                         +--------+

 The permissible orientations of the IDD are shown above, and the
 tolerance of the angle is   5* from the horizontal plane.


 Mounting frame structure
 ------------------------
 Generally, SG an FG are connected at one point in the system
 enclosure. Therefore, use following procedure to maintain the
 insulation when mounting the IDD:

 a) Use the frame with an embossed structure or the like to avoid
    contact between the DE base and FG. Mount the IDD with making a
    gap of 2.5 mm or more between the IDD and the frame of the system.

 b) The inward projection of the screw from the IDD frame wall at the
    corner must be 4 mm or less.

 Limitatation of side-mounting: When the drive is mounted using side
 screw holes, do not use the center hole.


 External magnetic field
 -----------------------
 The drive should not be installed near the ferromagnetic body like a
 speaker to avoid the influence of the external magnetic field.


 Ambient temperature
 -------------------
 When the IDD is operating, the ambient temperature measured 3 cm from
 the disk enclosure (DE) surface and from the PCA surface must satisfy
 the specified requirement. For the DE surface temperature at opera-
 ting, the contact temperature at the measurement point must satisfy
 the specified requirement.


 Sequential starting of spindle motors
 -------------------------------------
 After the power is turned on to the IDD, a large amount of current
 flows in the +12 V DC line when the spindle motor rotation starts.
 Therefore, if more than one IDD is used, the spindle motors should
 be started sequentially using one of the following procedures to pre-
 vent overload of the power supply unit.

 1. Issue START/STOP UNIT commands at 20-second intervals to start
    the spindle motors.

 2. Turn on the +12 V DC power in the power supply unit at 20-second
    intervals to start the spindle motors sequentially.


 Noise filter
 ------------
 To eliminate AC line noise, a noise filter should be installed at the
 AC input terminal on the IDD power supply unit. The specification of
 this noise filter is as follows:

       Attenuation:          40 dB or more at 10 MHz.
       Circuit construction: T-configuration is recommended.


 SCSI cable
 ----------
 All SCSI devices on one bus are daisy-chained with an SCSI cable.
 A terminating resistor must be mounted in the SCSI device at each end
 of the SCSI cable.

 The maximum number of SCSI devices that can be connected to the SCSI
 bus is 8, including the host adapter, IDD, and other SCSI equipment.

 The maximum length of the SCSI cable is as follows. If more than one
 SCSI device is connected, the total cable length must not exceed the
 following.

 8-BIT, 6m cable length, Single-Ended
 16-BIT, 3m cable length, Single-Ended (Up to 6m is allowable for 5
 MB/s or less).
 8/16-Bit, 25m cable length, Differential

 For the SCSI cables, the use of 25- and 34-pair twisted pair cables
 satisfying the requirements in the following table is recommended.

 +----------------+-----------------------+----------------------+
 |Requirements    | 8-bit SCSI (25-pair)  | 16-bit SCSI (34-pair)|
 +----------------+-----------------------+----------------------+
 |Conductor size  | 28 AWG or bigger      | 30 AWG or bigger     |
 +----------------+-----------------------+----------------------+
 |Characteristic  |                 90 to 132                    |
 |impedance       |                                              |
 +----------------+----------------------------------------------+
 |Twist pair cable| Pins n and n+1          Pins n and n+33      |
 |condition       | (n: odd number)                              |
 +----------------+----------------------------------------------+


 DC ground
 ---------
 The DC ground cable must always be connected to the IDD because no
 faston terminal dedicated to SG is provided with the IDD. Therefore,
 when SG and FG are connected in the system, it is necessary to
 connect SG and FG at the power supply or to connect SG of the power
 supply to FG of the system.


 External operator panel
 -----------------------
 The external operator panel is installed only when required for the
 system. If it is unnecessary, pins 01 and 02 of CN20 and pins 01 to
 06 of CN4: connector for the external operator panel on the IDD must
 be opened.


 SCSI bus configuration
 ----------------------
 Up to eight SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can
 be connected to the SCSI bus for the 8-bit SCSI and up to 16 SCSI
 devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the
 SCSI bus for the 16-bit SCSI in any combination.

 For example, the system can be configured as multi-host system on
 which multiple host computers that operate as initiator or connected
 through the SCSI bus.

 Using disconnect/reconnect function, concurrent input/output
 processing is possible on multi-SCSI devices.

 8-bit SCSI Connector
 --------------------
 The connector for the SCSI bus is an unshielded standard connector
 which has two 25-pin rows spaced 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) apart.


 16-bit SCSI Connector
 ---------------------
 The connector for the SCSI bus is an unshielded P connector
 conforming to SCSI-3 type which has two 34-in rows spaced 1.27 (0.05
 inch) apart.


 Installation
 ------------
 a) Do not connect or disconnect connectors or change terminal except
    pin 5-6 of CN6 (offline self-diagnostics)/pin 5-6 of CN7 (write
    protect) when power is turned on.

 b) Do not move the drive when power is turned on or until the drive
    completely stops (for 30 seconds) after power is truned off.


 Mounting procedures
 -------------------
 Since mounting the drive depends on the system cabinet structure,
 determine the work procedures considering the requirements specific
 to each system. The general mounting method and items to be checked
 are shown below.

 1) With a system to which an external operator panel is mounted, if
    it is difficult to access the connector after the drive is
    mounted on the system cabinet, connect the external operator
    panel cable before mounting the drive.

 2) Fix the drive in the system cabinet with four mounting screws as
    follows:

  - The drive has 10 mounting holes (both sides: 3x2, bottom: 4). Fix
    the drive by using four mounting holes of both sides or the
    bottom.

  - Use mounting screws whose lengths inside the drive mounting frame
    are 4 mm or less when the screws ae tightened.

  - When mounting the drive, be careful not to damage parts on the
    PCAs.

 3) Check that the DE (signal ground) does not touch the system
    cabinet chassis (frame ground). There must be a 2.5 mm or more
    space between the DE and chassis.


 Connecting Cables
 -----------------
 Connect the IDD and system with the following cables.

 - Power cable

 - SCSI cable

 - External operator panel cable (if required)

 - Spindle sync cable

 The general procedures and notes on connecting cables are described
 below. Especiallly, pay attention to the inserting direction of each
 cable connector.

 WARNING
 Check that system power is off before connecting or disconnecting
 cables. Do not connect or disconnect cables when power is on.

 a) Connect power cable

 b) Connect the external operator panel (if required for the system)

 c) Connect the SCSI cable

 d) Fix the cables so that they do not touch the DE and PCAs, or so
    that the smooth flow of the cooling air in the system cabinet is
    assured.

 NOTES
 1. Be careful of the insertion directions of the SCSI connectors.
    With the system in which terminating resistor power is supplied
    via the SCSI cable, if the power is turned on, the overcurrent
    protection fuse of the terminating resistor power supplier may be
    blown or the cable may be burnt if overcurrent protection is not
    provided.

    When the recommended parts are used, inserting cables in the
    wrong direction can be prevented.

 2. To connect SCSI devices, be careful of the connection position
    of the cable. Check that the SCSI device with the terminating
    resistor is the last device connected to the cable.

 510 KB multi-segment buffer
 ---------------------------
 Data is transferred between SCSI bus and disk media through the
 embedded 510 KB data buffer in the IDD. This buffer can be devided
 into maximum 32 areas. This feature provides the suitable usage
 environment for users.

 Since the initiator can control the disconnect/reconnect timing on
 the SCSI bus by specifying the condition of stored data to the data
 buffer or empty condition of the data buffer, the initiator can
 perform the effective input/output operations with utilizing high
 data transfer capability of the SCSI bus regardless of actual data
 transfer rate of the disk drive.


 Read-ahead cache feature
 ------------------------
 After executing the READ command, the IDD reads automatically and
 stores (prefetches) the subsequent data blocks into the data buffer
 (Read-ahead caching).

 The high speed sequential data access can be achieved by transferring
 the data from the data buffer without reaccessing the disk in case
 the subsequent command requests the prefetched data blocks.


 Error recovery
 --------------
 The IDD can try to recover from errors in SCSI bus or the disk drive
 using its powerful retry processing. If a recoverable data check
 occurs, error-free data can be transferred to the initiator after
 being corrected in the data buffer. The initiator software is
 released from the complicated error recover processing by these error
 recovery functions of the IDD.


 Defective block slipping
 ------------------------
 A logical data block can be reallocated in a physical sequence by
 slipping the defective data block at formatting. This results in high
 speed contiguous data block processing without a revolution delay due
 to defective data block.


 Microcode downloading
 ---------------------
 The IDD implements the microcode download feature. This feature
 achieves easy maintainability of the IDD and function enhancing.


 SCSI/CCS standard
 -----------------
 The IDD provides not only SCSI basic functions but also the
 following features:

 - Arbitration
 - Disconnection/reselection
 - Data bus parity
 - Command set which meets the logical specification of the SCSI CCS
   (Common Command Set for Direct Access Device) requirements.

 The SCSI commands can manipulate data through logical block
 addressing regardless of the physical characteristics of the disk
 drive. This allows software to accommodate future expansion of
 system functions.


 Data security at power failure
 ------------------------------
 Integrity of the data on the disk is guaranteed against all forms of
 DC power failure except on blocks where a write operation is being
 performed. The above does not applied to formatting disks or
 assigning alternate blocks.


 ECC
 ---
 16-byte data error detection/correction code for the data field. It
 is possible to on-the-fly, single burst errors with lengths of up to
 19 bits, correct single burst errors with lengths of up to 46 bits,
 correct triple burst errors with lengths of up to 10 bits, and
 detect quadruple burst errors with lenght of up to 10 bits.


 Defect list
 -----------
 Information of the defect location on the disk is managed by the
 defect list. The following are defect lists which the IDD manages.

 - P list (Primary defect list): This list consists of defect location
   information available at the disk drive shipment and is recoreded
   in a system space. The defects in this list are permanent, so the
   INIT must execute the alternate block allocation using this list
   when initializing the disk.

 - D list (Data defect list): This list consists of defect location
   information specified in a FORMAT UNIT command by the INIT at the
   initialization of the disk. This information is recorded in the
   system space of the disk drive as the G list. To execute the
   alternate block allocation, the FORMAT UNIT command must be
   specified.

 - C list (Certification defect list): This list consists of location
   information on defective blocks which are detected by the verifying
   operation (certification) of the data block after the initiation
   when executing the FORMAT UNIT command. The IDD generates this
   information when executing the FORMAT UNIT command, and the
   alternate block allocation is made upon the defective block. This
   information is recorded in the system space of the disk drive as
   the G list

 - G list (Growth defect list): This list consists of defective
   logical data block location information specified in a REASSIGN
   BLOCKS command by the INIT, information on defective logical data
   blocks assigned alternate blocks by means of IDD automatic
   alternate block allocation, information specified as the D list,
   and information generated as the C list. They are recoreded in the
   system space on the disk drive.

 The INIT can read out the contents of the P and G lists by the READ
 DEFECT DATA command.


 Formatting
 ----------
 Since the disk drive is formatted with a specific (default) data
 format for each model (part number) when shipped from the factory,
 the disk need not be formatted (initialized) when it is installed in
 the system.

 However, when the system needs data attributes different from the
 default format, all sides of the disk must be formatted (initialized)
 according to the procedures below.

 The user can change the following data attributes at initialization:

  - Logical data block length
  - Number of logical data blocks or number of cylinder in the user
    space
  - Alternate spare area size

 This section outlines the formatting at installation.


 Setting parameters
 ------------------
 The user can specify the optimal operation mode for the user system
 environments by setting the following parameters with the MODE
 SELECT EXTENDED command:

 - Error recovery parameter
 - Disconnection/reconnection parameter
 - Caching parameter
 - Control mode parameter
