Introduction  
ongratulations on the purchase of your Toshiba  
XM-6401B CD-ROM drive. This manual will  
provide you with the information you will need to install and  
C
operate your new CD-ROM.  
This manual covers both the internal CD-ROM (XM-6401B) and the  
external CD-ROM (TXM6401F1). Instructions in this manual apply  
to both models, unless otherwise stated.

SCSI DRIVES  
he XM-6401B is a SCSI-2 (Small Computer Systems Inter-  
face) device. Some other SCSI devices you may already have  
connected to your computer are scanners, tape drives, or an-  
other CD-ROM drive.  
T
PC SYSTEMS: To add a SCSI device to your computer, you must  
have a SCSI interface card already in place. The interface card fits into  
one of the slots inside your computer and connects to your CD-ROM  
device via a SCSI cable.  
Your CD-ROM also requires a software driver to be installed. This  
driver is written for the SCSI interface card you are using. If you do  
not have the CD software driver, contact your SCSI card manufac-  
turer (do not contact Toshiba).  
APPLE MACINTOSH SYSTEMS: If you are connecting the XM-  
6401B CD-ROM to an Apple Macintosh system, there is no need to  
install an interface card, as Apple systems have a built-in SCSI port.  
You will need a CD-ROM software driver written for the Macintosh  
that supports Toshiba CD-ROMs. (Toshiba recommends CD-ROM  
Tool Kit by FWB Inc.)*  
* CD-ROM Tool Kit can be purchased from Advanced Multimedia  
Concepts (AMC), 888-262-9700.

IMPORTANT NOTE  
Before you begin installing your CD-ROM, make sure your  
computer is switched OFF and the power cable is disconnected.  
CD-ROM JUMPER SETTINGS  
In order for your CD-ROM to work properly, it may be necessary for  
you to change the CD-ROM’s jumper settings.  
Locate the block of jumpers on the back left side of the CD-ROM.  
Jumper Location  
Jumpers can be set in either an ON mode or OFF mode. If the jumper  
covers both pins on the jumper block, it is ON, if there is no jumper or  
only one of the pins is jumpered, the jumper is OFF. This section will  
discuss the following jumper settings: SCSI ID, Parity, Eject, Test/  
Audio Reproduction, Termination, and Power Supply.

All SCSI devices attached to your computer are assigned a SCSI-ID  
number from 0 to 7. Your CD-ROM’s SCSI ID must be set so that its  
ID number does not conflict with any other device’s SCSI-ID in your  
system. In most cases your CD-ROM will come set to SCSI ID 0. If  
your CD-ROM is the only SCSI device connected to your computer,  
you should leave the jumpers as they are. If you have additional SCSI  
devices (another CD-ROM, hard drive, etc.) you will be “daisy-chain-  
ing” these devices. Each SCSI device must have a different SCSI ID.  
Note that your SCSI interface card in most cases has a SCSI ID of 7.  
The chart below shows the jumper settings for the eight possible ID  
numbers:

Parity Jumper  
The Parity Jumper should be set to OFF (no jumper present). This  
jumper activates/de-activates the parity bit check function on the SCSI  
data bus. This enhances data bus reliability. (Cannot be used if no  
parity generation function is provided on the I/F card.)

Terminator ON/OFF Jumper  
This jumper turns termination power ON or OFF. If you are “daisy-  
chaining” a series of SCSI devices (connecting more than one SCSI  
device to your system), and the XM-6401B CD-ROM is not at the  
end of the chain, you must remove the jumper.  
Eject Prevention Jumper  
This jumper is used to inhibit the operation of the drive’s EJECT but-  
ton. When jumper is set to ON (jumper present), the EJECT button  
will not operate. Setting the jumper to OFF (no jumper present) will  
allow the EJECT button to operate.  
Test/Audio Reproduction Jumper  
The TEST jumper should be set to OFF (no jumper present). Setting it  
in the ON position (jumper present) will provide audio disc reproduc-  
tion (note: SCSI-ID must be set to 0). In audio mode the CD will  
begin at track 1 and continue to the end of the CD. To advance to the  
next track, push eject button for less than a second. Pushing the button  
for more than a second opens the CD tray. When you are in audio disc  
reproduction mode, commands from the host computer are ignored.  
Power Supply Jumper (Termination Power Jumper)  
Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM drives can supply power to other equipment  
on the SCSI BUS. When the jumper is ON, the drive will supply  
termination power. At least one device on the SCSI BUS must supply  
the termination power. If you’re not sure if any other device supplies  
termination power, it is fine to leave the jumper ON.

PLACING CD-ROM INSIDE YOUR COMPUTER  
You are now ready to install your CD-ROM inside your computer.  
You should refer to the book that came with your computer, as com-  
puter casings are different from each other. Usually the casing is at-  
tached to the frame by a number of screws at the back. Turn your  
computer around, so the back faces you, and look for 4 or 6 screws  
around the edge of the casing. Remove the screws and put them some-  
where safe. Lift or slide casing away from computer frame, and place  
aside (make sure to allow yourself enough workspace for the CD-  
ROM installation).  
The XM-6401B CD-ROM drive can be placed in any free half-height  
drive slot at the front of your computer. (It can be mounted horizon-  
tally or vertically.)You most likely will have to remove the cover plate  
which conceals the front of the open slot (see your computer book on  
how to remove panel).  
Carefully start sliding the CD-ROM drive into the opening with the  
disc tray facing the front of the computer. Before you push drive all  
the way in you will need to connect the SCSI interface cable and the  
power cable to the back of the drive.

CABLING  
SCSI - The internal SCSI interface cable is connected to your SCSI  
host adapter card and fits into the socket on the back of your CD-  
ROM. The stripe side (or red-colored side) of the ribbon cable con-  
nects to pin 1 on the drive’s SCSI connector which is found next to the  
drive’s power connector. Carefully push the SCSI connector into the  
socket, making sure it fits snugly.  
Attaching SCSI Cable  
Power - Apply power to your CD-ROM by connecting your computer’s  
+12V/+5V power cable to the power socket at the back of the drive.  
One side of the plug has chamfered edges, so the power connector fits  
only one way. Push plug completely into the socket making sure the  
plug fits into the socket correctly.  
CAUTION!  
Severe damage to the CD-ROM circuits may occur if power cable  
is plugged in upside-down with power ON.

If there is no power cable in your system, contact your computer dealer.  
You may need a “power splitter lead” (a Y shaped cable which taps  
two power outputs from one input).  
Sound (optional) - If you have a sound card and speakers and would  
like to play audio CDs on your computer, you will need to get a sound  
cable. Contact our small parts supplier,AMC at 888/262-9700. Sound  
cables are made for the sound card you are using and the CD-ROM  
drive you are connecting it to. Make sure you have this information  
when purchasing a sound cable. The sound cable connects to your  
sound card at one end and the audio connector at the left rear of the  
CD-ROM at the other end. Refer to the instructions that came with  
your sound card for details on any sound-driver software required.

Daisy-Chaining - If the CD-ROM you are installing is one of two or  
more SCSI devices you have connected to your system, you will need  
to use a custom built SCSI interface cable. Remember that the termi-  
nator jumper on the CD-ROM drive must have the jumper installed  
when the drive is the last device in the chain.

IMPORTANT NOTE  
Before you begin installing your CD-ROM, make sure your  
computer is switched OFF and the power cable is disconnected.  
CD-ROM SCSI ID SETTING  
In order for your CD-ROM to work properly, it may be necessary for  
you to change the CD-ROMs SCSI ID. All SCSI devices attached to  
your computer are assigned a SCSI ID number from 0 to 7.Your CD-  
ROMs SCSI ID must be set so that its ID number does not conflict  
with any other SCSI devices ID in your system. In most cases your  
CD-ROM system will come set to SCSI ID 0. If your CD-ROM is the  
only SCSI device connected to your computer, you should leave the  
SCSI ID switch in the default position. If you have additional SCSI  
devices (another CD-ROM, hard drive, etc.) you will be daisy-chain-  
ingthese devices. Each SCSI device must have a different SCSI ID.  
Note that your SCSI interface card, in most cases, has a SCSI ID of 7.  
The SCSI ID Switch is located on the rear of the CD-ROM Enclo-  
sure. Click button to select a SCSI ID between 0 and 7.

it fits snugly. (If the plug has fixing screws or clips, use them to ensure  
the connector is firmly fixed.) Plug the other end of the cable into one  
of the sockets found on the back of the CD-ROM drive (the other  
connector should have a terminator installed, or if daisy-chaining, be  
attached to another SCSI device).You must use a daisy-chain cable if  
you are connecting more than one SCSI device to your computer.  
Only the last drive in the chain will need to have an external termina-  
tor installed.
