Introduction
The DVD-ROM drive reads digital data stored on DVD-ROM (Digital Versatile Disc), DVD-R, CD-R
or CD-RW.
The DVD-ROM drive supports the encryption algorithm CSS (Contents Scramble System)
developed to protect against illegal pirated copies of DVD videos.
The DVD-ROM drive supports the RPC-II (Phase II System of Regional Playback Control) function.
This function enables the final user to change the country code of the drive up to five times to play
back corresponding DVD videos.
The DVD-ROM drive has a Ultra-SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) interface. Therefore, in
order to operate the drive the system unit must have an appropriate SCSI host adapter and the
required SCSI drivers must be installed.
This manual contains all the information you require to install and operate the DVD-ROM drive
(short name: DVD drive).
Target group
To install the drive, you need some knowledge of hardware. Make sure you observe the instructions
in the "Important notes" chapter of your system unit's Operating Manual.
In the event of any problems occurring, please contact your sales outlet or our customer service
center.
Further information
For details of the drive mounting procedure refer to the Operating Manual or Technical Manual of
your system unit.
Information on the SCSI host adapter is contained in the Technical Manual of the SCSI host adapter
or in the Operating Manual or Technical Manual of your system unit.
Information on the required SCSI drivers is provided in the documentation accompanying the
software.

Setting the DVD drive
On the rear of the DVD drive there are eight jumpers.
POWER SUPPLY TEST PRV/ALW TERM ON/OFF PRTY ID4 ID2 ID1
!Jumper TEST is reserved and must not be inserted.
SCSI address (ID1, ID2, ID4)
The default SCSI address setting of the DVD drive is ID 3. If address ID 3 is already occupied by
another SCSI device, the address setting for the DVD drive must be changed with jumpers ID1, ID2
and ID4 according to the following table.
SCSI address ID1 ID2 ID4
address 7 + + +
address 6 – + +
address 5 + – +
address 4 – – +
address 3 ++–
address 2 – + –
address 1 + – –
address 0 – – –
+ = installed
– = not installed
Default setting:
Jumpers ID1 and ID2 inserted, jumper ID4 not inserted = address 3

Parity checking (PRTY)
"Parity bits" are used to check data transfer via the SCSI bus. The parity check should always be
active, if it is supported by the SCSI Host Adapter.
Jumper PRTY inserted = Parity check enabled
Jumper PRTY not inserted = Parity check disabled
Default setting:
Jumper PRTY inserted = Parity check enabled
Terminating resistor (TERM ON/OFF)
The TERM ON/OFF jumper is used to switch the active terminating resistor on and off.
The terminating resistor must be switched on if the DVD drive is connected as the last drive on the
SCSI bus. If another device is connected behind the DVD drive, the terminating resistor of the DVD
drive must be switched off (jumper not inserted).
Jumper TERM ON/OFF inserted = terminating resistor switched on
Jumper TERM ON/OFF not inserted = terminating resistor switched off
Default setting:
Jumper TERM ON/OFF inserted = terminating resistor switched on
Removing DVD (PRV/ALW)
You can lock the eject button by means of the jumper PRV/ALW (PREVENT/ALLOW). The DVD can
then be ejected only by the means of a software command.
Jumper PRV/ALW inserted = Removing prevented
Jumper PRV/ALW not inserted = Removing possible
Default setting:
Jumper PRV/ALW not inserted = Removing possible
Termination power (POWER SUPPLY)
The POWER SUPPLY jumper sets the power supply for the terminating resistors. The terminating
resistors can be provided with power by the drive or the SCSI bus.
Jumper POWER SUPPLY inserted = Power supply via the drive
Jumper POWER SUPPLY not inserted = Power supply via the SCSI bus
Default setting:
Jumper POWER SUPPLY not inserted = Power supply via the SCSI bus
Mounting the DVD drive
The DVD drive requires a 5 ¼ inch "half-height" slot. It can be installed horizontally or vertically. You
are recommended to install the drive horizontally.
iIf the DVD drive is operated in a horizontal position, both 8-cm and 12-cm CDs or DVDs
may be used. If the drive is operated in a vertical position, only 12-cm diameter CDs or
DVDs may be used.

Install the DVD drive as described in "Installing a disk drive" in the Technical Manual or in the
Operating Manual of the system unit.

Installing the driver software required
iWindows 95/98, Windows 2000 and Windows NT already contain the necessary drivers for
reading DVD-ROM and CD-ROM media.
To play DVD videos (MPEG-2), you also require an DVD player (MPEG-2 hardware or
software). A DVD player is not included in the consignment of the DVD drive.
As the drive supports the function RPC-II (Phase II System of Regional Playback Control),
the DVD player must also support the function RPC-II. This function enables the final user
to change the country code of the drive up to five times to play back corresponding DVD
videos. After the fifth change, the last country code set remains permanently set in the
drive. It is then not possible to make further changes.
To operate the DVD drive under MS-DOS and Windows 3.xx, you require the program MSCDEX.EXE
and the Adaptec device driver EZ-SCSI 5.0. The driver is located on the "Drivers & Utilities" CD.

The Adaptec driver EZ-SCSI 5.0 supplements the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files as
shown below:
Example:
CONFIG.SYS
DEVICE=C:\SCSI

ASPICD.SYS

/D:ASPICD0
AUTOEXEC.BAT
C:\SCSI\MSCDEX.EXE

/D:ASPICD0

/M:12
iIf your system uses the memory manager EMM386.EXE, the new line must be inserted
behind the EMM386.EXE line in the CONFIG.SYS file.

Change - if necessary - the LASTDRIVE entry in the CONFIG.SYS file (e. g. LASTDRIVE=F).

Reboot the system so that the changes to the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files become
effective.
iWith the installed driver you can play CDs and DVDs in the DVD drive using the ISO 9660
file system.
