1 Introduction
This manual presents the information needed to
configure and install your RZ series disk drive.
Before unpacking or handling the drive or attempting
any installation, please read through this manual,
including all warnings and cautions.
The RZ73 is a full-height 5.25 inch disk drive with a
formatted capacity of 2000 megabytes and a singleended (S) or differential (D) SCSI-2 interface.
The RZ74 is a full-height 5.25 inch disk drive with a
formatted capacity of 3570 megabytes and a singleended (S) SCSI-2 interface.

CAUTION
Handle the disk drive with care. Observe
antistatic precautions. Static electricity can
damage integrated circuits. Always use a
properly grounded wrist strap and antistatic
pad when removing the disk drive from its
antistatic bag and handling it outside the
bag.

2 SCSI Address and Options
Selections
An option connector on the printed circuit module is
used to set the SCSI address and select the various
operating options that are described in the following
paragraphs. Jumpers are placed across specific pins
in the connector to select the desired SCSI address
and operating options. The connector and various
jumper placements are shown in the figures that
follow.

SCSI Bus Address Selection
Three pairs of pins on the option connector are
used to set the disk drive’s address on the SCSI
bus. The drive will accept addresses 0 through
7. Each device on a SCSI bus must be assigned a
unique address. Typically the first drive on the bus is
assigned address 0, the second drive address 1, and
so on. SCSI address 7 is typically reserved for the
host adapter.

Spin Up Option Selection
When a jumper is installed across pins 13 and 14 of
the option connector the disk drive will spin up when
power is applied. Without the jumper the drive waits
for a START UNIT command before spinning up.
The disk drive spins down when power is removed or
when a fault condition is detected.

Firmware Load Option Selection
The capability to update the drive’s internal flash
ROM has been provided to allow firmware updates
to be made in the field. In order to update the flash
ROM the following steps should be taken:

1. Apply power to the drive.
2. Install the jumper across pins 19 and 20 of the
option connector.

3. Load the firmware update.
4. Remove jumper when the update is complete.
Power should NOT be applied to the drive with the
jumper installed.

LED Indicator Options Selections
The bottom rear of the disk drive has two surface
mounted LED indicators, busy (BSY, green) and fault
(FLT, amber). These indicators are operational only
when jumpers are installed as described below.

The busy LED indicates that the drive is working on
a SCSI command. It is not equivalent to the SCSI
BSY signal. The fault LED indicates a drive fault
condition. It is normal for both indicators, if enabled
by their jumpers, to light briefly upon application of
power as a lamp test.

Remote Options
The option connector can be used to remotely control
or monitor certain drive functions. When the remote
control panel is to be used, jumpers are removed from
the option connector and are replaced by a cable(s)
to the remote panel. The supported remote options
include:
•

Selection of SCSI address from external switches,
such as on an operator control panel.

•

Monitoring busy and fault conditions with
external LED indicators instead of those on
the drive. (The user must provide external
current-limiting resistors to limit the current to
6mA or less. No current limiting resistors are
necessary if the LED is rated to handle up to 7
mA maximum.)
A front bezel with a BUSY LED mounted
may have been installed at the factory. The
associated cable has to be connected to the
option connector in the following manner:
black lead to pin 9 and red lead to pin 11.
Note
In this case no current-limiting resistors are
needed.

•

Remote power supply notification to the drive of
AC power failure.
If the power supply warns the drive at least
1.0 milliseconds before the voltages become
unsafe, the drive will prevent write splices (write
interruptions within a data sector). Unsafe
voltages levels (measured at the drive connector)
are voltages outside the following;
4.690 to 5.557 for the +5Vdc supply
10.994 to 13.399 for the +12Vdc supply

The following diagram shows proper connection of
remote options.

Spindle Synchronization Option (RZ74 only)
Spindle synchronization for the RZ74 is enabled by
the installation of a daisy-chain cable from drive to
drive. This cable should connect pin 21 to the daisychained SPINDLE_SYNC_REF SIGNAL, using pin 22
as its ground reference.

3 SCSI Bus Termination
RZ73 Termination
The RZ73 disk drive can provide terminator power
to its own termination resistor packs (if installed)
and/or to the SCSI bus. Alternatively, the drive’s
termination resistor packs can be powered from
the SCSI bus. The figure below shows the proper
jumper arrangements for each terminator power
configuration.
In all cases, the drive’s termination resistor packs are
to be installed ONLY if the drive is at the end of the
SCSI bus.

RZ74 Termination
The RZ74 disk drive is capable of supplying
termination power to the SCSI bus, as well as
providing active termination to the bus. The
RZ74 drive does not use removable resistor packs
for termination. The figure shows the proper
jumper arrangements for each terminator power
configuration.
Active termination should be enabled ONLY if the
drive is at the end of the SCSI bus.

5 Mounting
The disk drive may be mounted in any orientation.
Allow 0.10 inches clearance between the HDA and all
adjancent surfaces, and sufficent slack in all cables,
to provide for motion of the drive on its shock mounts
relative to the drive frame.
The drive is mounted with four 6-32 screws. The
mounting screws should not exceed more than 0.02
inches beyond the inside surface on the drive frame.
CAUTION
Screws longer than necessary will defeat the
shock mounting and could damage the drive.
