy. Just open tray, drop in

➬ 85ms Random Seek XM-6401B’s great performance makes it

provide you with the information you will need to install and

a disc, and close tray.

ideal for data and multimedia applications.

➬ 6,000kb/s Sustained Transfer Rate Fast enough for the most

demanding applications.

SCSI DRIVES

he XM-6401B is a SCSI-2 (Small Computer Systems Interface) device. Some other SCSI devices you may already have

other CD-ROM drive.

PC SYSTEMS: To add a SCSI device to your computer, you must have a SCSI interface card already in place. The interface card fits into one of the slots inside your computer and connects to your CD-ROM device via a SCSI cable.

Your CD-ROM also requires a software driver to be installed. This driver is written for the SCSI interface card you are using. If you do not have the CD software driver, contact your SCSI card manufacturer (do not contact Toshiba).

APPLE MACINTOSH SYSTEMS: If you are connecting the XM6401B CD-ROM to an Apple Macintosh system, there is no need to install an interface card, as Apple systems have a built-in SCSI port. You will need a CD-ROM software driver written for the Macintosh that supports Toshiba CD-ROMs. (Toshiba recommends CD-ROM Tool Kit by FWB Inc.)*

connected to your computer are scanners, tape drives, or an-

Concepts (AMC), 888-262-9700.

Installing CD-ROM

efore you begin to install your CD-ROM, make sure you

have the items listed below. In most cases, these items will

tailer to purchase them.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

❑

❑ SCSI Host Adapter Board (PC systems only)

❑ SCSI Interface Cable

❑ External Terminator (TXM6401F1 installations only)

❑ Power Cord (TXM6401F1 installations only)

INSTALLING AN INTERNAL CD-ROM (XM-6401B)

not come with your CD-ROM. See your local computer re-

CD-ROM Software Driver (when installing on a PC the software

driver must be written for the SCSI host adapter card you have installed in your computer system)

The instructions that follow are for use on PC systems only. In order

to install your internal CD-ROM successfully, you will need to complete the following steps:

☛ Install SCSI host adapter board in your computer system (if not

already installed).

☛ Set jumper settings on CD-ROM.

☛ Install CD-ROM inside your computer.

☛ Using a SCSI cable, connect CD-ROM to SCSI interface card.

☛ Connect +5/+12V power cable to internal CD-ROM drive.

☛ Connect a sound cable to your CD-ROM (optional).

☛ Load CD-ROM driver software (driver is obtained from your SCSI

host adapter manufacturer).

IMPORTANT NOTE

Before you begin installing your CD-ROM, make sure your computer is switched OFF and the power cable is disconnected.

CD-ROM JUMPER SETTINGS

In order for your CD-ROM to work properly, it may be necessary for you to change the CD-ROM’s jumper settings.

Locate the block of jumpers on the back left side of the CD-ROM.

Jumper Location

Jumpers can be set in either an ON mode or OFF mode. If the jumper covers both pins on the jumper block, it is ON, if there is no jumper or only one of the pins is jumpered, the jumper is OFF. This section will discuss the following jumper settings: SCSI ID, Parity, Eject, Test/ Audio Reproduction, Termination, and Power Supply.

All SCSI devices attached to your computer are assigned a SCSI-ID number from 0 to 7. Your CD-ROM’s SCSI ID must be set so that its ID number does not conflict with any other device’s SCSI-ID in your system. In most cases your CD-ROM will come set to SCSI ID 0. If your CD-ROM is the only SCSI device connected to your computer, you should leave the jumpers as they are. If you have additional SCSI devices (another CD-ROM, hard drive, etc.) you will be “daisy-chaining” these devices. Each SCSI device must have a different SCSI ID. Note that your SCSI interface card in most cases has a SCSI ID of 7. The chart below shows the jumper settings for the eight possible ID numbers:

Parity Jumper

The Parity Jumper should be set to OFF (no jumper present). This jumper activates/de-activates the parity bit check function on the SCSI data bus. This enhances data bus reliability. (Cannot be used if no parity generation function is provided on the I/F card.)

TOSHIBA XM-6401B/TXM6401F1 CD-ROM Drive 5

Terminator ON/OFF Jumper

This jumper turns termination power ON or OFF. If you are “daisychaining” a series of SCSI devices (connecting more than one SCSI device to your system), and the XM-6401B CD-ROM is not at the end of the chain, you must remove the jumper.

Eject Prevention Jumper

This jumper is used to inhibit the operation of the drive’s EJECT button. When jumper is set to ON (jumper present), the EJECT button will not operate. Setting the jumper to OFF (no jumper present) will allow the EJECT button to operate.

Test/Audio Reproduction Jumper

The TEST jumper should be set to OFF (no jumper present). Setting it in the ON position (jumper present) will provide audio disc reproduction (note: SCSI-ID must be set to 0). In audio mode the CD will begin at track 1 and continue to the end of the CD. To advance to the next track, push eject button for less than a second. Pushing the button for more than a second opens the CD tray. When you are in audio disc reproduction mode, commands from the host computer are ignored.

Power Supply Jumper (Termination Power Jumper)

Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM drives can supply power to other equipment on the SCSI BUS. When the jumper is ON, the drive will supply termination power. At least one device on the SCSI BUS must supply the termination power. If you’re not sure if any other device supplies termination power, it is fine to leave the jumper ON.
