Jumper Setting Tutorial: There are three possible jumper settings: MASTER, SLAVE, and CABLE SELECT (CSEL). When two drives are connected to the same interface cable, one must be set to MASTER, and one set to SLAVE. Alternatively, both drives may be set to CABLE SELECT, in which case the system defines which drive is MASTER and which drive is SLAVE. If only one drive is present, set the jumper to MASTER. The NEC drive ships with a default setting of MASTER.

Disc Care ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ To clean the disc, use a soft cloth and wipe from the inside to the outside edge rather than in a circular motion. Do not use record-cleaning or anti-static agents as the solutions may damage a disc. Always store discs in proper storage cases when not in use. Check for dirt, dust, or fingerprints on a disc’s recording side before inserting into the unit. Avoid touching or scratching the recording side of the disc.

Troubleshooting & Technical Support Nothing happens when eject button is pressed: ■ Make sure the power cable is securely connected to the drive. ■ Verify the computer is powered-up and running. Drive has power (responds to eject button), but is not recognized by computer: ■ Verify the interface cable is attached correctly. ■ Verify the drive’s jumper settings.
