INTENDED USE
The DISCx000 Optical Libraries are controlled by a host computer or
combined server unit (NAS). The Optical Libraryes were designed
exclusively to read and write bare media, especially the Blue Laser (PDD,
PD, BD) media, CD/DVD media and are not intended for any other use.
Improper use of the Optical Libraryes may cause residual risks if they are
used or operated by unauthorized individuals. Any person who uses the
Optical Libraryes should read and understand the user´s manual and
especially the safety instructions.
Residual Risks
Disregarding the safety messages can cause damage to the unit or result in
personal injury. Ban of Arbitrary Reversions and Changes The Optical
Libraryes may not be altered due to applicable safety regulations.
BAN ON ARBITRARY REVERSIONS AND
CHANGES
The Optical Library must not be altered or changed in any way that does not
comply with applicable safety regulations.
REPAIRS
Repairs must be carried out only by DISC staff, or DISC authorized service
providers.
DISC will not be liable for any damage caused from repair by unauthorized
individuals. Repair by unauthorized individuals may void your warranty.

Fire Damages
To reduce fire or shock hazard, do not expose the units to rain or moisture.
OPENING THE UNIT
To prevent electrical shock, remove line cord before opening the unit!
Do not leave one of the side walls open while the Optical Library is
powered on! Beside danger of injury, incidence of light will disturb the
media detection and incomming dust may affect the read/write ability of
the media!
SAFETY
This product is in the used way a Laser Class 1 device. Disc access is
accomplished via a laser beam. The laser beam does not represent any risk for
the user.
This product complies with the DHHS Rules 21 CFR chapter 1, sub chapter J,
accession number 9520184, applicable at the date of manufacture.
Caution:
The built in drives become under Laser Class 2M and 3B radiation if they get
opened! This includes the risk of injury if you stare into the beam or expose
something to the beam. You must not remove and open an optical drive of
this Optical Library!

DVD-RAM, DVD-R and Blue Laser Media
These media, specifically DVD RAM and Blue Laser bare media (e.g. BluRay
Disc or HD DVD), are very sensitive to scratches and fingerprints. Please
handle writeable media with care. Damaged or polluted media might end in a
loss of data.
All bare media shall be handled outsite of the Optical Library within a certain
cover! To export bare media best use the DISC SmartPacksTM (removable
front site 15 pcs media magazines).
Even if the used DVD multirecorder drives support several types of DVD
recording, only DVD - R (’minus R’) general type media are certified for
professional data archiving on DVD. CD-R Media
Professional Disc Media (PDD and BD)
These Blue Laser bare media are very sensitive to scratches and
fingerprints. Please handle writeable media with care. Damaged or polluted
media might end in a loss of data.
All bare media shall be handled outsite of the Optical Library within a certain
cover! To export bare media best use the DISC SmartPacksTM (removable
front site 15 pcs media magazines).
DISC has qualified only writing and reading of media within the DISC
libraries. Externally recorded media have to get tested for functionality.
Same is valid for media that are recorded within the DISC libraries and shall
get read externally utilizing different systems and drives.
For qualification of certain drive/media compatibilities DISC offers its
MediaWatchTM services.
Please ask your sales contact for this DISC service.

Air Filter and Temperature Control
All DISCx000 Optical Libraryes are equipped with a fan and an air filter for
the cooling air flow and prevention of incoming dust.
Do not cover the air intake grill!
The air filter shall be checked for dust pollution at least once all half year!
If ’Temperature’ or ’FAN’ alarm ist dispayed, please check and if necessary
clean or replace the airfilter at the right hand cabinet side!

Transportation
Fixtures
REMOVING THE TRANSPORTATION FIXTURES
▼Removing the Transportation Fixtures DISC3-7000
1. Remove the two screws that affix the right cabinet cover of the Optical
Library.
2. Remove the right cabinet cover.
3. Remove the transportation fixtures inside the Optical Library.
▼Removing the Transportation Fixtures DISC1000
1. Remove the 14 screws that affix the right cabinet cover of the Optical
Library.
2. Remove the right cabinet cover.
3. Remove the transportation fixtures inside the Optical Library.
A more detailed information how to remove the transportation fixtures can be
found directly at the machine.
Powering up the Optical Library with transportation fixtures inside can cause
damage to the robotic!

MOUNTING THE STANDS
For safety reasons, the DISC 3-7000 Optical Libraries must not be operated
without the stands. To mount the stands of the
NSM/DISC 3-7000 Optical Libraries two persons are needed.
•Tilt the Optical Library a little bit to the left and push the two stands for the
right side into the holes at the bottom of the Optical Library until the stands
„click“ in.
•Tilt the Optical Library a little bit to the right and push the two stands for the
right side into the holes at the bottom of the Optical Library until the stands
„click“ in.
•Take care to mount the stands of the NSM/DISC7000 angled to the right
side! The feet have to stand to the outside (see photo):

PLACING THE OPTICAL LIBRARY
The DISCx000 Optical Libraries are intended for use in office and computer
networks.
After delivery the temperature of the Optical Library should be adapted
slowly to the temperature of the room before powering up the Optical Library.
Avoid places with
•extreme temperatures or excessive sun exposure
•high humidity
•contact with water or chemicals
•extreme vibrations
The right location
• has a stable, even support
• has sufficient space to pull out the unit
• has at least 10 cm of free space beside each side of the Optical Library
• has sufficient space or possibility to access the air filter module at the right
side of the machine

OPERATION MODES
The DISCx000 Optical Libraries offer several operation modes which can be
selected by the mode select switch at the back of the Optical Library. The
function of the ID switch depends on the selected mode. Which mode has to
be selected depends on the host application which is used to control the
robotic of the Optical Library.
Mode Function Function of ID Switch
0 0 RS232 mode RS232 ID (robotik)
1 SCSI mode SCSI ID (robotik)
2-F DISC internal
use only -------------
RS232 MODE
The RS 232 mode has to be selected if the robotic of the Optical Library
should be controlled via the serial interface (RS 232). The factory default for
the RS 232 ID is 00. The ID needs to be changed only, if more than one
Optical Library should be connected to the serial bus.
Do not connect more than 3 Optical Libraryes to the serial bus. If more
than 3 Optical Libraryes are connected to the serial bus, the signal
might be disturbed.
The maximum cable length of the serial bus must not exceed 15 m.

143715-F DISCx000 SAS Version 3.0 QuickInstallationsGuide
Rev. D 20
SCSI MODE
The SCSI mode has to be selected if the Optical Library should be controlled
over the SCSI bus. In the SCSI mode the ID switch is used to select the
SCSI ID of the Optical Library robotic.
If SCSI mode is selected, the robotic of the Optical Library allocates a SCSI ID
on the SCSI bus.
The ID range for the robotic SCSI ID is 0 to 7, default setting is 0.
The SCSI mode must be selected if the DISC Optical Library is controlled via
the SCSI bus. The ID switch is used to select the robotics SCSI ID. The range
for SCSI IDs is 00 to 07.
SCSI CABLE REQUIREMENTS
The quality of the SCSI cables affects the reliability and usage of a SCSI
system. The SCSI - III standard defines the characteristics of good cables.
They are 100 % shielded round cables that contain 34 twisted pairs of wires.
Each pair should have a characteristic impedance between 90 and 110 ohms.
The wire gauge should be 26 or 28. Most SCSI cables do not meet these
requirements.
Connector plating, shielding, grounding, strain relief, and the way the wires are
routed in the seath all affect the quality of your connection. It is advisable to
use only high quality SCSI cables.
Only best shielded 34 pair high quality AWG33 universal LVD SCSI cables
that meet the European Directive 2002/EC, Issue 13.02.2003, for RoHS
compliance shall be used to connect the DISCx000 robotics and drives!
The max. cable lengh of the external library – host interconnecting LVD
SCSI cable may be 9 meters.
The DISC libraries do have for the internal LVD SCSI bus 1 screw able
female 68pin HD connector at the back panel of the machine.
Every library (Optical Library) SCSI bus requires its own HBA channel !
No other external or server-internal devices may be connected to the
same bus that is connected to the Optical Library robotic!
