SETUP – SD-R5372V
The following steps must be performed to properly install your drive:
•Set Drive Jumper Settings
•Connect Audio Cable
•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 Rewriteable drive.
By placing a jumper on the pins, you can select the following functions:
CS Drive is configured using host interface signal CSEL
SL Configures drive as Slave
MA Configures drive as Master (default mode)
Figure 1.Mode Select Jumper
In most installations, jumper should remain in the MA position (factory default). It is recommended that
you install your DVD Rewriteable 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 Rewriteable drive to
the Slave position (SL)
