INTRODUCTION
This document describes the installation of the AM-402 SCSI CD-Recorder into an existing Alpha Micro
Computer System. The following prerequisites apply to the system:
•
68030 or faster processor required
•
One half high 5-1/4" peripheral mounting slot (horizontal mounting only) in your system
or subsystem
•
Full interrupt enabled SCSI dispatcher
•
DCACHE software (set the number of read-ahead blocks to 7)
•
AMOS 2.3A or later operating system software
If you are installing an AM-402 SCSI CD-Recorder into an external subsystem, you will need to use the
installation instructions shipped with the subsystem in conjunction with the AM-402 specific instructions
in this document.
These instructions are written for the experienced Alpha Micro Service Technician, so if you do not feel
comfortable performing the hardware and software procedures discussed below, please contact your
Alpha Micro dealer or the Alpha Micro Technical Assistance Center for help.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AM-402 SCSI CD-Recorder is a dual-function unit that writes to recordable CD media and reads any
compatible CD-ROM. The CD-Recorder is a narrow SCSI device and occupies one 5.25" peripheral
device bay in the system or subsystem. Up to 600 megabytes of data can be stored on a single CD-ROM.
The AM-402 SCSI CD-Recorder requires the AlphaCD-WRITER software package, which includes a
software utility called MAKACD. This software must be purchased separately and is PIC-coded on a per
system basis. Details on the software are included in the MAKACD command reference document,
which is attached to this document and is also included in the AMOS System Command Reference
Manual, part number DSO-00043-00, Rev 10.
TOOLS REQUIRED
For most installations, the only tool you will need to install the AM-402 SCSI CD-Recorder is a #2
Phillips-head screwdriver.
PREPARING THE AM-402 FOR INSTALLATION
First, you need to select the SCSI ID for the CD-Recorder by setting the proper jumpers on the back of
the CD-Recorder. Since this device supports only a narrow SCSI bus, you have seven SCSI IDs to
choose from (0 through 6). Don't worry if you have a gap in your device addressing; AMOS doesn't
require that each device be defined in sequence.
