Important Precautions  
Important Precautions  
Please read the following precautions before attempting  
to operate the CRW4261t.  
• Before recording a disc, be sure to clean the disc and  
tray using an air aerosol-type dust remover.  
A dust particle on the disc may cause recording to  
fail, producing an unusable disc.  
• Always record in a dust-free environment. If the disc  
must be removed from the CRW4261t before record-  
ing is finished, store the disc in a clean, dust-free  
environment.  
• The CRW4261t contains no user serviceable parts.  
Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.  
• If any of the following should occur, the CRW4261t  
should be serviced by qualified personnel:  
Metal objects or liquids get inside the CRW4261t.  
The CRW4261t does not operate normally or a  
marked change in performance is noticed.  
• Do not place heavy objects on the CD-RW discs.  
• Do not subject the CRW4261t and computer to  
impact or shock when in use, as this may impair  
recording or playback.  
Yamaha is not responsible for any data or informa-  
tion losses resulting from the operation of the  
CRW4261t.

Introduction  
Introduction  
Thank you for purchasing a Yamaha CRW4261t drive.  
Please read this manual before using the drive in order to make the best  
use of the superior CRW4261t functions.  
After reading, please retain this manual for future reference.  
CRW4261t Features  
2xS Recording (Rewritable) - 4xS Recording (Recordable) -  
6xS Reading  
The CRW4261t is able to write (overwrite) CD-RW discs at double  
speed, and is able to write CD-R discs at quad speed, double speed, or  
normal speed.  
For both types of media, this drive is able to read at up to 6X speed.  
Compatible with Seven Different Formats  
The CRW4261t can both record and read seven different formats: CD-  
ROM, CD-ROM XA, CD-I, CD-DA, CD-Bridge (multisession), CD-  
Extra, and Video CD.  
The CRW4261t is also equipped with an analog audio output terminal  
(headphones) for CD-DA.  
ATAPI for High-Volume, High-Speed Data Transfer  
The CRW4261t features ATAPI/IDE interface for connecting comput-  
ers and peripheral devices.  
ATAPI provides high-speed transmission of large quantities of data,  
which is especially important when working with image data.  
Orange Book Part 2, Part 3 Compatible 5-Mode Recording  
The CRW4261t conforms to the five recording modes outlined in the  
Orange Book Part 2 and 3: Track at Once, Multisession, Disc at Once,  
Session at Once, and Packet Writing.  
1
   
Introduction  
Orange Book Compatible Recording  
Track at Once  
In this mode, data can be recorded to disc one track at a time.  
Discs recorded in this mode cannot be played in CD players or CD-  
ROM drives other than a CD-RW or a CD-R drive until the session is  
closed.  
Multisession  
In this mode, data can be recorded to disc in stages (one session at a  
time).  
Additional data can be written later.  
Disc at Once  
In this mode, data can be recorded to an entire disc in one pass.  
It is not possible to write additional data later.  
Session at Once  
In this mode, data can be recorded to disc one session at a time.  
To use this mode, your software must support Session at Once recording.  
New sessions can be written later.  
Packet Writing  
This is useful for data back-up. Smaller units of data can be added to  
tracks.  
To use this mode, your software must support Packet Writing.  
The CRW4261t supports both sequential and random packet writing.

MASTER/SLAVE settings  
Before you install the CRW4261t in your computer, you must make the  
MASTER/SLAVE setting.  
This setting is set by inserting a jumper pin in the jumper switch  
located on the rear panel of the CRW4261t drive.  
Important: When the unit is shipped from the factory, this setting is in the MASTER  
position.  
Note: Use long-nose pliers to remove or insert the jumper pin.

Jumper Switch  
Enhanced IDE compatible computers normally have two IDE interface  
connectors; a primary one and a secondary one.  
Each IDE interface connector of the host computer allows up to two  
IDE devices to be connected. This means that a total of up to four IDE  
devices can be connected.  
Normally, a hard disk is connected to the primary connector, and a CD-  
ROM drive is connected to the secondary connector.  
Important: Avoid connecting the CRW4261t or a CD-ROM drive to the same pri-  
mary connector as the hard disk drive.  
In order to take full advantage of the system's performance, we recom-  
mend that you connect the CRW4261t to the secondary connector by  
itself as the MASTER.

puter you are using.  
For details on removing the cover from your computer, and installing or  
removing internal devices, refer to the manual for your computer.

Ejecting the Disc  
If the CRW4261t is powered on:  
Press the eject button to eject the disc.  
Note: You cannot eject the disc if the ATAPI command prohibits the eject  
operation while the CRW4261t is reading data.  
Caution: Be sure to remove the disc after it is completely ejected. (Trying to  
remove the disc before it is completely ejected may cause the drive to  
malfunction.)  
Press the eject button  
If the CRW4261t is not powered on:  
Pressing the eject button will not eject the disc.

Chapter 3 - Operation  
Manual Eject (emergency use)  
Here we explain how to eject the disc when it cannot be ejected in the  
normal way; for example, the power is shut off inadvertently or the  
loading mechanism fails. This technique should be used only as a last  
resort. Frequent use may lead to malfunction.  
You’ll need a pin-like object of 2 mm or less in diameter to do this. A  
straightened paper clip makes an ideal tool.  
1. Insert the pin-like tool into the manual eject hole and push  
gently.  
The spring-loaded mechanism ejects the disc.  
2. After manually ejecting a disc, you must turn off the power  
supplied to the CRW4261t, then turn it on before continuing.
