SCSI ID Information	

In any system, each SCSI device must have a unique identifier called the SCSI	
ID number. In an RRD42 CDROM drive, the SCSI ID number is determined	
by three jumpers. See Figure RRD42-2. When installing an RRD42 CDROM	
drive in a system, set the SCSI ID jumpers to a value that is not used by any of	
the other SCSI devices in the system. See your system documentation for more	
information about the SCSI bus.	

The following procedure describes how to set the SCSI ID number on an RRD42	
CDROM drive option.	

1. Determine the SCSI ID number to be assigned to the RRD42 CDROM drive	
option. Typically, the RRD42 CDROM uses SCSI ID 4; however, the system	
manager may prefer to make this decision.	

2. At the console prompt on the system console terminal, enter the SHOW	
DEVICE command. This will list the SCSI ID numbers for the existing	
devices in the system. Verify that you are using a number that is not	
currently assigned to another device.	

3. Locate the SCSI ID jumper pins on the CDROM drive. See Figure RRD42-2.	

4. Position the jumpers for the SCSI ID number selected. Table RRD42-1 shows	
the jumper settings for each SCSI ID.

SCSI ID Information	

In any system, each SCSI device must have a unique identifier called the SCSI	
ID number. In the RZ26, RZ26L, and RZ28 disk drives, the SCSI ID number is	
determined by three jumpers. See Figure RZ26/RZ26L/RZ28-1. When installing	
an RZ26, RZ26L, or RZ28 disk drive in a system, set the SCSI ID jumpers to a	
value that is not used by any of the other SCSI devices in the system. See your	
system documentation for detailed information about the SCSI bus.

MicroVAX 3100 Platform Options Supplement RZ26/RZ26L/RZ28-1

	

RZ26/RZ26L/RZ28-EK

The following procedure describes how to set the SCSI ID number on an RZ26,	
RZ26L, or RZ28 disk drive option.	

1. Determine the SCSI ID number to be assigned to the disk drive option.	
Typically, the first RZ-series disk in a system uses SCSI ID 1, the second	
RZ-series disk uses SCSI ID 2, and the third RZ-series disk uses SCSI ID 3;	
however, the system manager may prefer to make this decision.	

2. At the system console, enter the SHOW DEVICE command from console	
mode. This will list the SCSI ID numbers for the existing devices in the	
system. Verify that you are using a number that is not currently assigned to	
another device.	

3. Locate the SCSI ID jumper pins on the disk drive. See Figure RZ26/RZ26L	
/RZ28-1.	

4. Position the jumpers for the SCSI ID number selected. Table RZ26/RZ26L

Media Recognition System	

The media recognition system (MRS) is a quality standard for tapes that is	
supported by the TLZ07 tape drive. MRS is not supported by the TLZ06 tape	
drive. Cassette tapes that meet this standard are labeled MRS or Media	
Recognition System, and contain identifying information at the beginning	
of the tape.	

When the media recognition system is enabled on the TLZ07 cassette tape drive	
(switch S4 on the SCSI ID and option switchpack set to off), the TLZ07 drive	
reads the header information on the cassette tapes to determine if the tape meets	
the MRS standard. Although it can read any 4 mm cassette tape, with MRS	
enabled the drive will only write to tapes that meet the MRS standard. If a write	
operation is iniated with MRS enabled and the cassette tape does not meet the	
MRS standard, a write-lock error message displays on the console terminal.	

When the media recognition system is disabled (SCSI ID and option switchpack,	
switch S4 on), the TLZ07 cassette tape drive will write to any MRS tape as well	
as tapes that do not meet the MRS standard.	

Installation	

Before installing the TLZ06/07 tape drive option, the enclosure cover must be	
removed. If you are installing the TLZ06/07 tape drive option in a MicroVAX	
3100 Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 system, the upper drive-mounting shelf must	
also be removed. See the appropriate enclosure maintenance manual for these

SCSI ID Information	

In any system, each SCSI device must have a unique identifier called the SCSI	
ID number. In a TZK-series tape drive, the SCSI ID number is determined by	
three jumpers. See Figure TZKxx-1. When installing a TZK-series tape drive	
in a system, set the SCSI ID jumpers to a value that is not used by any of the	
other SCSI devices in the system. See your system documentation for detailed	
information about the SCSI bus.	

The following procedure describes how to set the SCSI ID number on a TZK-series	
tape drive option.	

1. Determine the SCSI ID number to be assigned to the TZK-series tape drive	
option. Typically, a TZK-series tape drive uses SCSI ID 5; however, the	
system manager may prefer to make this decision.	

2. At the system console, enter the SHOW DEVICE command from console	
mode. This will list the SCSI ID numbers for the existing devices in the	
system. Verify that you are using a number that is not currently assigned to	
another device.	

3. Locate the SCSI ID jumper pins on the tape drive. See Figure TZKxx-1.	

4. Position the jumpers for the SCSI ID number selected. Table TZKxx-1 shows	
the jumper settings for each SCSI ID number.	

The jumper wires on either side of the SCSI ID select jumpers are installed by	
default. The jumper to the right of the SCSI ID select pins enables the terminator	
power (TERMPWR). In the TZK10 drive, the jumper to the left of the SCSI ID	
select pins enables parity. In the TZK11 drive, the jumper to the left of the SCSI	
ID select pins is a Vendor/Product ID Select (VSEL) switch. This jumper should	
be installed in a TZK11 that resides in a MicroVAX 3100 system. It should be

Installation	

Before installing the TZK-series tape drive option, the enclosure cover must be	
removed. If you are installing the TZK-series tape drive option in a MicroVAX	
3100 Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 system, the upper drive-mounting shelf must	
also be removed. See the appropriate enclosure maintenance manual for these	
removal procedures.

TZKxx-HG

You can install a TZK-series option in the following:	

· A Model 30 system (right storage slot)	

· A Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 system (either slot in the lower drive-mounting	
shelf)	

The location of the storage slot determines the position of mounting bracket on	
the drive. The following sections describe how the mounting bracket should be	
attached to the tape drive.	

Preparing to Install a TZK-Series Option in a Model 30 System	
Before you install a TZK-series option in a Model 30 system, perform the	
following steps:	

1. Attach the mounting bracket as shown in Figure TZKxx-2. Facing the front	
of the drive, the captive screw should be on the left, and the screws attaching	
the mounting bracket to the drive should be attached through the bracket	
holes labeled Q.	

2. Attach the dress bezel insert to the front flange of the TZK-series option. See	
Figure TZKxx-2.	

3. From inside the enclosure, push the blank bezel insert out of the front bezel.	

4. Remove the blank bezel insert from the enclosure.	

5. Clip the Model 30 bezel insert to the front bezel. Figure TZKxx-3 shows the	
removal of the blank bezel insert, and the installation of the Model 30 bezel	
insert on a Model 30 system.

Preparing to Install a TZK-Series Option in a Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 System	
(Right Storage Slot)	
Before you install a TZK-series option in the right storage slot on the lower drive-	
mounting shelf in a Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 system, perform the following	
steps:	

1. Attach the mounting bracket as shown in Figure TZKxx-2. Facing the front	
of the drive, the captive screw should be on the left, and the screws attaching	
the mounting bracket to the drive should be attached through the bracket	
holes labeled Q.

Preparing to Install a TZK-Series Option in a Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 System	
(Left Storage Slot)	
Before you install a TZK-series option in the left storage slot on the lower drive-	
mounting shelf in a Model 40, 80, 85, 90, or 95 system, perform the following	
steps:	

1. Attach the mounting bracket as follows: facing the front of the drive, the	
captive screw should be on the right, and the four screws attaching the	
mounting bracket to the drive should be attached through the series of	
bracket holes labeled Q.	

2. From inside the enclosure, push out the blank bezel insert that covers the left	
storage slot on the lower drive-mounting shelf.	

3. Remove the blank bezel insert from the enclosure.	

Installing the TZK-Series Option	
After you have prepared the system as described previously, install the TZK-series	
tape drive option as follows:	

1. Check the storage slot on the drive-mounting shelf to verify that any spring-	
lock clips are in the locked position. If they are in the released position,	
install a lock-out screw to secure them down.	

2. Identify the power cable connector that supplies power to the storage slot	
where the TZK-series option will be installed.	

3. Connect the power cable to the power connector on the back of the TZK-series	
drive. (See Figure TZKxx-4.)	

4. Identify the SCSI cable connector that has a pull-tab number that corresponds	
to the storage slot where the TZK-series option will be installed.	

5. Connect the SCSI cable to the back of the TZK-series option. (See	
Figure TZKxx-4.)	

6. Align the tabs on the tape drive mounting bracket with the cutouts in the	
drive-mounting shelf.	

7. Tilt the drive slightly to slide the tabs in the drive-mounting shelf cutouts.	

8. Lower the tape drive into position and tighten the captive screw on the	
mounting bracket to secure the tape drive in place.	

Replace the upper drive-mounting shelf (if removed) and the enclosure cover.

Diagnostic Support	

The MicroVAX 3100 platform systems provide diagnostic support that tests the	
operation of a TZK-series tape drive option.	

The following procedure describes how to test the TZK-series option.	

1. Install a blank tape in the TZK-series tape drive.	

2. Enter one of the following commands at the console prompt to test the	
operation of the TZKxx option:	

· If you are using a MicroVAX Model 30, 40, or 80 system, enter one of the	
following commands:	
>>> T SCSI	
>>> T 10	

· If you are using a MicroVAX Model 85, 90, or 95 system, enter the	
following command:	
>>> T E0	

A successful pass of the test is indicated when the console displays the console	
prompt.	

If the test fails, the LED display on the back of the system unit displays a code	
in the range A0 to A5 (hexadecimal), and the console terminal displays a hard	
error message containing the test number (10) and the test mnemonic (SCSI).	
The following is an example of an error printout.	
?? 001 10 SCSI 0050	

See your system maintenance manual for more information about the diagnostics.
