YAMAHA CD-R/RW Drive web site URL: http://www.yamaha.co.jp/english/product/computer/ Europe URL: http://www.yamaha-it.de/ The drive does not turn on. ● Are the AC adapter and the power cable connected correctly? Make sure that the CRW2200UX drive is correctly connected to the AC outlet, using the included AC adapter and power cable. (→P.
Troubleshooting The disc tray does not open. ● Is the CRW2200UX drive turned on? The power LED on the front panel of the CRW2200UX drive should light up when power is turned on. ● Is any CD writing software being used? Some CD writing software locks the eject button while it is running on a computer. (If you are using such a software program, the disc tray does not open even if the eject button is pressed.
Troubleshooting No data can be read from a disc. ● Is the disc ejected against your will? Refer to “The disc is ejected against your will (or it comes out spontaneously).” (→P. 22) ● Are you sure the disc is of one of the types supported by the drive? Before use, make sure that the disc is compatible with the CRW2200UX drive. (→P. 31) ● Isn’t the disc dusty or dirty? Remove dust or dirt from the disc, using an air spray or by wiping with a dry, soft cloth.
Troubleshooting The playback of an audio CD (CD-DA) cannot be heard. ● Make sure that powerd speakers (optional) are correctly connected to the LINE OUT jacks (L/R) of the CRW2200UX drive, using audio cables (optional). (→P.
Troubleshooting The error message “Buffer Underrun” is displayed. ● If your CD writing software supports the Buffer Underrun Protection, you must activate the Buffer Underrun Protection. For more details, refer to the documentation that came with your CD writing software. ● To prevent the occurrence of a buffer underrun and to increase the efficiency of data writing, try the following: • Reduce the data writing speed. • Create an image file on the hard drive. • Optimize the hard drive.
Appendix Recording Methods Disc-at-Once (DAO) This method is used to write all data onto a disc in one operation. This method writes multiple pieces of data successively without placing space between them, starting in the innermost track of the disc. Once data is recorded by this method, no data can be added to the same disc even if there is enough space left on it. This method is very useful for making a backup copy of an entire CD.
Appendix Track-at-Once (TAO) This method is used to write data on a disc on a track-by-track basis. A track can be defined as the smallest unit of area that contains an ordinary program, pictorial data, text data, etc. This method allows you to add data to the same disc, one track of data at a time, as long as there is free space left on the disc. Discs that contain data recorded in several different sessions (writing of tracks) are referred to as multisession discs.
Appendix Packet Writing This method is used to record data onto a disc on a file-by-file basis. This method divides a track into small segments called “packets” so that data can be written on a packet-by-packet basis, which means that you can record data in much the same way as you copy data to a floppy or hard drive by dragging and dropping it on your desktop. With such handiness, Packet Writing is suitable for daily data backup.
Appendix About the Firmware The firmware refers to the operating software designed for your CD-R/RW drive. It is stored in drive’s flash memory, so that it can be erased and rewritten. To enhance operation reliability, YAMAHA will continue improving the firmware and make updates to it available.
