Troubleshooting
If you suspect trouble, check the status of operations for the
following situations:
7 The power indicator does not light.
÷ Has the power cord been connected properly?
÷ Has the POWER switch been turned ON?
7 The PC does not properly recognize and
start up SCSI device.
÷ Before starting up the computer, did you connect all
SCSI devices then turn the power ON?
First turn ON the power for all of the SCSI devices in
the SCSI chain then start the PC.
÷ Has the cable been connected properly?
Connect all cables to their proper ports.
÷ Was the SCSI ID set correctly?
Assign all SCSI devices in the SCSI chain different
IDs.
÷ Has the TERMINATION switch been set properly?
When the DVD-R Drive is the only SCSI device or
when it is the final terminal in the SCSI daisy chain,
set the TERMINATION switch to “ON”.
÷ Has an appropriate software device driver been installed
for the combination of the DVD-R Drive and the
computer?
If abnormalities persist, please contact your after-sales
services representative or your sales dealer.
Routine Upkeep
Wipe the cabinet and all surfaces with a dry, soft cloth. If the
dust is substantial, soak a soft cloth in a neutral cleanser
diluted 5 to 6 times with water and wring it out thoroughly.
Wipe away any dirt. Then, use a dry cloth to wipe off any
remaining moisture.
Do not use benzene, thinner, insecticide or any other volatile
substance that could damage the surface of the device. In
addition, if using a chemical cleaning cloth, make sure to
thoroughly read the usage cautions first.
