3.2. Rear Panel of CRW2100SXZ (SCSI)
Before beginning the short process to install your new Yamaha CD-RW 3-in-1 drive, please
take a moment to familiarize yourself with the rear panel of the drive as illustrated below:
(The layout of your actual drive may be slightly different due to ongoing improvements.)
3.3. Drive Setings (SCSI)
SCSI interface allows the connection of peripheral devices (both internal and external) to a
computer. Each SCSI peripheral has two SCSI connectors. By looping out of one device into
the next, it is possible to “daisy-chain” peripherals. The illustration below shows a properly
configured SCSI chain with both internal and external devices installed.
3.3.1. SCSI ID Settings
The SCSI ID number is used so that the computer will recognize a connected SCSI device.
You can assign 0 through 7 as the SCSI ID number. Usually, “7” is reserved for the SCSI
card ID number, and “0” is reserved for the first SCSI device in the chain. Use a number
between 1 and 6 for your new CD-RW drive. To set a SCSI ID number, use the switch on
the rear panel. The factory set ID number is “1”.

Power connector
Connect the included
power cable here.
SCSI connectors
Connect either of these to
your computer’s SCSI
adapter card using the
SCSI cable. The other
connector can be used as
a pass-through when
daisy-chaining more SCSI
devices to it. It can be left
vacant if your drive is the
last device on the SCSI
chain and is terminated.
LINE OUT connectors
To listen to audio CDs with
your drive, connect these
to the line-level input (LINE
IN) of your stereo
equipment using a
standard stereo phono
cable (sold separately).
CDR ID selector switch
The drive’s SCSI ID
number is shown in the
switch’s window. Press
the button above the
window to decrement the
SCSI ID number, or the
button below the window
to increment it. (P.10)
TERMINATOR switch
This enables the drive’s
built-in SCSI termination.
Switch this to “ON” if your
drive is the last device on
the SCSI chain. Otherwise,
switch it to
“OFF.” (P.11)

Important Note: If you are using other SCSI devices, be sure to use a unique IDnumber for each device. Be
sure to turn off the power to the drive before you set the SCSI number.
