Components 
 

Drive, Quick Installation Guide;  
 

Kit version only:

 4 mounting screws M3x5mm, 40-pin 

IDE data cable, audio cable.  
 
The kit version can be identified if the product name 
ends with the letter "K" or “Kit”.  
 
 

System requirements 
 

Your Drive supports all major operating systems (with 
the exception of Windows 3.1x) and all major hardware 
platforms. To get the full performance it is 
recommended to use a system environment which’s 
computing power is equivalent to an IBM compatible 
PC with a Pentium II CPU with 300MHz clock frequency 
or more, 64MByte RAM or more and a fixed disk with 
an access time of 12ms or less. 
 

 
 

Important: 

To use the Drive, an IDE (ATAPI) controller is 
required. The necessary drivers are shipped 
with the corresponding controller card or they 
are available from the manufacturer of the 
controller.  
 
Please do not install your Drive near sources 
of radiating heat like hard disks. 

 
 
 

Drive Installation Directions 
 

There are three possible positions for installation: 
Horizontal installation with the eject button to the right, 
and vertical installation in both possible directions. The 
installation position is not allowed to be tilted more than 

5 degrees out of the vertical or 10 degrees out of the 
horizontal position. When the drive is vertical mounted 
an 80mm disc cannot be played. 
 

 

Note: 

Please use for the installation the fixing holes in 
the sides or on the bottom of the drive. 

 
 
Jumpers for IDE Configuration 
 

The strap (jumper) is factory-preset as shown below: 
 
 

 

 

Digital Audio Output           40-pin IDE Cable Connector  
                                       
                                 Analog Audio Output               Power Connector 

 
 

 

The Drive can be operated in the modes Master (1), 
Slave (2) or Cable Select (3). 
 

 
Important: 

During setting the mode be sure to switch 
off respectively disconnect any voltages 
connected to the drive (see section 
“Installation and Connection”). 

 

1 2 3  Remarks 

- - x 

Master

: The Drive is configured as first IDE drive 

(basic setting). This configuration can be used only if 
the Drive is connected to the 

second

 IDE controller 

(secondary IDE). If a hard disk is already operated at 
the secondary IDE controller (configured as master) 
the jumper setting at the drive has to be changed to 
slave. 

- X - 

Slave: 

The drive is configured as second IDE drive. If 

there is only one hard disk in the PC the optical drive 
can be operated at the same IDE connection parallel 
to this hard disk. Important: The data rates of both 
devices may be decreased. 

X -  - 

Cable Select: 

Master/slave detection is achieved by 

the controller.
