Installation  
Device Damage  
Be sure to turn on the power supply before inserting your cartridge  
for the first time. It releases the device from transport protection  
and enables you to insert the cartridge.  
The device may be damaged if you insert the cartridge without  
releasing the protection. From the next time, you don’t need to  
turn on the power supply beforehand.  
Before moving the drive, remove the optical disk cartridge. If the  
drive is moved with the optical disk cartridge loaded in it, the head  
may move back and forth in the drive to damage the head or disk  
and reading the data may fail.  
3-20  
3-22  
1) Make sure that the system power is off.  
2) Do not connect or disconnect any cable when the power is on.  
Device Damage  
Before demounting the optical disk drive, turn off the system power.  
Do not remove screws securing the cables and drive when the  
power is on.

C156-E142-02EN  
1 - 1  
1.1.1  
Performance  
(1)  
Half-height standard 90mm(3.5-inch) size (25.4 mm height)  
The ATAPI controller can be directly connected to the system EIDE bus. The controller meets the  
specifications of the standard 25.4 mm height 90mm(3.5-inch) fixed disk drive form factor.  
(2)  
High-speed data transfer  
The speed of the MCE3130AP disk medium is 3,214 rpm when a 1.3 GB disk medium is used.  
When other media are used, the speed is 4,558 revolutions per minute.  
The speed of the MCE3064AP disk medium is 3600 revolutions per minute.  
In the disk unit, high-speed data transfers at rates of 3.46 to 5.92 MB/s (1.3 GB) are realized. The  
data transfer rate on the EIDE bus is 16.6 MB/s in PIO mode 4 and 16.6 MB/s in Multi-word  
DMA Mode 2.  
The EIDE bus high-speed data transfer capacity can be used effectively through the optical disk  
unit’s large capacity data buffer (with read-ahead cache).  
(3)  
(4)  
High-speed mean seek time  
This drive features a linear voice-coil motor for high-speed head positioning. The average seek  
time is the average of 1,000 random seeks and is 23 ms. (However, this does not include command  
overhead or address check.)  
Compatible with international standards (media interchangeability)  
90mm(3.5 inch) type 1.3 GB format optical disks as well as ISO standards compatible 128 MB,  
230 MB, 540 MB and 640 MB format optical disk media can be used in the MCE3130AP Optical  
Disk Unit.  
ISO standards compatible 128 MB, 230 MB, 540 MB and 640 MB format optical disks can be  
used in the MCE3064AP and MCF3064AP optical disk units.  
(5)  
Direct-overwrite medium support  
The drive can use an optic modulation direct-overwrite disk that does not read an erase operation;  
230-MB disk, 540-MB disk with the ISO standard.  
(6)  
(7)  
Dust resistance  
The optical disk drive needs class 5 millions or less of the dust particles.  
Lower power consumption  
The power consumption of the MCE3130AP optical disk drive is 5.5 W and that of the  
MCE3064AP, and MCF3064AF optical disk drives is 5.3 W. (These power consumption values  
are typical values during read and write operation.) These drives do not use a fan.  
The minimum power consumption is 0.65 W during power save.

C156-E142-02EN  
(8)  
Automatic spindle stop function  
If access is not made within a certain time, this function stops disk rotation to minimize dust  
accumulation on the disk. This function can be set that time by the MODE SELECT command.  
1.1.2  
Reliability  
(1)  
Mean time between failure (MTBF)  
This drive features a 120,000 hour MTBF.  
(2)  
(3)  
Error recovery  
For the error depending on the optical disk drive, recovery process is made by a suitable retry.  
This drive features Reed-Solomon error correction (ECC) to assure error-free operation.  
Automatic allocation of alternate data blocks  
This drive features a function which automatically allocates alternate data blocks to defective data  
blocks detected while data is being read from or written to an optical disk.  
1.1.3  
Maintainability/operability  
(1)  
Diagnostic function  
This drive has a diagnostic function to check optical disk drive operations. The diagnostic  
function facilitates test and restoration.  
(2)  
(3)  
Five year service life (no overhaul)  
This drive will not require overhaul within the first five years of installation if appropriately  
handled, maintained, and cleaned as recommended.  
Mean time to repair (MTTR)  
The MTTR is 30 minutes or less, if repaired by a specialized maintenance staff member.  
1.1.4  
Adaptability  
(1)  
Wide operating environment  
An LSI circuits reduce power consumption to 5.3 W (read/write). This drive features a wide  
operating environment (5 to 45°C, general office environment). Dust particles are class 5 millions  
or less.  
C156-E142-02EN  
1 - 3  
(2)  
Low noise and low vibration  
This drive operates quietly 26 dB or less (A character) even during seek operations and will not  
degrade the office environment. Rubber vibration isolators support the drive and minimize  
vibration. (Low noise and low vibration features are available except while an MO cartridge is  
being ejected.)  
(3)  
(4)  
Vibration resistance (shock resistance)  
Rubber vibration isolators protect the drive against external shock or vibration.

1.1.5  
Interface  
(1)  
ATA/ATAPI-4  
This drive supports the basic ATA/ATAPI-4 specifications.  
ATAPI commands enable operation using logical block addresses that are independent of the  
physical attributes of the drive, enabling software flexibility in terms of system expansion.  
Supports PIO Mode 4 and Multi-word DMA Mode 2.  
Continuous block processing  
(2)  
Logical block addresses are used for data block addressing. Without consideration of the physical  
attributes of track boundaries, the initiator can access data by specifying a block number in  
logically continuous data space.  
1 - 4  
C156-E142-02EN  
(3)  
(4)  
Data buffer  
1,844 KB buffer is used to transfer data between the EIDE bus and disk. Since data is stored in  
this buffer, the host can execute input-output processing effectively by using the high-speed data  
transfer capability of the EIDE bus without regard to the data transfer rate of the optical disk drive.  
Read-ahead cache feature  
The read-ahead cache feature enables high-speed sequential data access as follows:  
After executing a command to read data from the disk, the drive automatically reads the next data  
block and stores it in the data buffer (pre-reading). If the next command requests this data, the data  
is transferred from the buffer without another disk access.  
(5)  
Write cache feature  
When the host system issues the write command to the optical disk drive, a command complete is  
usually responded after completion of the write and verify operations. By using the write cache  
feature, a command complete is responded after completion of the data transfer to the data buffer  
without waiting the completion of the write and verify operations then the write and verify  
operations are made asynchronously with the interface operation. Therefore, the apparent write  
command processing time measured at the host system is reduced and the I/O performance of the  
host system is improved.  
The write cache feature is enabled or disabled by MODE SELECT command.  
When the write cache feature is enabled, a write error is reported at the  
completion status of next command. At a system so that the host retries  
the command, a retry process may be failed.  
(6)  
(7)  
Defective block slipping  
When a disk is initialized, logical data blocks are reallocated in a physical sequence by slipping  
defective data blocks. This enables high-speed continuous data block processing without  
rotational delay due to defective data blocks.  
Device driver software (1.3 GB optical disk media)  
The optical disk drive requires more extended processing time than conventional optical device  
drives because of higher density. Consequently, a processing time timeout when using the OS can  
occur and this requires special device driver software.

1.2.2  
Configuration  
Figure 1.3 shows the drive configuration.  
The drive consists of mechanical sections, a fixed optics section, actuator, and a control circuit  
section. The mechanical sections include the spindle motor, actuator section, bias magnet, and the  
cartridge folder vertical motion mechanism.  
The fixed optics section consists of the optical components, position detector, and LD controller.  
The control circuit sections include the drive control circuit section and ATAPI controller section.

1.2.3  
Mechanical sections  
(1)  
Optical disk cartridge load/eject  
The system includes a cartridge mechanism which lowers the optical disk cartridge and mounts  
(loads) it on the spindle motor automatically when the optical disk cartridge is fully inserted in the  
optical disk drive’s disk slot, and a mechanism which automatically ejects the cartridge when the  
Eject button on the front panel is pressed.  
(2)  
(3)  
Spindle motor  
Optical disk cartridge hubs are linked through magnetic clamps to minimize slippage between the  
spindle motor shaft and disk. The spindle motor is the direct drive type which rotates the disk at  
the same speed as the spindle motor shaft. A DC brushless spindle motor is used. The spindle  
motor rotates at 4,558 rpm ± 0.1%.  
Actuator section  
The positioner moves (seeks) a head actuator radically across the disk surface.  
The positioner is driven by a linear voice coil motor. A pulse-width modulation (PWM) is adopted  
as a driving system and realizes low power consumption and high-speed access.  
C156-E142-02EN  
1 - 7  
(4)  
Separate optical sections  
The optical head section is separated in such a way that the fixed optics section is separated from  
the moving optics section to minimize seek time and positioning error. (See Subsection 1.2.4 for  
the fixed optical section.) This reduces the weight of the moving parts.  
The fixed optics section consists of the laser diodes, collimator lens, and optical detector.  
The fixed optics section includes a laser diode for recording and playback, and transmits one laser  
beam to the head actuator.  
(5)  
Panel  
The central part of the panel is hollowed out deeply to provide pushing finger space for inserting  
the cartridge, thereby facilitating the insertion.  
The panel is also simply designed by making the eject button and LED light emitting part integral  
with each other.

with control between the ATAPI interface and drive interface, and a drive circuit section which  
controls the drive.  
(1)  
(2)  
ATAPI controller circuit section  
The ATAPI controller circuit's reliability is improved by large-scale integrated circuit technology.  
The high-speed microprocessor (MPU) handles ATAPI interface control and drive control such as  
drive read-and-write control and single-beam control.  
Drive circuit section  
The drive circuit section consists of the following circuits:

Laser diode control circuit  
Signal reproduction circuit  
Servo/seek control circuit  
Rotation control circuit  
Drive miscellaneous control circuit  
The DSP (digital signal processor) is used for the servo/seek control circuit to reduce the circuit  
amount, therefore this circuit is a simple configuration.  
The drive circuit section executes operations such as seek, erase, record, and playback while the  
MPU controls the focus-tracking of the beam.

The following explains the components of the optical disk drive shown in Figure 2.1:  
1) Cartridge case  
Covers the disk to protect it from damage when handled and facilitates disk replacement. The  
cartridge case is labeled and has a write protect tab.  
2) Shutter  
Protects the disk against dust. When the cartridge is inserted into the optical disk drive, the  
shutter (metallic door) is opened.  
3) Write protect tab  
The write protect tab selects whether write is enabled or disabled.  
4) Disk  
Holds information which can be read by an optical beam.  
5) Hub  
The hub is placed at the center of the disk and is linked to the spindle of the drive. The hub is  
used for radial centering and axial positioning.

Defect Management  
2.3.1  
Defect management schematic diagram  
Defective sectors on the disk shall be replaced by good sectors according to the defect  
management scheme as follows: Defective sectors found during surface certification are handled  
by a sector slipping algorithm. Defective sectors found after initialization are handled by a linear  
replacement algorithm.  
Figure 2.2 shows the algorithms for alternate processing.  
(a) Sector slipping algorithm  
(b) Linear replacement algorithm  
Figure 2.2 Algorithms for alternate processing  
The user area is divided into several groups during media initialization. Each group contains data  
sectors and spare sectors. Spare sectors are used as replacements for defective data sectors. Media  
initialization can include a certification of the user area.

3.10 Dismounting Drive  
This chapter describes environmental, mounting, power supply, and connection requirements.  
3.1  
Environmental Requirements  
The environment in which these drives are installed must comply with the ambient environmental  
requirements defined in Subsection 2.1.3.  
3.1.1  
Temperature measurement point  
When a drive is operating, the ambient temperature measured 3 cm from the base surface of the  
optical disk drive and the PCA unit surface must satisfy the environmental requirements specified  
in Subsection 2.1.3. For the temperature of each surface during operation, the contact temperature  
at each measurement point shown in Figure 3.1 must satisfy the requirements specified in  
Subsection 3.1.2.  
Low temperature burns  
The surface temperatures of some ICs on the printed circuit board unit  
in the optical disk drive exceed 55°C while operating. Be careful of  
low tenperature burns.

Note: * 60°C for the optical disk cartridge (1.3 GB excluded) manufactured by Fujitsu.  
Following procedure is for temperature measurement of inside cartridge.  
1) Make a hole for the thermocouple as shown in Figure 3.1.  
2) Disassemble the cartridge disk.  
3) Cut off a part of the partition wall for the optical media as shown in Figure 3.1. (Cut off width:  
5 to 10 mm)  
4) Fix the tip of the thermocouple to the cut portion of partition wall with an adhesive agent.  
5) Pass the thermocouple through the hole at the cartridge case and assemble the cartridge disk.  
When there is a gap between the hole and the thermocouple, fill the gap with the adhesive  
agent.  
Note:  
The surface of the cartridge shown in Figure 3.1 has been cut away to make the elements inside  
the case clearly visible. In reality the surface is not cut away.  
If the external environment temperature is higher than the specified value, the device will  
automatically take an interval to respond to command, and then take protective action to  
respond to the temperature increase.  
3.1.3  
Air flow  
It is recommended that this optical disk drive be installed in a fanless cabinet. However, if the  
power supply is incorporated into the same cabinet, it is necessary that it satisfy the “Temperature  
Conditions” in 3.1.2 and that the air flow rate being drawn in by the device) at the cartridge  
loading slot be 0.02 m3/min, 0.3 m/s or lower. Furthermore, if there is a system fan in a system  
where this drive is being installed, the same conditions must be met.

Notes:  
1. The above data are data measured in a constant temperature chamber in which the  
temperature surrounding the equipment was kept at 45°C. They are not the same as the  
data obtained from measurements using the exclusive box in which the equipment is  
normally used.  
2. When using the box, the ambient temperature around the equipment will differ depending  
on the air circulation conditions of the box, and the temperature rise inside the cartridge  
will differ because of this, so please exercise caution.  
3.1.5  
Air purity  
Air purity in the device environment is expressed by the number of dust particles per unit area and  
must be class 5 millions (equivalent to 0.15 mg/m3) or less. (Class 500 millions: 500 millions dust  
particles of 0.5 !m dia. or larger per cubic foot)

Notes on mounting  
(1)  
Mounting frame structure and clearance  
a) For vibration resistance and heat dissipation, this optical disk drive uses an embossed structure  
as shown in Figure 3.6, as well as a frame which has a construction similar to other frames  
which perform the same function.  
b) As shown in Figure 3.6, the inward projection of the mounting screw from the outer surface of  
the drive frame must not exceed 3 mm.  
c) The clearance between the external surface of the drive frame and the user's frame structure  
must be at least 1.5 mm.  
d) The clearance between the top and bottom surfaces and the user's frame structure must be at  
least 1.5 mm.  
e) When mounting the optical disk drive, the screw tightening torque should be 0.4 to 0.45Nm (4  
to 4.6kgcm).  
f) When the optical disk drive (with panel) is mounted in a locker, there should be no  
deformation of the mounting fittings provided and the optical disk drive's panel should not be  
deformed. If the drive is used with the panel deformed, ejection of the cartridge will be faulty.  
Check if the door will close from any position whatever when the optical disk drive is installed.

Panel function processing  
When installed in a cabinet, do not change the panel formal. The processing is installation status  
and the disk insertion door can be closed from any locations.  
Service clearance  
Figure 3.7 shows locations which must be accessed for installation and maintenance. Be sure to  
leave sufficient service clearance.

External magnetic fields  
Mount the optical disk drive away from powerful magnetic materials (e.g., a speaker) to avoid  
influence from magnetic fields.  
Leak magnetic field  
The VCM drive magnetic circuit may leak the magnetic field (Maximum 25 Gauss at distance of 4  
mm from the drive).  
Do not place a device sensitive to a magnetic field near the optical disk  
drive.  
(6)  
External light source  
Mount the optical disk drive away from strong light sources (e.g., camera flash).  
3 - 10  
C156-E142-02EN  
(7)  
System ground  
The optical disk drive should be grounded to the signal ground (SG) of the power supply of the  
system. This SG line should be supplied with the system.  
The Frame Ground is shorted in the optical disk drive by a metal strip attached to the vibration  
isolation rubber between the frame (FG) and the base (SG).  
When mounting the optical disk drive in the Device Bay 120mm (5  
inch) of the PC chassis, there are two ways of choosing frames the  
metal frame and the plastic (nonconductive material) frame.  
When using a plastic frame, there is not a short circuit between FG of  
PC and FG of the optical disk drive. As a result, the static electricity  
tolerance decreases compared with metal frame.  
It is recommended to use a metal frame to enhance the static electricity  
prevention.  
3.3  
Power Supply Requirements  
(1)  
Allowable input voltage and current  
The DC power supply input voltage measured at the power supply connector pin of the optical disk  
drive (receiving end) must satisfy the requirements in Section 2.1.3. (For other requirements, see  
items (4) and (5) below.)

Notes on Drive Handling  
(1)  
General notes  
Note the following points to maintain drive performance and reliability:  
Device damage  
1) Shock or vibration applied to the drive that exceeds the values defined in  
the standard damage the drive. Use care when unpacking.  
2) Do not leave the drive in dirty or contaminated environments.  
3) Since static discharge may destroy the CMOS devices in the drive,  
pay attention to the following points after unpacking:  
Use an antistatic mat and wrist strap when handling the drive.  
Hold the mounting frame when handling the drive. Do not  
touch the PCA except when setting the switches.  
4) When handling the drive, hold both sides of the mounting frame.  
When touching other than both sides of the mounting frame, avoid  
putting force.  
5) Do not forcibly push up the end of the header pin of the printed  
circuit board unit when handling or setting the drive.  
(2)  
Unpackaging  
a) Make sure that the UP label on the package is pointing upward and start unpacking on a level  
surface. Handle the drive on a soft surface such as a rubber mat, not on a hard surface such as  
a desk.  
b) Use care to avoid exerting excessive pressure on the unit when removing the cushions.  
c) Use care to avoid exerting excessive pressure on the PCA surface and interface connectors  
when removing the drive from the antistatic bag.  
d) If the temperature difference between installation locations is 10 degrees or more, leave the  
drive in the new location for at least two hours before unpackaging it.  
C156-E142-02EN  
3 - 17  
(3)  
Installation  
a) Do not connect or disconnect the connectors or change the terminal settings when the power is  
on.  
b) Do not move the drive with the power on.  
c) Eject the optical disk cartridge, lock the carriage securing the head, turn off the power, then  
move the drive.  
Device damage  
Be sure to turn on the power supply before inserting your cartridge for  
the first time. It releases the device from transport protection and  
enables you to insert the cartridge.  
The device may be damaged if you insert the cartridge without  
releasing the protection. From the next time, you don’t need to turn on  
the power supply beforehand.  
Before moving the drive, remove the optical disk cartridge. If the drive  
is moved with the optical disk cartridge loaded in it, the head may  
move back and forth in the drive to damage the head or disk and  
reading the data may fail.  
(4)  
Packaging  
a) Before packaging, remove the optical cartridge.  
b) Store the drive in an antistatic plastic bag with desiccant (silica gel).  
c) Use the same cushions and packaging supplied with the drive. If they are not available, ensure  
that adequate shock absorbent material is used. In this case, some method of protecting the  
PCA surface and interface connectors must be used.  
d) Apply "UP" and "Handle With Care" labels to the outside of the package.  
Figure 3.16 shows the individual packaging style and Figure 3.17 shows the gathered packaging  
style. (The form and material of the cushion may be changed.)

a) Transport the package with the UP sign upward.  
b) After unpacking, minimize the transportation distance and use cushions to avoid shock and  
vibration. Transport the drive in one of the orientations described in Subsection 3.2.2 after  
unpacking. (The horizontal direction is recommended.)  
(6)  
Storage  
a) Use moistureproof packaging when storing the drive.  
b) The storage environment must satisfy the requirements specified in Subsection 2.1.3 when the  
drive is not operating.  
c) To prevent condensation, avoid sharp changes in temperature.

Mounting  
3.7.1  
Checks before mounting the drive  
Before mounting the optical disk drive in the system cabinet, check whether the jumper settings are  
set correctly.  
3.7.2  
Mounting procedure  
How the drive is mounted depends on the system cabinet structure. Determine the mounting  
procedure in consideration of the requirements of each system. This section contains the general  
mounting procedure and check items.  
See Section 3.2 for details on mounting drive.  
1) Tighten four mounting screws to secure the drive in the system cabinet.  
#
#
#
#
The drive has ten mounting holes (both sides: 3%2, bottom: 4). Secure the drive using the  
four mounting holes on both sides or the bottom.  
Use mounting screws whose lengths are 3 mm or less from the external wall of the mounting  
frame of the drive when they are tightened. (See Figure 3.6)  
When mounting with screws, the screw tightening torque should be 0.4 to 0.45Nm (4 to  
4.6kgfcm).  
Be careful not to damage the parts on the PCA when mounting the drive.  
2) After securing the drive, make sure that the drive does not touch the chassis of the system  
cabinet. There must be at least 1.5 mm clearance between the drive and chassis. (See Figure  
3.6)  
3.8  
Cable Connections  
Use the following cables to connect the drive to the system. See Subsection 3.4.2 for details on the  
connector positions and cable requirements.  
#
#
#
Power supply cable  
AT interface cable  
DC ground cable (if required)  
The general procedure for cable connection and notes on connecting cables are given below. Pay  
attention to the insertion direction of each cable connector.  
1) Make sure that the system power is off.  
2) Do not connect or disconnect any cable when the power is on.  
1) Connect the DC ground cable (only if required to decrease ground noise).  
2) Connect the power cables.  
3 - 20  
C156-E142-02EN  
3) Connect the AT interface cable.  
4) After each cable connector is connected, secure the cable so that the cable does not touch the  
drive or the parts on the PCA or obstruct the flow of cooling air in the system cabinet.  
3.9  
Operation Confirmation and Preparation for Use after Installation  
Confirming initial operations  
3.9.1  
This section provides the operation check procedures after the power is turned on.  
(1)  
Initial operation when the power is turned on  
#
When the power is turned on, the drive starts initial self-diagnosis. The LED on the front  
panel is on for 1 second during initial self-diagnosis.  
#
#
If an error is detected during initial self-diagnosis, the LED on the front panel blinks.  
In case of not inserted the cartridge, when the power is turned on, the eject motor  
automatically turns once.  
(2)  
Checks if errors occur at initial self-diagnosis  
#
#
Make sure that the cables are connected correctly.  
Make sure that the supply voltage is correct. (Measure the voltage at the power supply  
connector of the optical drive.)  
#
#
Make sure that the settings of all terminals are correct.  
If the LED on the front panel blinks continuously, an error was detected during initial self-  
diagnosis. In this case, issue the REQUEST SENSE command from the initiator (host system)  
to obtain sense data for error analysis.  
The BUSY LED is on while the optical disk drive is executing seek,  
write, or read operations. The BUSY LED is on momentarily, so it  
seems as if it blinked or is off.  
The eject motor turns once when the power is turned on so that in case  
the spindle motor position deviates due to shocks received by the drive  
during transport the position is corrected to allow the cartridge to be  
inserted normally. If the cartridge fails to be inserted, remove the  
cartridge and turn on the drive power to turn the eject motor once and  
reinsert the cartridge.  
C156-E142-02EN  
3 - 21  
3.9.2  
Connection check  
When initial operation check terminates normally after the power is turned on, check whether the  
drive is correctly connected by issuing command from the host system. Checking procedure  
depends on the host system configuration.  
If processing terminates abnormally:  
a) If sense data has been obtained by the REQUEST SENSE command, analyze the sense data. If  
the error is recoverable, retry the processing.  
b) Check the following items for AT interface cable connection:  
#
#
All connectors, including other devices, are connected correctly.  
Make sure the correct cable is being used (whether it corresponds with the cable selection  
mode).  
c) Make sure again that the jumper settings are correct.  
3.10  
Dismounting Drive  
How to demount an optical disk drive (for setting terminal checking, setting change, or device  
replacement) depends on the system cabinet configuration. Determine the demounting procedure  
in consideration of the requirements of each system. This section describes the general  
demounting procedure and notes on demounting drives.  
Device damage  
Before demounting the optical disk drive, turn off the system power.  
Do not remove screws securing the cables and drive when the power is  
on.  
1) Remove the power cable.  
2) Remove the AT interface cable.  
3) Remove the DC ground cable.  
4) Remove the four screws securing the drive, then remove the drive from the system cabinet.  
5) When storing or transporting the drive, put the drive into an antistatic bag. (See Section 3.6.)

BSY (Busy) is set during command block register control. When BSY is 1, the ODD ignores  
all command block registers other than the Device Reset command.  
The ODD updates the DRQ and CHECK values only when BSY is 1. After the final block of  
the PIO data-in command is transferred, the BSY bit setting is canceled and the DRQ bit is  
cleared.  
When BSY is 0, the ODD may update the SERVICE bit of the ATAPI Status register and the  
Data register. The ODD does not update all other command block registers and the ATAPI  
Status register bits.  
The ODD sets BSY:

Power-on reset  
!
The ODD performs initialization such as initial diagnostics and default setting. If any  
media is mounted, it also spins up media.  
Hardware reset  
!
The ODD is reset when the RESET- signal is asserted. The ODD initializes the interface  
controller by setting default values.  
ATA reset (Software reset)  
!
!
The ODD is reset when the SRST bit of the Device Control register is set.  
The device driver should not use the SRST bit to reset the ODD (except for restore from  
sleep mode).  
!
After ATA reset, the ODD initializes the task file as shown below.  
Status = X'00'  
Error = (Depending on the SRST sequence)  
Sector Count = X'01'  
Sector number = X'01'  
Cylinder Low = X'14'  
Cylinder High = X'EB'

!
!
RDBY is set to 1 with the first command after ATA reset.  
If ATA reset is issued while the ODD is selected and a command is being executed (BSY  
= 1 or DRQ = 1), the command is interrupted. Otherwise, the ODD continues command  
processing.

Defect sector management  
Sector mapping is executed based on the ISO/IEC 10090 standard for 128 MB media, the ISO/IEC  
13963 standard for 230 MB media, the ISO/IEC 15041 standard for 540 and 640 MB media, and  
the GIGAMO 90 mm Magneto-optical Disk System - System Description standard for 1.3 GB .  
Basically, possibly defective sector management is not required for the host.  
Defective sectors cannot be deleted from the host, except for certifying recordable areas.  
Recordable areas can be certified with the FORMAT UNIT command.  
4.4.3  
Automatic alternate sector assignment function  
The ODD automatically assigns an alternate sector if a verify error is detected in the ID or data  
section during the WRITE (I0) command, WRITE (12) command or WRITE AND VERIFY and  
ERASE command. Alternate sector information is registered in SDL (Secondary Defect List) on  
media.  
After automatic alternate assignment terminates successfully, the ODD does not report any error.

4.4.5  
Cache function  
The ODD supports the read cache and MO write cache.  
The read cache consists of the read ahead cache and the LRU cache that reads write data remaining  
in the data buffer.  
The read ahead cache allows for data transfer at a near effective transfer speed during continuous  
read operation without causing any delay owing to rotation latency. LRU allows for data transfer  
with no mechanical operation if write and read operations are executed frequently on the same  
sector.  
The MO write cache writes data in batch mode during continuous write operation, thus reducing  
positioning operations depending on the buffer size and recovering the write throughput.  
4.4.5.1 Data buffer  
The ODD uses part of the buffer area as work memory for control firmware and the remaining area  
as a buffer. The data buffer consists of plural segments and contains write data of plural segments.  
4.4.5.2 Read cache  
The ODD enables the read ahead cache and LRU cache when the cache function is enabled. When  
the read cache is enabled, the ODD contiguously prereads the specified sector, then prereading the  
next sector when receiving a READ (10) or READ (12) command (called Read command in this  
document). While prereading the next sector, the ODD transfers the data in the sector specified by  
the command.  
When data in the sector specified by the host hits preread data, the ODD transfers data directly  
from the buffer without any mechanical operation.  
Preread stops under the following conditions:  
!
!
!
!
Access to the alternate sector  
Read error and retry  
Logical zone boundary of media  
When a read command is received for a sector not continuous from the sector specified by the  
previous read command  
!
!
!
!
When a command other than Read is received  
When the data buffer is full  
Media ejection instruction using the Eject switch  
Hardware reset, software reset, DEVICE RESET command is received, or power-off  
C156-E142-02EN  
4 - 15  
When the cache is enabled, the buffer contains data transferred from the host with a write  
command. If a read command is issued to the sector address at this time, the ODD directly  
transfers data to the high-level equipment from the data buffer without reading it from media. If  
the cache is hit with a read command, the ODD makes the data in the hit segment being kept in the  
highest priority.  
The data listed below cannot be stored in the read cache.  
!
!
Data once transferred to the host during prereading  
Data read before hardware reset, software reset, DEVICE RESET command is received, or

When media is ejected  
When the FORMAT UNIT command is received  
In standby mode  
In sleep mode  
When the system receives a command (such as MODE SELECT and SET FEATURES) that  
may change the operating mode  
4.4.5.3 MO write cache  
When the write cache is enabled, the ODD responds to the host with command end. This occurs  
when the data transfer is done with the WRITE (10), WRITE (12), or WRITE AND VERIFY  
command (hereafter "Write command" in this document). If Write commands are continuously  
issued, the ODD responds to the host with command end when the data transfer is completed. This  
occurs if the specified sector is continuous from the sector specified by the previous command.  
The ODD writes data kept in the buffer to media under the following conditions:  
!
!
When data can be written on media during data transfer with a Write command or while the  
ODD is waiting for a command  
When a command that requires a new segment is received while all segments in the data buffer  
are used  
!
!
When the Eject switch is pressed  
When the SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command is received/DEVICE RESET command is  
received

Media status notification function  
The media status notification function notifies the host of various information on the removable  
media device. The function is enabled or disabled with the SET FEATURES command.  
When the media status notification function is enabled, the functions below will be added or  
changed.  
!
!
The GET MEDIA STATUS command is enabled.  
The Eject switch is disabled.  
The media status notification function is disabled at power-on reset, software reset, ATAPI reset,  
or when the EXECUTE DEVICE DIAGNOSTIC command is received.  
4.4.7  
Power management function  
The ODD provides the power management function that minimizes the power consumed. For this  
function, the ODD has some control commands and a timer. The host uses the functions below to  
control the power management function.  
1) Standby timer  
2) Idle Immediate command  
3) Sleep command  
4) Standby Immediate command

!
Active mode  
Pre-idle mode

4.4.7.2 Active mode  
In active mode, all circuits are enabled. The ODD requires the shortest time to start processing a  
command.  
4.4.7.3 Pre-idle mode  
In pre-idle mode, the read/write circuits stop. The ODD can receive a command from the host, but  
since some circuits stop, the command requires 20 ms to access media.  
The ODD automatically enters pre-idle mode if no command is issued within a specified time (0.5  
second) in active mode. When it receives an access command, the ODD automatically enters  
active mode. The pre-idle mode cannot be controlled from the host computer.  
4.4.7.4 Idle mode  
In idle mode, the servo and read/write circuits stop. The ODD can receive a command from the  
host, but because some circuits stop, the ODD takes 1.0 seconds (standard) to access media.  
If no command is issued within a specified time (180 seconds) in active mode, the ODD  
automatically enters pre-idle mode, then enters idle mode. When it receives an access command,  
the ODD automatically returns active mode. The Idle Immediate command can shift the ODD  
from active mode or standby mode to idle mode.  
4.4.7.5 Standby mode  
In standby mode, the spindle mode stops. The ODD can receive a command from the host, but  
since the spindle motor stops, the recovery to access media takes 5 seconds (standard).  
The ODD automatically enters standby mode from active mode if no command is issued within a  
specified time when the standby timer is enabled. When it receives a command, the ODD  
automatically returns active mode. The Standby Immediate command can also directly shift the  
ODD from active or idle mode to standby mode.

C156-E142-02EN  
4.4.7.6 Sleep mode  
Sleep mode uses power consumption as standby mode. To set the ODD in sleep mode, the host  
must issue the Sleep command. To restore the ODD from sleep mode, hardware reset or software  
reset is required. The host must not issue any command after the Sleep command. The ODD  
requires 15 seconds (standard) to respond.  
4.4.7.7 Standby timer  
The standby timer is used to count the time during which the host issues no command.  
The standby timer value is programmable with the MODE SELECT command. The default value  
is 32 minutes.

The ODD control firmware is stored on the flash ROM and can be downloaded from the host with  
the WRITE BUFFER command. However, if any problem occurs during downloading, such as  
power failure, downloading is interrupted and the microcodes in the control firmware may be  
damaged. To download microcode data again in such a case, the ODD starts the emergency  
download firmware that simply supports only the WRITE BUFFER command and other basic  
commands.

When the ODD receives this command, it transfers device parameter information to the host. It  
accepts this command even if in standby mode.  
Table 4.20 lists the transfer data format. The reserved word indicates a value of 0.  
The transfer byte length is 512 bytes.  
One-word information uses DD15 as MSB (Most Significant Bit) and DD0 as LSB (Least  
Significant Bit).  
For ASCII character information such as base serial number, firmware version number, and  
product number, the first character code in the string uses word 1, DD15 to 8; the second character  
code uses word 1, DD7 to 0; the third character code uses word 2, DD15 to 8; and so on.

When the ODD receives this command, it recognizes self-diagnostics.  
When the ODD receives this command, it responds to the command regardless of the DRV bit  
value; this means that the drive is unit 0 or 1.  
When the ODD is device 0 (master), its response after the command is received depends on  
whether device 1 (slave) is connected.  
When no device 1 is connected  
The ODD sets X'01' in the Error register and terminates the command.  
When device 1 is connected  
The ODD monitors the PDIAG- signal sent from device 1 for six seconds. If device 1 asserts the  
PDIAG- signal within this time, the ODD recognizes that the device 1 self-diagnostic test ends  
successfully. Otherwise, the ODD recognizes that the device 1 self-diagnostic test ended  
C156-E142-02EN  
4 - 29  
abnormally and the ODD makes OR-operation to its self-diagnostics results of unit 0 (Device 0)  
with X'80' and sets it in the Error register. If device 1 ends abnormally, the ODD sets the CHECK  
bit of the Status register.  
When the ODD is device 1  
The ODD asserts the PDIAG- signal within five seconds. It sets X'01' in the Error register and  
ends the command.

The SLEEP command sets the ODD in sleep mode. The ODD enters sleep mode by following the  
steps given below.  
1. The ODD spins down media.  
2. The ODD issues an interrupt to the host to report command end. After the host receives the  
interrupt, the ODD deactivates the interface. Once the interface becomes inactive, the  
ODD ignores all resets except software reset and hardware reset.  
A software reset or hardware reset is required for a return from sleep mode.  
Software reset is recommended for returning from sleep mode.

When the AWRE (Automatic Write Reallocation Enable) bit is 0, no automatic alternate block  
assignment is made for the WRITE (10), WRITE (12), or WRITE AND VERIFY command.  
When the bit of AWRE is 1, automatic alternate block assignment is made.  
When the RC (Read Continuous) bit is 0, the command reports an error if an uncorrectable data  
error is detected in the READ (10) or READ (12) command. When the bit of RC is 1, the  
command transfers the wrong data and ends normally even if an uncorrectable error is detected.  
When the PER (Post Error) bit is 0, the command reports the GOOD status when it recovers the  
normal state by using the error recovery process. When the bit of PER is 1, the command reports  
the CHECK CONDITION status when it recovers the normal state by using the error recovery  
process. At this time, Sense key is set with RECOVERED ERROR.  
RECOVERED ERROR is reported:  
!
When 7 to 8 error bytes per interleaving was corrected by the ECC correction during read  
operation  
!
!
When a defect sector is detected and replaced with an alternate sector during a write operation  
When an error occurs in one of four sets of media data during media management information  
(DMA) write operation with the FORMAT UNIT command (MEDIUM ERROR is set if an  
error occurs in two, three, or four sets of four sets.)  
When the DCR (Disable Correction) bit is 0, the command corrects errors if a correctable error is  
detected in the READ (10) or READ (12) command. When the bit of DCR is 1, the command  
does not correct errors even if a correctable error is detected.

Read Retry Count must not be 3 or smaller. If a value of 3 or smaller is specified, the command  
assumes 4 and reports Recovered Error.  
Write Retry Count must not be a value other than 3. If a value other than 3 is specified, the  
command assumes 3 and reports Recovered Error.  
Write Retry operation is complicate and not always executed three times.  
To assure media compatibility, the read-write error recovery page should be set to the default

Optical Disk Cartridge Operation  
Cleaning Optical Disk Cartridge  
This chapter describes how to operate and clean the drive and the optical disk cartridges.  
5.1  
Operating Optical Disk Drive  
The drive has an automatic load function. All the operator must do is to insert the optical disk  
cartridge and operate the eject button.  
This section explains loading and ejection methods, assuming that the drive is mounted  
horizontally. (When mounted vertically, the drive is operated in the same manner as when  
mounted horizontally.)  
Figure 5.1 shows the front view of the optical disk drive. For operation, users should be familiar  
with the parts in the figure and their function. Loading and ejection methods are described below.  
5.1.1  
Optical disk drive  
1) Disk insertion slot  
2) Eject button/BUSY LED  
3) Manual eject hole  
Figure 5.1 Optical disk drive front view (with panel)  
The following explains the parts and functions of the optical disk drive (the following numbers  
correspond to the numbers in Figures 5.1):  
C156-E142-02EN  
5 - 1  
1) Disk insertion slot  
Use this slot to insert and eject the optical disk cartridge.  
2) Eject button & BUSY LED (display lamp)  
On this optical disk drive, this is the push button combining the eject button with the BUSY  
LED (display lamp) for ejecting the optical disk cartridge (it lights in green during seeking and  
during erasing, writing or reading of data). When ejection is disabled by the SCSI command,  
the optical disk cartridge cannot be taken out.  
3) Manual eject hole  
This hole is used to eject the optical disk cartridge manually at power-off. Manual ejection  
may not be possible just after the power is off.  
5.1.2  
Note  
To maintain the performance and reliability of the drive, keep the following point in mind:  
!
!
!
When the drive is in the busy state, do not eject the optical disk cartridge.  
Particularly, do not manually eject the cartridge by force.  
Be careful sufficiently not to insert the different drive (etc. floppy disk) or substance, so it is  
cause of the accident.  
5.1.3  
Inserting cartridge  
Insert the cartridge as explained below.  
(1)  
When the drive power is on:  
1) Make sure that no disk cartridge is in the drive.  
2) Keep the cartridge shutter surface upward.  
3) Insert the cartridge, shutter first, into the disk insertion slot.  
4) Push the cartridge into the slot until it completes moving below (a little further in than the  
operator panel).  
Loading is started when the cartridge is inserted. After several seconds, the BUSY LED  
indicator lamp is turned on and immediately turned off to complete loading.  
5 - 2  
C156-E142-02EN  
Notes  
1) The cartridge must be completely inserted until the BUSY LED indicator lamp is lit.  
2) If the cartridge is inserted by pushing either left or right side of the cartridge rear, it may  
not be inserted completely. Be sure to push the central part straight into the drive until it  
is completely inserted.  
3) If the BUSY LED indicator lamp does not light when the cartridge is inserted, once eject  
the cartridge by pressing the eject/BUSY LED button and insert it again.  
4) If you attempt to insert the cartridge by force, trouble may result in the drive. In such a  
case, be sure to once remove the cartridge and check the insertion direction and the face  
and back of the cartridge before inserting it again.  
(2)  
When the drive power is off:  
1) Make sure that no optical disk cartridge is in the disk drive.  
2) Keep the cartridge shutter surface upward.  
3) Insert the cartridge, shutter first, into the disk insertion slot.  
4) Push the cartridge into the slot until it completes moving below (a little further in than the  
operator panel).  
The cartridge remains inserted in the drive. The BUSY LED indicator lamp lights when the drive  
power is turned on.  
The cartridge remains inserted in the drive. Turning on the drive power starts loading. (The LED  
indicator lamp should light.)  
Notes  
1) If the BUSY LED indicator lamp does not light when the power is turned on, once eject  
the cartridge by pressing the eject button and insert it again until the lamp is lit.  
2) If the cartridge is inserted by pushing either left or right side of the cartridge rear, it may  
not be inserted completely. Be sure to push the central part straight into the drive until it  
is completely inserted.  
3) If you attempt to insert the cartridge by force, trouble may result in the drive. In such a  
case, be sure to once remove the cartridge and check the insertion direction and the face  
and back of the cartridge before inserting it again.

Figure 5.2 Inserting cartridge  
5.1.4  
Ejecting (removing) cartridge  
Remove the cartridge as explained below.  
(1)  
When the drive power is on:  
1) The cartridge can be removed by pressing the eject button.  
Notes:  
1. If the command prevents ejection, the cartridge cannot be removed.  
2. Remove the cartridge when completely ejected.  
Note:  
Even if the drive set-up conditions are met, note that the cartridge can drop from the drive after  
ejection depending on the ambient environment and the cartridge's condition.  
(2)  
When the drive power is off:  
If the drive power is off, the cartridge cannot be removed by pressing the eject button. The  
cartridge can be removed by insert the eject jig (accessory) or a pin (diameter: about 1 mm) into  
the manual eject hole.  
Notes  
1) NEVER attempt to eject the cartridge while the BUSY LED lamp is on. The data may be  
destroyed or trouble may result in the drive.  
2) Note that the cartridge may drop from the drive when it is ejected.  
5 - 4  
C156-E142-02EN  
3) The optical disk drive unit should not be carried around with a cartridge loaded inside.

Cleaning Drive  
When a dust or smoke of cigarette is stained to the lens actuator, a performance of whole drive  
may be down. Clean the lens actuator periodically using following head cleaner.  
Note:  
Cleaning period differs depending on the installation condition. Usually, cleaning period is  
once a three months.  
Table 5.1 Head cleaner

This chapter contains diagnosis and maintenance information.  
6.1  
Diagnosis  
Table 6.1 shows a test executed by the diagnostic function.  
The drive has a self-diagnostic function. This function can check the basic operations of the drive.  
A test program running in the host system is required to check general operations, including  
operations of the interface with the host system. (See Subsection 6.1.3.)

6.1.1  
Initial self-diagnosis  
When the power is turned on, the optical disk drive starts initial self-diagnosis. Basic hardware  
functions are tested during initial self-diagnosis.  
The hardware function test checks the normality of the basic controller operation. This test  
includes the normality check of the ROM in which microcodes are stored, microprocessor (MPU)  
peripheral circuit test, memory (RAM) test, and data buffer test.  
If an error is detected during initial self-diagnosis, the LED on the drive front panel blinks.  
6.1.2  
6.1.3  
Diagnostic command  
The host system can make the ODD execute the self diagnosis by issuing the EXECUTIVE  
DEVICE DIAGNOSTIC command. See Section 4.7.2, “EXECUTIVE DEVICE DIAGNOSTIC”,  
in details.  
Test program  
A test program running in the host system is required to check general operations such as  
operations of the interface with the host system and simulated operations.  
The configuration and function of the test program depend on the user system requirements.  
The test program should include the following tests:  
(1)  
(2)  
Random/sequential read test  
Use the READ or VERIFY command to test positioning (seek) operation and read operation in  
random access mode and sequential access mode.  
Write/read test  
Use a disk whose operation check data may be destroyed so that a write or read test can be  
executed with an arbitrary data pattern.
