System Requirements
You need the following equipment for installing the
CDS-3110 CD-ROM drive:
Introduction

4 CD-ROM User's Guide
• IBM PC/AT or compatible computer
• 3.5" floppy drive
• CDS-3110 Interface Card or compatible
• Multimedia sound card, such as the Orchid Tech-
nology SoundWave 32 or GameWave products
The CDS-3110 CD-ROM reads CD-ROM discs from
ISO9660 or High Sierra Group (HSG). It requires
MSDOS CD-ROM Extension (MSCDEX) and CDS-
3110 drivers in order for the CD-ROM to function
properly. See the Software Installation section for
more information on the drivers.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Before installing the CD-ROM drive, make sure that
thecomputerpoweristurnedoffandthepowercord
is disconnected from the wall socket.
Procedures:
1. Install the CD-ROM drive into a 5.25" bay of your
computer, using the mounting screws (see the
Figure below).
2. Verify the jumper settings of the Interface Card
(seesection"InterfaceCard"). NOTE: Pleasewrite
down your jumper settings for reference during
the software installation.
3. Install the Interface Card into an available 16-bit
slot on the motherboard.
4. Connectthe40-pindrive interfacecableatthe rear
of the CD-ROM drive (see Figure 1.2). Make sure
that Pin 1 on the cable (colored stripe) matches up
withPin1ontheCD-ROMdriveconnector. NOTE:
Pin 1 is close to the four-pin power connector.
5. Connect the other end of the 40-pin cable to the

Interface Card
The Interface Card connects to the CD-ROM drive
and supports 8-bit I/O, 8-bit DMA and 16-bit DMA.
TheI/O,DMAandIRQaddresssettingsmayneedto
be configured to avoid address conflict(s). Before
installing the Interface Card, verify the jumper set-
tings. Thejumperlocationsareshowninthediagram

Software Installation
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
In order to access your CD-ROM drive, two device
drivers are required. The MSCDEX.EXE program
(revision 2.21 or above) is the Microsoft CD-ROM
Extension file driver. The CDD.SYS program is the
CD-ROM driver.
The CD-ROM device drivers are automatically in-
stalled using the INSTALL.EXE program. In addi-
tion,the installprogram provides easysoftware con-
figuration of the CD-ROM hardware settings and
recommendations for use with network servers.
Using INSTALL.EXE
INSTALL.EXE is an easy-to-use menu driven instal-
lation program, which allows you to automatically
install the CD-ROM software device drivers to your
harddiskdrive. InserttheCD-ROMDriverDiskinto
your drive A: and type the following:
A:\INSTALL
From the CD-ROM Driver Installation menu, press
any key, and the following menu will appear:

From the Main Menu, select your installation choice
by using the < ↑ ↓> arrow keys and press <ENTER>.
Proceed through the installation as prompted by the
INSTALL.EXE program.
TheCD-ROMDriverInstallation selectionwillallow
you to software select the I/O, DMA and IRQ ad-
dresses for your CD-ROM drive. NOTE: The ad-
dresses selected must match the addresses on the
Interface Card. Once the software is installed, the
INSTALL program will automatically update your
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files with the
following command lines:
AUTOEXEC.BAT
C:\ORCHID\MSCDEX.EXE /d:MSCD0001 /M:10
CONFIG.SYS
DEVICE=C:\ORCHID\CDD.SYS /d:MSCD0001 /p:320

Oncethesoftwaresetupiscomplete,youmustreboot
your system. The CD-ROM drive is initialized on
bootup. If it does not initialize on bootup, you may
haveanI/O,DMAorIRQaddressconflict. Verifythe
address settings of the other peripherals in your
system to correct the address conflict(s).
Device Drivers
For any changes or modifications to the device driv-
ers, you may rerun the INSTALL program, use a text
editor such as MS-DOS "EDIT," or your favorite text
editingprogram. Thefollowingsyntaxisusedforthe
MSCDEX.EXE device driver:

/d: SpecifiesthedevicenameoftheCD-ROMdrive.
The driver1 parameter must match the param-
eter specified by the /D switch on the
CONFIG.SYS command that starts the corre-
sponding CD-ROM device driver.
The MSCDEX command must include at least
one /D switch. To install additional CD-ROM
devicedrivers,specifyan additional/Dswitch
for each device driver.
/l: Specifies the drive letter of the first CD-ROM
drive. If you have more than one CD-ROM
drive, MS-DOS assigns additional CD-ROM
drives subsequent available drive letters.
/m: Specifies the number of sector buffers.
/e SpecifiesthattheCD-ROMdriveruseexpanded
memory, if available, to store sector buffers.
/k Specifies that MS-DOS should recognize CD-
ROM volumes encoded in Kanji. By default,
MS-DOS does not recognize Kanji CD-ROM
volumes.
/s Enables sharing of CD-ROM drives on MS-
NET or Windows for Workgroups servers.
/v Directs MSCDEX to display memory statistics
when it starts.
