Overview

The lists below summarize important information about your CD-ROM drive.

Features

The CD-ROM drive for the HP OmniBook:

• Connects to your OmniBook with the supplied SCSI adapter cable.

• Plays both data and audio CDs while attached to your OmniBook.

• Plays audio CDs as a stand-alone CD player.

• Can be powered by either a power cable or batteries.

• Is MPC1 and MPC2 compatible.

Precautions

• Use only the HP power cable and an HP-approved ac adapter with the CD-ROM

drive.

• Do not smudge or scratch the surface of a CD.

• Do not place heavy objects on the CD-ROM drive.

• Do not shake or subject the CD-ROM drive to vibration.

• Keep the disk cover closed to protect the disk compartment from dust.

• Do not disassemble the CD-ROM drive.

• Do not spill liquid on the CD-ROM drive.

• Do not touch the lens (see “Maintenance”).

• Do not expose the CD-ROM drive to direct sunlight or heat. (The interior of an

automobile on a sunny day can be hot enough to damage the CD-ROM drive.)

• Do not operate the CD-ROM drive while moving it.

Accessories

The following accessories are included with the CD-ROM drive:

• Power cable for the CD-ROM drive (HP part number F1118A).

• OmniBook SCSI adapter cable (HP part number F1182A).

Setting Up Your CD-ROM Drive

WARNING

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this product to rain or any

other type of moisture.

This CD-ROM drive can be used with apower cable or batteries (batteries not

supplied). Because of high power demands when accessing data CDs, batteries are

not recommended. For audio CDs, batteries work well.

To connect the power cable

Connect one end of the CD-ROM power cable to the DC IN jack on the CD-ROM

drive and the other end to the OmniBook, then connect the OmniBook ac adapter.

CAUTION

The OmniBook’s F1044B ac adapter can power the OmniBook with the CD-

ROM drive only, and not the docking system or the Power Clip battery charger

at the same time. Attempting to power more than one of these peripheral

devices with this adapter can cause data loss or hardware damage to your

systems. To use more than one of these peripheral devices.at a time, you must

either give each additional device its own ac adapter or acquire an HP F1140A

ac adapter instead, which can power all these devices simultaneously.

To use batteries in your CD-ROM drive

Alkaline batteries are recommended.

1. Open the battery cover by sliding it out and lifting it up.

2. Insert six “AA”size batteries, making sure to match the polarities to the diagram

in the battery compartment.

3. Replace the battery cover.

Replace the batteries when you see the flashing low-battery indicator appear on the

CD-ROM display. Normal battery life while accessing data CDs is 30 to 45 minutes.

While playing audio CDs,it is approximately 4 hours.

CAUTION

Batteries contain corrosive materials, which can damage equipment and cause

injury.

• Install batteries according to the diagram in the battery compartment.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, or alkaline batteries with any other

battery type.

• Remove all batteries when not using the CD-ROM drive for extended

periods.

• Do not charge, short circuit, disass emble, heat, or burn batteries.

To connect the CD-ROM drive to your OmniBook

CAUTION

Before you turn on the CD-ROM drive for the first time, remove the cardboard

shipping insert from inside the

compartment.

1. Make sure the CD-ROM drive has power—see “To use the power cable”or “To

use batteries in your CD-ROM drive”earlier in this section.

2. Turn on the CD-ROM drive by pressing the POWER switch. A blinking “on”

appears on the display of the CD-ROM drive.

3. Connect the 50-pin end of the SCSI adapter cable to the CD-ROM drive’s SCSI

connector.(If you’re also connecting other SCSI devices, see “Connecting

Several SCSI Devices”farther below.)

4. Important : the CD-ROM drive must be on when the cable connects the drive

and the computer in order for the computer to register the presence of the CD-

ROM drive. After the CD-ROM drive is turned on and connected to the SCSI

cable, connect the 80-pin end of the cable to the OmniBook’s docking/SCSI

connector.

The new connection at the docking/SCSI connector causes a “docking event”

on the OmniBook. Your response depends on your operating system:

• For Windows 95, the computer automatically detects the new configuration

with the CD-ROM drive. The first time you connect the CD-ROM drive, the

OmniBook will take several minutes to set up this new SCSI configuration. It

will name this configuration “Dock1”or “Dock2”.

• For Windows for Workgroups, exit Windows and press CTRL+ALT+DEL to

restart your OmniBook and set up the CD-ROM drive for access—you may

be prompted to do this.

5. For Windows 95, remove the SCSI device from the Undocked configuration as

follows. If you do not do this, the OmniBook might stop responding (lock up)

when the CD-ROM drive is removed (undocked).

Right-click My Computer, select Properties, and click the Device Manager tab.

Double-click SCSI controllers, then select

Symbios Logic 8100S PCI SCSI Host Adapter,

and click the Remove button.

In the Confirm Device Removal box, enable

Remove from specific configuration.

Under Configuration, select Undocked, then click the OK button.

To turn off or disconnect the CD-ROM drive, see “To turn off the CD-ROM drive,”the

next topic below.

Entering Power Save Mode

During periods of inactivity, the CD-ROM drive saves power by turning off the laser

and stopping the drive motor. This occurs under the following conditions:

• When the CD-ROM drive receives no commands from the OmniBook for

4minutes (if they’re connected), and

• When you don’t press any buttons for 4 minutes.

Connecting Several SCSI Devices

Because the CD-ROM drive is a SCSI device, it is possible to connect it to your

OmniBook in series with other SCSI devices—this is called a “daisy chain”

connection. Follow these guidelines for connecting your CD-ROM drive with other

SCSI devices:

• The CD-ROM drive must be the last device in the daisy chain (the furthest from

the OmniBook).

• The CD-ROM drive terminator DIP switch (switch 4) must be set to ON.

• Each device in the daisy chain must have a unique SCSI ID number that is not

zero.

• All SCSI cables must use shielded cable with the proper connector ends. The

cable should be shorter than 5 feet (1.5 meters).

The SCSI terminator and ID number DIP switches are located on the bottom of the

CD-ROM drive. Each switch is numbered:1 through 3 are the ID number switches,

and 4 is the terminator switch.

The table below shows how to set the ID switches for different SCSI ID numbers.
