installation, connect the drive to the host computer, and select the SCSI ID

with the rotary switch on the rear panel.

Supplied Items

When you first open the box, make sure it contains the following items.

Contact your supplier if anything is missing or broken.

• DDS Drive Unit

• Power Cable

• Operator’s Guide

Interconnections

SDT-D11000

The SCSI bus allows connection of up to fifteen peripherals to the host

computer. Use a SCSI cable with a 68 pin connector.

Precautions

• Switch off the host computer and peripherals before connecting the SCSI

cable.

• Make sure the SCSI connectors are pressed tightly together.

• If this unit is the last (or only) device on the SCSI bus, make sure to connect

a SCSI bus terminator to the open connector.

• The total length of the SCSI cable(s) between the host computer and the last

device should be less than 3 meters.

*1

• To set up the LVD configuration, you need:

1) Host PC with the LVD SCSI Board, 2) only LVD devices on the SCSI

bus, and 3) LVD/SE switchable terminator.

Figure 2-1. Interconnections

*1

When using high-speed data transfer with the SDT-D11000, it is recommended that total

length of the SCSI cable not exceed 1.5 m (SE) or 12 m (LVD).

AC power

12 Part 2. Preparation

SDT-D9000

The SCSI bus allows connection of up to seven peripherals to the host

computer. Use a SCSI cable with a full pitch 50 pin connector.

Precautions

• Switch off the host computer and peripherals before connecting the SCSI

cable.

• Make sure the SCSI connectors are pressed tightly together.

• If this unit is the last (or only) device on the SCSI bus, make sure to connect

a SCSI bus terminator to the open connector.

• The total length of the SCSI cable(s) between the host computer and the last

device should be less than 6 meters.

*2

Figure 2-2. Interconnections

*2

When using high-speed data transfer with the SDT-D9000, it is recommended that total length

of the SCSI cable not exceed 3 m.

SCSI ID Setting

The SCSI ID is set by the rotary switch on the rear panel. Press the + or –

buttons to move the number up or down, respectively.

As shipped from the factory, the SCSI ID is set to 0. Press the switch buttons,

if necessary, to select the SCSI ID number you require.

Precautions

• The SCSI ID must be different from IDs of the other peripherals on the

SCSI bus.

• As shipped from the factory, SCSI parity is enabled and Term power is ON.

A SCSI bus terminator must be connected to the SCSI bus before use.

• Before changing the SCSI ID setting, be sure to turn off the power with the

POWER switch on the front panel.

Part 3. Operation 13

Part 3. Operation

This section describes how to use the DDS drive, and how to handle data

cartridges.

How to use the DDS Drive

1 Press the POWER switch on the front panel.

The POWER indicator should light, and the STATUS, BUSY and TAPE

indicators should blink as the self-test is performed.

2 When the three indicators stop blinking, you can insert a data cartridge as

shown below. The TAPE indicator will blink, and if the cartridge is

write-protected, the STATUS indicator will light.

Figure 3-1. Inserting a data cartridge

3 Computer software controls the reading and writing of tapes. While

reading or writing, the BUSY indicator blinks.

14 Part 3. Operation

Cartridge Removal

Press the EJECT button.

The cartridge ejects automatically.

Figure 3-2. Press the EJECT button

Caution

Do not push the EJECT button while the BUSY indicator is blinking: to do so

may destroy data on the tape.

Part 4. Care and Maintenance 15

Part 4. Care and Maintenance

Taking Care of the Drive

Safety Considerations

■ Power

• Be sure to use only 100-240 V AC.

• Avoid plugging into the same outlet as high-current equipment like copiers

or shredders.

■ Power Cable Precautions

• Do not crush the cable or place heavy items on it. If the cable insulation

appears worn or broken, do not use the cable.

• Always unplug the cable by holding the plug: never pull the cable itself, as

it will break.

• If the drive is not being used for a long time, unplug the cable from the

outlet.

Avoiding Damage

■ Avoid shock and vibration

Intense shock, such as from dropping the drive, will damage it.

■ Environmental considerations

Do not store or use the drive in locations subject to:

• high humidity • excessive dust

• high temperature • intense vibration

• direct sunlight • sudden changes in temperature

■ Proper ventilation

To avoid overheating, install the drive where it will have free air circulation

around the case, and do not cover it during operation. The drive can

malfunction if the internal temperature rises too high.

■ Avoid sudden changes in temperature

If the drive is moved from a cool place to a warm place, or if the room

temperature suddenly rises, moisture may condense inside the case. After a

sudden change in temperature, wait at least one hour before turning the drive

on. If the drive is turned on with condensation inside, and a cartridge is

installed, the drive or the tape can be damaged.

16 Part 4. Care and Maintenance

■ Abnormal occurrences

If the drive behaves abnormally, or if it begins to smell or smoke,

immediately unplug it from the wall outlet and contact your supplier for

assistance.

■ Cabinet cleaning

Wipe the cabinet with a soft dry cloth. For heavy dirt, wipe with a soft cloth

moistened with a gentle liquid soap, then wipe again with a soft dry cloth. Do

not use alcohol, paint thinner, bug sprays or other volatile solvents, as they

can damage the finish.

Part 4. Care and Maintenance 17

Taking Care of Cartridges

Use Precautions

• Avoid heavy vibration and dropping.

• The shutter on the face of the cartridge is opened automatically when it is

inserted into the drive. Do not open the shutter by hand, as touching the tape

may damage it.

• The cartridge was carefully aligned during assembly at the factory. Please

do not try to open it or take it apart.

• The write-protect switch on the face of the cartridge prevents the tape from

being written to or accidentally erased. If you do not need to write to the

tape, move this switch to the write-protect position (in the direction of the

arrow).

Figure 4-1. Write-protect switch

• In case of a sudden change in temperature, condensation may interfere with

reading and writing to a tape.

• Avoid unnecessary insertion and removal of cartridges if you do not need to

write or read a tape.

• When finished using the drive, remove the cartridge.

Storage Precautions

• Keep cartridges in their cases when not in the drive.

• Avoid storing cartridges in dusty places, in direct sunlight, near heaters or

air conditioners, or in humid locations.

• Do not place cartridges on the dashboard or in a storage tray in a car.

Using your fingernail, push the switch in the

direction of the arrow to protect the tape from

writing or accidental erasure.

Return the switch to its original position to

re-enable writing.

18 Part 4. Care and Maintenance

Head Cleaning

To keep the DDS drive in top condition, clean the head as needed, using the

proper head cleaning cartridge (sold separately). When the head needs

cleaning, the STATUS indicator will blink.

How to Clean

1 Load the head cleaning cartridge (DGD15CL) into the DDS drive.

Cleaning starts automatically.

2 After about 10 seconds, cleaning will stop and the cartridge will eject

automatically.

One head cleaning cartridge can be used about 90 times.

Notice

Do not rewind the cleaning cartridge and reuse it. When you reach the end of

the cartridge, dispose it and buy a new one.
