DRM-7000 - 3 - 99/4/30

1. Introduction

This is a SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) command reference to control the C/DVD medium changer, thePIONEER DRM-7000. The contents of this document may be changed without any permissions for improvement.

The command set for the SCSI medium changer devices had appeared at SCSI-2 first and was fixed as X3.131-1994.After that, SCSI was broken up from a single document into different layers and command sets. The command set formedium changer devices are called SMC (SCSI-3 Medium Changer Commands), but there are no major differencesbetween SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 as regards the medium changer devices.

The DRM-7000 is designed to meet the latest working draft of SMC (NCITS T10/999D Revision 10a March 4, 1998)and SPC (SCSI-3 Primary Commands; ANSI X3.301-1997). Refer those documents to have a proper understanding ofany definitions, symbols, abbreviations and conventions.

1.1. General Information

One of the main features of our new large size C/DVD medium changer DRM-7000 is its flexibility of the componentsconfiguration. A detachable disc magazine that is designed to contain fifty C/DVD media and easy handling detachabledrive unit make this feature real. The number of discs and the number of drives are items which each user can choose.

The PIONEER DRM-7000 provides sixteen drive bays, fifteen magazine bays and a special purpose 20-disc magazineslot. As the location for drive bays and a half of location for magazine bays are overlapped, it can handle 720 discs if auser is satisfied with two drives. And if a user would like to improve the specification as a data server, it is possible togive more space to drives up to sixteen. A 50-disc magazine (disc container) occupies as same space astwo drives. So even if every drive bays are used to drive units, 370 discs are still available.

Discs are held in magazines and are transported to drives by the transport robotics. The optional medium turning unit;“Flip Unit” is provided for double-sided DVD media. A conventional mailslot to import a disc into a changer unit fromoutside is equipped and a special purpose 20-disc magazine that is named “Hyper Magazine” is available.


DRM-7000 - 4 - 99/4/30

2. Special Features

As the DRM-7000 is a successor to DRM-5004/1004 series, basic control scheme will be same. But to support andenhance its flexibility some improvements are made. Those are as follows;

The new scheme for EASY CONFIGURATIONThe new scheme for ELEMENT STATUS MAINTENANCEA proposition for OFF-LINE MEDIA MANAGEMENT

2.1. Easy Configuration

When the number of the drives in a changer increases, recognition and establishment of the relation between drives anddata transfer element addresses would be complicated. Since an eight bits SCSI-bus could handle seven target devices, achanger system that has over seven drives should be connected to two or more SCSI host adapters. In the case of suchmulti-bus system, changer system control firmware could not recognize the whole configuration of drives within achanger unit. Therefore a HOST which controls a changer device also could not get the whole information of drivesfrom the changer.

Our new scheme for EASY CONFIGURATION is developed to solve or improve this complicated situation. But thisfeature should be realized in collaboration with primary devices(=drives), a medium changer and a device driver.

At first our newly developed drive is designed to support a unique ID that is delivered to not only a HOST but also achanger controller. A HOST could get the unique ID from the specified drive by issuing the INQUIRY command withthe EVPD bit and a special page code. See “3.5. INQUIRY” and “4.3.3. Device identification page” for details. Thosedescriptions are written for DRM-7000 but the scheme is same for every drive of FlexLibrary series.

Next required command is the READ ELEMENT STATUS that should be issued by the HOST. DRM-7000 returns theunique ID of the specified data transfer element when the DVCID bit is one. Then the HOST could establish the relationbetween the data transfer element address and the drive through the medium of the unique ID.

This scheme is very effective for a multi-bus system and easy to adopt. And this is not a vendor-specific schemebecause the DVCID bit in the READ ELEMENT STATUS command and the EVPD bit in the INQUIRY command areboth optional but defined in SMC and SPC.

2.2. Element Status Maintenance

The medium changer has a memory stack for the status of every storage elements. The status of each storage elementare as follows;

The storage element is(a) filled with a disc(b) empty(c) required to probe(d) missing

The purpose of the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command is to reduce the number of elements in the status-(c).The status of element will change to status-(a) or status-(b) after executing the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUScommand.

Note that the FULL bit of the storage element status could not indicate which status the element is in.When the FULL bit is set to one, it means that the element may be in the status-(a) or in the status-(c). Andwhen the FULL bit is set to zero, it means that the element may be in the status-(b) or in the status-(d). Twostatus for each are not distinguishable by means of the FULL bit only. Of course other element status bitslike EXCEPT or ACCESS and ASC/ASCQ fields could help to distinguish these status but it is somewhatcomplicated.

But the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command has no element address field to specify a probing extent in thecommand descriptor block (CDB). The default extent is from 0001h (the first storage element address) to 0302h (the


DRM-7000 - 5 - 99/4/30

last storage element address). And the changer which has received this command executes the probing action whetheror not those element had been probed. It shall take some minutes to probe whole elements with in a changer.

That is the reason why the initialize element range (IER) page of the MODE SELECT/MODE SENSE command hasbeen introduced to our former changer series. This vendor-specific page has a set of Starting element address andEnding element address. These element addresses given by the IER page with the MODE SELECT commandeliminates the extent of elements which shall be probed by the next INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command.And the element addresses returned by the IER page with the MODE SENSE command indicate the extent of elementswhich has been specified by the IER page with the MODE SELECT.

But there was a problem. The only way to recognize which storage elements or extents of elements ought to be probewas issuing the READ ELEMENT STATUS command. The initialize required elements range (IRER) page isintroduced to improve this inefficiency. The IERE page has the same page code that had been used for the IER page.Indeed, the IERE page is an extension of the former IER page. The meaning of this page with the MODE SELECTcommand is essentially same as the former IER page. But the meaning of this page with the MODE SENSE commandbecomes much more active one.

The IRER page with the MODE SENSE command always indicates which extents of elements are to be probed. Thestatus of the storage elements that are included within the extent of elements are all status-(c). As DRM-7000 adoptsmagazine-type storage components, usually an extent of elements will be a multiple of 50. If the page length field of thereturned IRER page is 00h, it means that every storage elements which are valid in the medium changer has beenprobed and it does not need to execute the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command.

The IRER page with the MODE SELECT command specifies the extents of elements which shall be probed by the nextINITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command.

The IRER page which has been made by issuing the MODE SENSE command will be valid until the IRER page isissued with the MODE SELECT command or updated by another MODE SENSE command for this page. If the IRERpage with the MODE SELECT or MODE SENSE commands has not successfully completed since the last power-onor hard reset condition, the default values of the starting element address is 0001h and the ending element address is0302h. When the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command is issued, DRM-7000 will execute the probingmovements according to the current IRER page.

Note that the MODE SENSE command always rewrites the IRER page to represent current status of the storageelements within the changer. Do not try to reconfirm the result by issuing the MODE SENSE command just afterthe IRER page is rewritten by the MODE SELECT command.

The storage element status may be changed when a Hyper Magazine is inserted or door is closed. Since the changer willget into a UNIT ATTENTION CONDITION and the HOST could sense that condition, the HOST had better use thisscheme to minimize the time losses to probe storage elements in the medium changer. Recommended sequence arebelow;

1. When a UNIT ATTENTION is sensed, issue the IRER page with the MODE SENSE command torecognize the current element status.

2. Issue the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command to probe the initialization required elements.3. Issue the IRER page with the MODE SENSE command to reconfirm the result of the execution of the

INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command.

2.3. Off-line Media Management

Our newly designed disc magazines are intelligent. They have a unique ID for each and the changer controller coulddistinguish each magazines by reading that IDs. This unique ID is written on the ROM-like device.

Other features are not fixed but it may be designed to help the establishment of Off-line Media Management function.See the Programmer’s Guide(DS-S072) for details.

3.1. TEST UNIT READY

The TEST UNIT READY command provides a means to check if the changer is ready for access a medium. This is nota request for a self-test. If the changer would accept an appropriate medium-access command without returning CHECKCONDITION status, this command shall return a GOOD status. Higher-priority responses, like BUSY orRESERVATION CONFLICT, are also permitted.

Table 3 TEST UNIT READY commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code(00h)1 Reserved2 Reserved3 Reserved4 Reserved5 Control Byte(00h)

The TEST UNIT READY command allows an initiator to poll a changer device until it is ready. After a reboot or reset,initiator shall issue the TEST UNIT READY command repeatedly until DRM-7000 returns GOOD status. If thechanger cannot become operational or is in a state such that an initiator action or operator’s action is required to makethe unit ready, the changer returns CHECK CONDITION status with a sense key of NOT READY. Table below definesthe representative responses to the REQUEST SENSE command after issuing the TEST UNIT READY command.

Another important usage of the TEST UNIT READY command is to recognize how the changer is going. Polling achanger device is especially useful to check the Hyper-Magazine and door’s status. These responses above especiallysome UNIT ATTENTION are the messages from a changer to an initiator. They might be a trigger to start the specialsequences to update some element status and component configurations.

3.2. REZERO UNIT

The REZERO UNIT command requests that the changer set the whole elements to a specific state.

Table 5 REZERO UNIT commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0


DRM-7000 returns every discs that has been transported to the drive even if that drive is active. Beware of the timing toissue this command when DVD-R or CD-R drives are used, otherwise the interrupted writing process may damaged themedium. The robotics will go to the initial position after disc returning actions are completed.


DRM-7000 - 8 - 99/4/30

3.3. REQUEST SENSE

The REQUEST SENSE command requests that the changer transfer sense data to the HOST. The most popular usage ofthe REQUEST SENSE command is to obtain the sense data after receiving CHECK CONDITION status that isreturned to the polling TEST UNIT READY commands. See the description for the TEST UNIT READY command.

Table 6 REQUEST SENSE commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code(03h)1 Reserved2 Reserved3 Reserved4 Allocation length5 Control Byte(00h)

CHECK CONDITION status may occur to several execution-type command like MOVE MEDIUM, INITIALIZEELEMENT STATUS and REZERO UNIT. Issuing the REQUEST SENSE command automatically after receivingCHECK CONDITION status shall be a natural way.

DRM-7000 implements error code 70h (current errors) only. The next table is that sense data format. As for a mediumchanger device, there is no deferred error occurred and DRM-7000 does not support any vendor-specific sense dataformat.

Table 7 SENSE DATA FORMAT FOR CURRENT ERRORSByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Valid (0) Error code (70h)1 Segment number2 Filemark(0) EOM(0) ILI(0) Reserved Sense key3 (MSB)4 Information5 (00000000h)6 (LSB)7 Additional sense length (0Ah)8 (MSB)9 Command-specific information10 (00000000h)11 (LSB)12 Additional sense code13 Additional sense code qualifier14 Field replaceable unit code (00h)15 SKSV(0)16 Sense-key specific17 (000000h)

A valid bit of zero indicates that the information field is not as defined in this International Standard. In the case ofDRM-7000, this bit is always set to zero and the information fields are filled with zeros. The segment number field andthe command-specific information field are always filled with zeros because DRM-7000 does not support any of thefollowing commands; COPY, COMPARE, COPY AND VERIFY, SEARCH DATA and REASSIGN BLOCKS. Thefilemark bit, the end-of-medium (EOM) bit and an incorrect length indicator (ILI) are also reserved. Since DRM-7000does not support the field replaceable unit code field and the sense-key specific field, those fields are filled with zerosand the SKSV bit is always set to zero.

Therefore meaningful fields are Sense key, Additional sense code and Additional sense code qualifier. They provide ahierarchy of information. Sense keys that indicate generic information are used typically for high level error recoveryprocedures. Additional sense codes provide further detail describing the sense key. Additional sense code qualifiers addfurther detail to the additional sense code. The intention of the hierarchy is to provide a top-down approach for a HOSTto determine information relating to the error and exception conditions. Sense key, Additional sense code andAdditional sense code qualifier are shown in another chapter of this document.


DRM-7000 - 9 - 99/4/30

3.4. INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS

The INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command will cause the medium changer to probe some or all elements formedium and any other status relevant to that element. The intent of this command is to enable the HOST to get a correctcurrent status from a following READ ELEMENT STATUS command.

Table 8 INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0


There is no element address field to specify a probing extent in the command descriptor block (CDB). The defaultextent is from 0001h (the first storage element address) to 0302h (the last storage element address). This is too wide toexecute at a time. Therefore the initialize required elements range page of the MODE SELECT command is prepared.See the usage of the initialize required elements range page in another chapter of this document.

It is recommended that the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command should be used in accordance with theELEMENT STATUS MENTENANCE guideline. The MODE SENSE and MODE SELECT commands are essentialmembers for this guideline. See “2.2. ELEMENT STATUS MAINTENANCE” in this document.

Although DRM-7000 has a non-volatile memory device which records some status or information of the element, thechanger does not use those information when it receives the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command. DRM-7000probes the whole elements that is specified as an extent. But if this command is received and media are loaded on somedata transfer elements at the moment, the medium transport mechanism does not return those media to their sourcestorage elements and executes this command. Their source storage elements are skipped.


DRM-7000 - 10 - 99/4/30

3.5. INQUIRY

The INQUIRY command requests that information regarding parameters of the changer be sent to the HOST.

Table 9 INQUIRY CommandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code (12h)1 Reserved CmdDt (0) EVPD2 Page Code3 Reserved4 Allocation Length5 Control Byte (00h)

A command support data (CmdDt) bit is not supported. It must be set to zero, otherwise DRM-7000 returns CHECKCONDITION status with the sense key set to ILLEGAL REQUEST and an additional sense code of INVALID FIELDIN CDB.

An enable vital product data (EVPD) bit of one specifies that DRM-7000 returns the optional vital product dataspecified by the page code field. DRM-7000 is our first medium changer product that supports VPD pages. If EVPD bitis zero, DRM-7000 returns the standard INQUIRY data.

When the EVPD bit is one, the page code field specifies which page of vital product data information DRM-7000returns. If the page code field is not zero when EVPD is zero, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status with thesense key set to ILLEGAL REQUEST and an additional sense code of INVALID FIELD IN CDB.

STANDARD INQUIRY DATAThe standard INQUIRY data contains 36 required bytes, followed by a variable number of vendor-specificparameters. The standard INQUIRY data of the DRM-7000 is 47 bytes long. See the STANDARDDINQUIRYDATA in another chapter of this document.

VITAL PRODUCT DATAThis model is our first medium changer which supports vital product data pages. The vital product data informationis requested by setting the EVPD bit to one and specifying the page code of the desired vital product data. Thismodel supports two page codes. One is Device identification page (83h) and another is Supported vital product datapages (00h). If the unsupported page code is requested, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status with thesense key set to ILLEGAL REQUEST and an additional sense code of INVALID FIELD IN CDB. See the VITALPRODUCT DATA in another chapter of this document.

3.6. MODE SELECT(6)

The MODE SELECT(6) command provides a means for a HOST to specify parameters to a medium changer. It is acomplementary command to the MODE SENSE(6) command. A HOST should issue MODE SENSE prior to eachMODE SELECT to determine supported pages, page lengths, and other parameters.

Table 10 MODE SELECT(6) commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code (15h)1 Reserved PF Reserved SP2 Reserved3 Reserved4 Parameter List Length5 Control Byte (00h)

A page format (PF) bit of one indicates that the MODE SELECT parameters following the header and blockdescriptor(s) are structured as pages of related parameters and are as specified in this standard. A PF bit of zeroindicates that all parameters after the block descriptors are vendor-specific. Since DRM-7000 sends the header only if aPF bit is set to zero, it is not useful. A HOST should set PF bit to one.

Since DRM-7000 does not implement saved pages, a save pages (SP) bit must be set to zero. If a SP bit is set to one, thecommand is terminated with CHECK CONDITION status. The sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST, and theadditional sense code set to SAVING PARAMETER IS NOT SUPPORTED.

The parameter list length field specifies the length in bytes of the mode parameter list that is contained in the Data-OutBuffer.

The following tables are the parameter list composition for the MODE SELECT command.

DRM-7000 - 12 - 99/4/30

3.7. RESERVE ELEMENT(6)

The RESERVE and RELEASE commands provide the basic mechanism for contention resolution in multiple-initiatorsystems. The RESERVE command is used to reserve units or, if the element reservation option is implemented,elements within units for the use of the initiator.

Table 15 RESERVE commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code (16h)1 Reserved 3rdPty Third party device ID Element (0)2 Reservation identification3 (MSB)4 Element list length (LSB)5 Control Byte(00h)

Note that DRM-7000 does not support the element reserve option. If the element bit is one, the RESERVE command isterminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key is set to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-24-00). The elementbit must be set to zero.

3.8. RELEASE ELEMENT(6)

The RESERVE and RELEASE commands provide the basic mechanism for contention resolution in multiple-initiatorsystems. The RELEASE command is used to release previously reserved units, or, if the element release option isimplemented, previously reserved elements within units. A reservation may only be released by the initiator that made it.It is not an error for an initiator to attempt to release a reservation that is not currently valid, or is held by anotherinitiator. In this case, the target returns GOOD status without altering any other reservation.

Table 16 RELEASE commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code(17h)1 Reserved 3rdPty Third party device ID Element (0)2 Reservation identification3 Reserved4 Reserved5 Control Byte(00h)

DRM-7000 does not support the element release option. If the element bit is one, the RELEASE command is terminatedwith CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key is set to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-24-00). The element bit must beset to zero. The reservation identification field is ignored and this command causes the target to release all non-thirdparty unit that have reserved by the same initiator before.

The third-party release option of the RELEASE command allows an initiator to release a unit that was previouslyreserved using third-party reservation.

Since DRM-7000 support the third-party release option, if the 3rdPty bit is one, the target releases the specified unit, butonly if the reservation was made using the third-party reservation option by the initiator that is requesting the release forthe same SCSI device as specified in the third-party device ID field.

If an initiator attempts to release the third-party reservation that is made by itself but specifies incorrect third-partydevice ID, it does not cause an error. In this case, the target returns GOOD status without altering any other reservation.


DRM-7000 - 13 - 99/4/30

3.9. MODE SENSE(6)

The MODE SENSE(6) command provides a means for a medium changer device to report parameters to a HOST. It is acomplementary command to the MODE SELECT(6) command.

Table 17 MODE SENSE(6) commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code (1Ah)1 Reserved DBD Reserved2 Page Control Page Code3 Reserved4 Allocation Length5 Control Byte (00h)

As this model is a medium changer device, it has no meaningful information in a block descriptor. A DBD bit shall beset to one. Even if a disable block descriptors (DBD) bit is set to zero, DRM-7000 does not return any block descriptorsin the returned MODE SENSE data.

The Page Control (PC) field defines the type of mode parameter values to be returned in the mode pages. PC field onlyaffects the mode parameters within the mode pages. The mode parameter header and the block descriptor always returncurrent values.

Table 18 PAGE CONTROL FIELDCode Type of Parameter Descriptions00b Current values are the values established by last successful MODE SELECT command. If a MODE SELECT

command has not successfully completed since the last power-on, hard RESET condition, thedefault values become the current values. The exception is for the initialize required elementrange page. See “2.2. ELEMENT STATUS MAINTENANCE”.

01b Changeable values are the mask showing those mode parameters that are changeable. In the mask, the changeablefields of the mode parameters are set to all 1 bits and non-changeable fields of the modeparameters are set to all 0 bits. The HOST shall issue a MODE SENSE command with the PCfield set to 01b and the Page Code field set to 3Fh to determine which mode pages aresupported, which mode parameters within the mode pages are changeable, and the supportedlength of each mode page prior to issuing any MODE SELECT commands.

10b Default values are the values determined by the firmware.11b Saved values are not implemented for this model. The MODE SENSE command with PC field of 11b is

terminated with CHECK CONDITION status (5-39-00: Saving Parameters Not Supported).

Three device-type specific mode pages are defined in SMC. In this document, values and some descriptions is shownwith their page formats. See SMC if you need more information about those pages.

The Allocation Length field specifies the maximum number of bytes that a Host has allocated for returned data. Thedevice terminates the data transfer when allocation length bytes have been transferred or when all available data havebeen transferred to the Host, whichever is less. When data is truncated, no error is generated.

In general, the mode parameter list which is returned to a HOST consists of three parts; the mode parameter header, theblock descriptor and the mode page(s). The mode parameter header and the block descriptor are described in SPC.Those fields are not so useful for the medium changer device. The MEDIUM TYPE code field and the DEVICE–SPECIFIC PARAMETER field in the mode parameter header are reserved for medium changer devices. And the blockdescriptor length field in the mode parameter header is always zero even if the DBD bit in the CDB is set to zero.DRM-7000 does not return any block descriptors in the returned MODE SENSE data.

The mode page(s) part is the most important part. Mode pages are distinguished by Page Code. The parameters savable(PS) bit is always zero. It indicates that there is no savable parameters. The mode parameters for each page are definedin the following clauses. See “Mode Parameters”.

3.10. SEND DIAGNOSTIC

The SEND DIAGNOSTIC command requests the target to perform diagnostic operations on itself.

0 Operation Code(1Dh)1 Reserved SelfTest Reserved2 Reserved3 (MSB)4 Parameter List Length(0000h) (LSB)5 Control Byte(00h)

A self-test (SelfTest) bit of one directs the target to complete its default self-test. If the self-test successfully passes, thecommand is terminated with GOOD status; otherwise, the command is terminated with CHECK CONDITION statusand the sense key is set to HARDWARE ERROR.

A self-test bit of zero requests that the changer perform the diagnostic operation specified in the parameter list. ButDRM-7000 implements the self-test feature only. The self-test bit must be set to one with the parameter list length ofzero. DRM-7000 does not support a RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command.


DRM-7000 - 15 - 99/4/30

3.11. PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL

The PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL command is used to change the security level against the mediaaccess operation by the operator. This usage is vendor-specific. See the Programmer’s Guide for details.

Table 24 PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code(1Eh)1 Reserved2 Reserved3 Reserved4 Reserved Prevent5 Control Byte(00h)

In this context, the term “MEDIUM REMOVAL” means the operation to take out a medium from a changer bymanipulating the operation panel. The default status is “ALLOW”. If the HOST would like to control the changerexclusively, it should issue the PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL command with the Prevent bit is set to one.After receiving the command, “MEDIUM REMOVAL” operation is disabled. Operator could not use the mailslot andcould not open the doors until the PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL command with the Prevent bit is set tozero shall issue.

When DRM-7000 is in the System administrator mode, it returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets the sense key toNOT READY (2-04-80).

3.12. POSITION TO ELEMENT

The POSITION TO ELEMENT command requests that the medium transport element move to in front of the specifieddestination element.

Table 25 POSITION TO ELEMENT commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code(2Bh)1 Reserved2 (MSB)3 Transport element address (LSB)4 (MSB)5 Destination address (LSB)6 Reserved7 Reserved8 Reserved Invert (0)9 Control Byte(00h)

The POSITION TO ELEMENT command that is executed prior to issuing the MOVE MEDIUM command may reducethe time to access the specified source element address. But that is not a big deal. This usage is not recommended.

Another usage of this command is to open the mailslot. When the destination element address is an import exportelement and an access to the mailslot is not prohibited, the medium transport element moves to in front of the mailslotand open it. This function enables an import operation of a disc. The destination element address of the mailslot is3000h.An invert bit of this command must be set to zero, otherwise DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION statusand sets the sense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-24-00).

When the Hyper I/E function is activated in advance, the destination element address 3001h is acceptable for the hypermagazine. The POSITION TO ELEMENT command ejects the hyper magazine as well as the mailslot in this case. Butif some discs from hyper magazine are using on the drives, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status and setsthe sense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-3B-11). If the Hyper I/E function is prohibited , it returns CHECKCONDITION status and sets the sense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-21-00). And when a hyper magazine isremoved, it returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets the sense key to NOT READY (2-04-03).

3.13. READ BUFFER Command

The READ BUFFER command is used in conjunction with the WRITE BUFFER command as a diagnostic for testingtarget memory and the SCSI bus integrity. The function of this command and the meaning of fields within the commanddescriptor block depend on the contents of the mode field.

3.15. MOVE MEDIUM

The MOVE MEDIUM command requests that the transport mechanism of a changer move a unit of media from asource element to a destination element. The source address specifies the location that the medium is taken from, andthe destination address specifies the location that the medium is moved to. This is a principal command for a mediumchanger device.

Table 37 MOVE MEDIUM commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code (A5h)1 Reserved2 (MSB)3 Transport element address (LSB)4 (MSB)5 Source address (LSB)6 (MSB)7 Destination address (LSB)8 Reserved9 Reserved10 Reserved Invert11 Control Byte(00h)

The transport element address specifies the medium transport element that is to be used in executing this command.Medium transport element address of DRM-7000 is 2000h but the default medium transport element address of zerowill be acceptable.

The source address and the destination address may represent a storage element, an import export element, or a datatransfer element. The device capabilities MODE SENSE page provides a matrix with the supported source element ordestination element combinations for the MOVE MEDIUM command. If the address specified has not been assigned toa specific element of the medium changer or the combination of addresses specified is not supported, DRM-7000returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets the sense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-21-00).

If the source element is empty or the destination element is full, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status andsets the sense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-3B-0E or 5-3B-0D). When the source element specified is uncertain (hasnot been probed), DRM-7000 accepts the MOVE MEDIUM command and requests that the robotics move to thespecified element address. If the element has no medium, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets thesense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-3B-0E) at that time.

On the other hand, if the destination element specified is uncertain, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION statusand sets the sense key to NOT READY (2-04-02) without any move. When the source or destination element is missing,DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets the sense key to NOT READY (2-04-03). These NOTREADYs suggest the initialization of the element status is not enough or the element status has changed. It isrecommended to get the current element status by using the MODE SENSE and/or the READ ELEMENT STATUScommands.

If the destination address is an import export element and medium removal is prohibited by the PREVENT ALLOWMEDIUM REMOVAL command, DRM-7000 returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets the sense key to NOTREADY (2-53-86). When the mailslot that is specified as the source element or destination element is open, DRM-7000returns CHECK CONDITION status and sets the sense key to NOT READY (2-53-88).

An invert bit of one specifies that the medium will be inverted prior to depositing the medium into the destinationelement. DRM-7000 equips an optional medium rotation unit (Flip-Box). If it does not support medium rotation forhandling double-sided media, the invert bit must be set to zero. Otherwise it returns CHECK CONDITION status andsets the sense key to ILLEGAL REQUEST (5-24-00). It is recommended to get correct information by the MODESENSE command. The Rotate bit of the Transport Geometry Parameters Page indicates it.


DRM-7000 - 21 - 99/4/30

3.16. READ ELEMENT STATUS

The READ ELEMENT STATUS command requests that the medium changer report the status of its internal elementsto the HOST. This is one of the most useful and essential commands for a medium changer device.

Table 38 READ ELEMENT STATUS commandByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 Operation Code(B8h)1 Reserved VolTag(0) Element type code2 (MSB)3 Starting element address (LSB)4 (MSB)5 Number of elements (LSB)6 Reserved CURDATA DVCID7 (MSB)8 Allocation length9 (LSB)10 Reserved11 Control Byte(00h)

A volume tag (VolTag) bit must be set to zero because DRM-7000 does not support the volume tag information feature.

The element type code field specifies the particular element type(s) selected for reporting by this command. A value ofzero specifies that status for all element types shall be reported. The element type codes are defined in the next table.

Table 39 Element type codeCode Description

0h all element types reported1h medium transport element2h storage element3h import export element4h data transfer element

The starting element address specifies the minimum element address to report. Only elements with an element typecode permitted by the element type code specification, and an element address greater than or equal to the startingelement address are reported. Element descriptor blocks are not generated for undefined element addresses.

The number of elements specifies the maximum number of element descriptors to be created by the changer for thiscommand. The value specified by this field is not the range of element addresses to be considered for reporting butrather the number of defined elements to report.

The allocation length field specifies the maximum number of bytes that the HOST has allocated for returned data. If theallocation length is not sufficient to transfer all the element descriptors, the target transfers all those descriptors that canbe completely transferred and this is not considered an error.

DRM-7000 does not implement the CURDATA function. The current data (CURDATA) bit is one, the changer returnselement status data without causing device motion but even if the CURDATA bit is zero, the changer does not causedevice motion to confirm element status data. The location of the CURDATA bit is reserved in SCSI-2.

A device ID (DVCID) bit of one specifies that the changer shall return device identifiers, if available, for the specifiedrange. A DVCID bit of zero specifies that the changer shall not return device identifiers. DRM-7000 supports the deviceID feature for some element types but if the device ID feature is not supported for the specified element type, theDVCID bit is treated as reserved and not considered an error. The device ID returned from the data transfer element isessential information for the AUTO CONFIGURATION feature.


DRM-7000 - 22 - 99/4/30

3.16.1. Element status data format

Element status data consists of an eight-byte header, followed by one or more element status pages.

Table 40 Element status dataByte bit7 bit6 bit5 bit4 bit3 bit2 bit1 bit0

0 (MSB)1 First element address reported (LSB)2 (MSB)3 Number of elements available (LSB)4 Reserved5 (MSB)6 Byte count of report available7 (all pages, n-7) (LSB)

8 (MSB)Element status page(s)

n (LSB)

The first element address reported field indicates the element address of the element with the smallest element addressfound to meet the command descriptor block (CDB) request.

The number of elements available field indicates the number of elements meeting the request in the CDB. The status forthese elements is returned if sufficient allocation length was specified.

The byte count of report available field indicates the number of bytes of element status page data available for allelements meeting the request in the command descriptor block. This value is not adjusted to match the allocation lengthavailable. Taking advantage of this feature, the READ ELEMENT STATUS command can be issued with an allocationlength of eight bytes in order to determine the allocation length required to transfer all the element status data specifiedby the command.

3.16.2. Element status page format

Each element status page includes an eight-byte header followed by one or more element descriptor blocks. The headerincludes the element type code, the length of each descriptor block and the number of bytes of element descriptorinformation that follow the header for this element type.

8 (MSB)Element descriptor(s)

n (LSB)

The element type code field indicates the element type reported by this page.

A primary volume tag (PVolTag) bit and an alternate volume tag (AVolTag) bit must be set to zero because DRM-7000does not support neither volume tag functions. There are two sets of optional fields that contain volume tag informationin the read element status descriptor format for all element types. But these optional fields are always omitted.

The element descriptor length field indicates the number of bytes in each element descriptor.


DRM-7000 - 23 - 99/4/30

The byte count of descriptor data available field indicates the number of bytes of element descriptor data available forelements of this element type meeting the request in the CDB. This value is not adjusted to match the allocation lengthavailable.

Each element descriptor includes the element address and status flags; it may also contain sense code information aswell as other information depending on the element type.

Although the ANSI version field indicates that DRM-7000 is a SCSI-3 device, every bits newly defined are all zero.Only a removable medium bit (RMB) is set to one and indicates that the medium is removable.

Bytes 8 through 46 are ASCII data fields. Each field is left aligned and unused bytes are filled with spacecharacters(20h). 8 bytes of ASCII data, “PIONEER ”, is our Vendor Identification code. To identify the model, itreturns 16 bytes of ASCII data that contains device type and model name. As this model is a sample, model name isalso tentative. It returns “CHANGR DRM-7000 ”. The Product Revision Level field contains 4 bytes of ASCII dataidentifying the control firmware within the model. As this model keeps its firmware in a flash-ROM, each timefirmware is updated this field would be changed. The basic format is “#.##”(# is numeral).

Byte 36 through 46 are vendor specific fields. The Version Management Character field is used to indicate the status ofthe firmware. Usually, a small letter alphabet fills this field during the development period and space code(20h) willreplace there when it is released. Therefore, application software and device driver should be better to treat this field asthe 5th byte of the Product Revision Level field. The Product Revised Date field contains 10 bytes of ASCII dataidentifying the date of the firmware is revised. The basic format is “YYYY/MM/DD”, 4 byte for year, 2 bytes formonth and 2 bytes for day.

The Identifier type field specifies the format and assignment authority for the identifier. The value of Identifier type is1h and it indicates that the first 8 bytes of the identifier field are a vendor-ID. For DRM-7000, PIONEER is responsiblefor ensuring that the remainder of the identifier field is unique. Note that the uniqueness of an identifier is not broughtby a serial number only. Each PIONEER’s product has its Product-ID. PIONEER ensures an uniqueness of serialnumber within the same Product-ID products.

4.4.4. Initialize Required Elements Range Page

This mode page is a newly defined and vendor-specific page. It is an extension of the initialize element range page thathas been supported by the former model DRM-5004/1004 series. Starting and ending element addresses given by theinitialize element range page that is used with the MODE SELECT command eliminates the extent of elements whichshall be checked by the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command. The former initialize element range page canspecify only one extent of elements but newly developed initialize required elements range page supports multipleextents of elements.

The former initialize element range page with the MODE SENSE command was to be used only to monitor the resultof the MODE SELECT command for that page. It was a passive data and did not represent the real status of the storageelements at all. In other words, this page was designed for using with the MODE SELECT command at that time.

On the other hand, newly developed initialize required element range (IRER) page is designed for using both MODESENSE and MODE SELECT commands. The meaning of this page with the MODE SELECT command is essentiallysame as the former initialize element range page. But the meaning of this page with the MODE SENSE commandbecomes much more active one.

The data that DRM-7000 returns for the IRER page code with the MODE SENSE command will represent the currentstatus of the storage elements within the changer unit. It does not directly reflect the result of the MODE SELECTcommand for that page but reflects the result of the INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command.

The IRER page with the MODE SELECT command specifies the extents of elements which shall be probed by theINITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS command. If the IRER page with the MODE SELECT or MODE SENSEcommands has not successfully completed since the last power-on or hard reset condition, the default values of thestarting element address is 0001h and the ending element address is 0302h. Then the execution of the INITIALIZEELEMENT STATUS command will take a lot of time because the disc picker mechanism will probe every storageelements in the medium changer.

Using the IRER page with the MODE SENSE and the MODE SELECT commands appropriately will minimize thetime losses to probe storage elements in the medium changer. The HOST should issue a MODE SENSE command torecognize the current status of the storage elements if some UNIT ATTENTION CONDITION is sensed. See “2.2.ELEMENT STATUS MAINTENANCE” in this document.

Add-oncomponents like drives, disc flip unit and 50-disc magazinesmay be installed in various combinations. If all rear bays maybe used for drives, 16 drives are available. And the spacesfor two drives are replaceable with one 50-disc magazine ora disc flip unit. If you will install only two drives to maximizethe amount of data storage available, it is possible to installas many as 720-discs. Conversely if you will install 16 drivesto maximize the performance of the DRM-7000, the amountof data storage is 370-discs. It is also possible to leave thebays unfilled and to add drives or magazines as needed.

THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DISC

MAGAZINES EQUIPPED WITH INTERNAL

MEMORYPioneer provides three different types of disc magazinesdesigned for convenience and ease of use in differentapplications.20-disc hyper magazine:

The main feature of the hyper magazine is its mobility. Itcan be inserted and removed without opening the accessdoor. Another feature is a smart memory system thatrecords all user operations toward its lock/unlockmechanism. One hyper magazine is provided as a standardequipment with each Pioneer DRM-7000.

50-disc magazine (locked-type):

This model is perfect for managing offline media wherethe security and unchangeableness may be required. Built-in locking mechanism makes it impossible to remove discsfrom magazine whenever it is outside the changer.

50-disc magazine (normal-type):

This model is convenient for importing or exporting largevolumes of discs into or from the changer. You can insertdiscs into or remove them from a magazine releasing thelocking mechanism by a knob fitted with this magazinewhen it is outside the changer.

EASE OF INSTALLATIONIn order to connect the changer to an existing datamanagement system or to build a new data managementsystem, it is necessary for the host computer to be able toproperly identify the changer and all the drives containedtherein and it is necessary to attach all the cables and specifythe settings needed for the host computer to control thechanger and drives.

The Pioneer DRM-7000 is designed not only to make it easyto install and add new drives, but also with a wide range offeatures designed to make it easier to specify host computersettings.

SECURITY FEATURES DESIGNED TO

PREVENT ERRONEOUS OR

UNAUTHORIZED OPERATIONSIn order to prevent interference, conflicts, or clashes occurringbetween manual operations and computer-based operations,entering procedure to the system administrator mode isintroduced. Anyone who wants to perform operations fromthe control panel is required to enter system administratormode first, using the provided lock release key. And it ispossible to prevent the switchover to some sub-modes byissuing a command from the host computer.It is also possible to assign security privileges on the systemadministrator who has the lock release key. Then operationsdirectly manipulating discs, like opening mailslot and ejectinghyper magazine, are permitted to only the systemadministrator.

CONTROL PANEL FITTED WITH AN LCD

MESSAGE WINDOW FOR EASE OF USEThe control panel is fitted with a 2-line, 16-column LCDmessage window which is used to display instructions onthe proper operations to perform. And this makes it possibleto perform any of the wide variety of different operationsprovided by the DRM-7000 with only 5 keys.

DESIGNED FOR MAXIMUM

EXPANDABILITY AND IMPROVEMENTPioneer also plans to release a disc turning unit for use withdouble-sided DVDs, a network interface unit, a video decoderunit, a DVD-R drive unit, and a wide variety of other optionalcomponents in the near future. And the DRM-7000 has beendesigned so that all of these new components will be able tobe easily installed and recognized by the system.

ADVANCED HIGH-SPEED, HIGH-

RELIABILITY DISC TRANSPORT

MECHANISMThe Pioneer DRM-7000 adopts an advanced disc transportingmechanism which has established an excellent record foritself in providing both high speeds and a high degree ofreliability in the DRM-1004 series, and provides even betterperformance to it.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

FOR SAFETY÷ Do not install the unit on any unsteady platform or desk,

etc., as the unit is tall and heavy.÷ Do not stack the units or do not place a heavy object on

the unit. It is extremely dangerous to do this, because theobjects may fall off or the unit may topple over.

÷ Attach the placement fixtures first after unpacking the

changer. If it is moved before they are attached, there

is a danger of it toppling over or of the cables on the

rear being damaged.

÷ Always be sure not to insert your hand into the 20-

disc hyper magazine bay or not to touch any parts

inside of the bay when the power has been turned on,

otherwise it may result in bodily injury.

÷ The Changer can accommodate only the discs with adiameter of 12cm (5in). As the Changer detects thepresence of disc with optical detection of the position atabout 5mm (3/16in) inside the external periphery of the12cm (5in) disc, the use of a disc which is transparent atthe corresponding position or a 8cm (3in) disc may lead todisc detection error and to the disc damage in the worstcase. Also, the use of a 8cm disc adapter is strictlyprohibited.

÷ For safety reasons, the DRM-7000 is designed so that theaccess doors cannot be opened while the changermechanism or internal drives are in operation.

÷ The high speed rotation of discs or the operation of thehigh speed disc transport mechanism in the DRM-7000causes slight vibrations and noise, but this does not indicatea problem. And it does not effect the performance of thechanger.

CONDENSATIONIf the temperature difference between the changer andenvironment is too large, water will condense in the changerand the system may not provide proper performance. Forexample, if you bring the changer into a warm room fromoutside in cold weather, or if you increase room temperatureabruptly, condensation may result. If condensation occurs,leave the changer for one hour in the room, or increase roomtemperature gradually before using it.

CLEANING THE CHANGERTo clean the panel and the cover, use a soft, dry cloth to wipeoff dust and dirt. If the cabinet is heavily soiled, wipe off thedirt using a soft cloth soaked with neutral detergent diluted 5to 6 times. Then wipe the water off with a dry cloth. Do notuse benzine, thinner, insecticide or similar volatile chemicals,as they may dissolve or discolor the cabinet surface. If youuse a chemical polishing cloth, carefully read the instructionssupplied with it.

INSTALLATIONSelect an installation site with a flat, solid surface.Do not install the system where it will suffer any of thefollowing:1 Exposure to direct sunlight or a heater2 High humidity or dust3 Proximity to bathroom or kitchen4 Exposure to spotlight5 Proximity to any large electric apparatus such as a

refrigerator, air conditioner, dimmer, etc.6 Uneven or unsteady installation surface.

(If the surface is not flat, first put down a hard plate orsimilar support so that the system is installed level.)

7 Difficulty of service and maintenance.

If the changer is to be installed next to a wall, a minimum ofat least 50 cm of space must be provided between the backof the changer and the wall.Avoid placing objects directly on the changer.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS÷ Be careful not to stain, scratch or leave fingerprint, etc.,

on the signal surface, or recording surface of the discs.The specified playback performance or recordingperformance may not be obtained with such discs.

÷ Do not insert more than one disc in a mailslot, otherwisemalfunction will result.

÷ The Changer does not manage the disc contents. The datashould be managed by involving the host.

÷ The recording disc used with the CD-R drive should bethe disc recommended by PIONEER. The specifiedrecording performance or playback performance may notbe obtained if a non-recommended disc is used. Pleasenote that the data recorded on discs is not covered by ourwarranty.

÷ Please be careful not to lose the lock release keys providedwith your DRM-7000, otherwise you could not manageyour changer any more. The lock release key certifies youas a system administrator and gives you a privilege to openaccess doors, to eject a hyper magazine and to use amailslot.

READ BEFORE USE

SECURITY FEATURES

Information on the location of discs within the changer andinformation to access data on discs are strictly monitoredand controlled from the changer control software and theupper-level database management software.Because of this, if any changes in the status of the discswithin the changer occur at a time when the changer is notunder the control of the host computer (or in a networkenvironment, under the control of a server), it becomesimpossible to control the changer and drives and to readnecessary files from discs.Allowing discs stored within the changer to be removedwithout any restrictions poses a security risk, not only in thatit would become impossible to access discs which have beenremoved but also in that it might lead to the damage or lossof discs.

Although the DRM-7000 has been designed so as to openthe front and rear access doors from the control panel (locatedat the top of the front of the unit) to remove magazines or toinsert or remove discs through the mailslots, anyone whoconsiders the security issues noted above will be able tounderstood that it is necessary to place restrictions on suchoperations.

This is why the control panel of the DRM-7000 has been fittedwith a key switch which may be locked to disable operationsof control keys. This switch cannot be unlocked without thekey provided with the DRM-7000, and if the systemadministrator will always keep this key, it is impossible thatordinary users without key perform unauthorized operationsfrom the control panel.

It is also possible to restrict the range of operations whichare performed from the control panel. It means that a part ofsystem administrator’s privileges is controlled by thecommand issued from the host computer and even if asystem administrator has the key, the host computer makesit impossible to open the access doors, exchange discs, orperform other unfavorable operations for itself.

OFFLINE MEDIA MANAGEMENT

The DRM-7000 provides the following features which makesit perfect for the management of offline media.

¶ Removable disc magazines

Disc magazines may be removed from the changer withthe discs left in the magazines. The use efficiency of thespace within the changer may much improve if theinfrequently used discs are collected in one magazine andit is taken out from the changer into the offline storage.

¶ Unique disc magazine IDs

All disc magazines used in the DRM-7000 are assignedunique ID codes which makes it possible to identifyindividual magazines simply by inserting them into themagazine bays.

All of the discs within an inserted magazine becomeavailable immediately no matter which magazine bay it isinserted into as long as the discs installed in the magazinehave been registered in the database as corresponding tothe magazine ID in question, and the same holds true whena magazine is inserted into a different changer as long asthe changer in which it is inserted is under the control ofthe same database.

¶ Disc magazines designed for easy tracking and control

Removing, inserting or replacing discs in magazines afterthey have been removed from a changer may destroy thecorrespondence between discs and magazine IDs.To solve this problem, Pioneer provides 50-disc magazinewhich has a locking mechanism to prevent all attempt tochange the status of the magazine outside the changerand hyper magazine which has a smart memory systemthat records all user operations toward its lock/unlockmechanism so as to make it easier to track and controlthe use of offline media.

¶ Registration of changer ID

When a disc magazine has been inserted into a changernot under the control of the database managementsoftware or into a changer belonging to another system,the discs within that magazine may be rewritten or maybe replaced with other discs within that changer. Even ifthe magazine in question is a locked-type, thesediscrepancies between the discs actually contained withinthe magazine and the information on those discs stored inthe database may be arise.In order to prevent such problems from occurring, discmagazines are designed to record the ID of the changer inwhich they are used, and as long as the database has alist of the IDs of changers controlled under the givendatabase, it is possible for the database managementsoftware to determine whether or not a inserted discmagazine has to be reinstalled by checking the changerID that may be read with the magazine ID.

However although the DRM-7000 changer and discmagazines do provide the features needed for themanagement of offline media, it should be noted that theactual procedures and methods available for the managementof offline media may differ depending on the databasemanagement software and changer control software beingused.It should further be noted that it is necessary to establishhow to employ controls for the handling of offline media. Infact if management controls are strict enough, it is evenpossible to use normal-type disc magazines which wouldordinarily be unsuited for use in the management of offlinemedia, in the same way as one would use locked-type discmagazines.

DECIDING ON SYSTEM

CONFIGURATION

Before installing or using the changer, the first thing whichhas to be done is to decide what components you shouldinstall to where of the changer.

The connector panel and SCSI cables which come with theDRM-7000 are prepared on the assumption of the followingsystem configuration:7 Two drives7 Both drives will be connected internally with multi drive

connector panel and the provided changer/drive SCSI cableis used to connect the drive SCSI ports to the changerSCSI ports

(Note that it is also necessary to purchase another SCSI cableto connect the changer to the host computer when the DRM-7000 is to be used in the above configuration.)

If you wish to install three or more drives or to use more thanone SCSI bus to increase data transfer speeds, it will benecessary to purchase additional connector panels and SCSIcables.To determine what additional equipment must be purchasedin order to create a desired configuration, it is recommendedthat you first decide where drives are to be installed andconsult the configuration sheet on p. 169 before actually tryingto configure your system.

Before actually beginning to configure your changer system,it is absolutely necessary that the following items bedetermined:¶ The types and numbers of drives to be installed and where

they are to be installed. (Note that an additional powersupply unit will also be needed if you wish to install 9 ormore drives.)

¶ The positions where connector panels are to be attached.(Note that the DRM-7000 comes equipped with a multidrive connector panel and if you need single driveconnector panels you must purchase them.)

¶ The SCSI IDs to be assigned to each of the drives to beinstalled. (Note that it is impossible to assign the sameSCSI ID to two or more drives on the same SCSI bus.)

¶ The connecting plan of the cables running betweenindividual drives and connector panels.

¶ Which drives are to be terminated (i.e., the drive’stermination switch of the terminal drive in each SCSI chainis to be turned on).

An example of how SCSI cables should be connected isshown on p. 17.

At the time of factory shipping, the DRM-7000 is equippedwith a power supply which provides only enough powerfor up to 8 additional devices which may be installed inthe lower rear bays (i.e., Bay #1 – Bay #8).The maximum amount of power which may be suppliedto these eight rear bays is DC +5V/12A and DC +12V/8A,and the total power consumption of devices installed

ADD-ON PRODUCTS

The following components may be purchased separately foruse with the Pioneer DRM-7000 in order to adapt it for use inconfiguring a system to your own specifications.

50-disc magazine

Used to store discs within the changer, these magazinescome in both normal and locked types which can be installedin whatever combination best fits your needs.

¶ 50-disc magazine (locked-type)

[DRM-AL751]

These disc magazines are designed so that the lock is notreleased even when a magazine is removed from achanger. Therefore the mailslot is necessary to insert discsinto these magazines or remove discs from them. Thesemagazines are extremely effective for use in situationswhere they are used in combination with a host computerwhich supports offline media management. (See p. 7 forfurther details.)

should not exceed this level.Also note that the maximum amount of power which maybe supplied over a single connector is DC +5V/4A and DC+12V/4A.An additional power supply unit may also be installed tomake it possible to install up to 8 devices in the upper rearbays (i.e., Bay #9 – Bay #16) as well. The maximum powerconsumption of these upper bays and the maximumamount of power which may be supplied over a singleconnector is the same as that of the lower bays (i.e., Bay#1 – Bay #8).

NOTE:

¶ Be sure never to use any add-on products other thanPioneer products.

¶ When turning off the power and turning it back on,always be sure to allow an interval of 10 seconds ormore to elapse after turning off the power before turningit back on. Note that this must be done because thereare times when the power is not switched offimmediately even after the power switched has beenflipped off when few drives have been installed in thechanger.

STEP 2

Readying the changer for operation

In order to ready the changer for operation, perform thefollowing steps in the order indicated.

1. Turning on the power (see p. 15)2. Loosening the shipping screws (see p. 15)3. Installing drive units (see p. 15)4. Connecting SCSI cables (see p. 16)5. Inserting disc magazines (see p. 18)6. Closing access doors (see p. 21)

1. Turning on the power

When the power is first turned on, both the front and rearaccess doors will automatically open. This is not a faultyoperation but the function of the shipping screws tightenedat the time of shipping or re-transporting.

NOTES:

¶ Be sure not to close neither the front nor rear access dooruntil all drives and disc magazines have been installed.

¶ If the access doors could not open automatically, you mustopen them by some manual operation using the systemadministrator mode to continue with installation. See Doorsubmode on p.35 for further information.

2. Loosening the shipping screws

When the front access door is opened, shipping screws maybe seen at near the bottom inside the changer. These screwsare attached to prevent damage to the built-in mechanism ofthe changer during transporting.Shipping screws are designed so that they can only beloosened and cannot be removed so as to prevent theirbecoming lost.

NOTES:

¶ Be sure to tighten again the shipping screws before re-transporting the changer.

¶ If you or someone close the front or the rear access doorwith the shipping screws loosened, the closed door cannot open automatically like before. And when the bothdoors are closed, the changer starts its mechanicalinitialization. So if you have not finished the installationyet, it is necessary to open the access doors again tocontinue with installation. (See System administratormode: Door submodes on p. 35 for further information.)

3. Installing drive units

No tools are required for attaching drive units. Note that whiledrives may be installed in any of the rear bays from #1 – #8,the location of the connector panel that has been attached atthe time of shipment had been designed for drives to beinstalled in bays #1 and #2.

1. Attaching add-on connector panels, if necessary

2. Attaching drive units

Before installation, be sure to specify the following settingsat the rear of each drive to be installed. (See the operatinginstructions provided with drive for details.)¶ SCSI ID assignment

Specify the SCSI IDs to be used so as to ensure that thesame SCSI ID is not assigned by more than one drive onthe same SCSI bus.

¶ TerminationSet the termination switch of the last drive in the SCSIchain to the ON position.

1 When inserting a drive, be sure to place the drive on thechanger guide rails and push the drive in until the locklever on the drive shifts to the locked position. Maybe youcan hear a clicking sound then.

2 Connect the power cable.¶ When the power cable has been connected, the wiring

monitor indicator on the rear of the drive (orange) willlight up.

¶ When the termination switch of the drive is set to on,the termination indicator (green) will light up.

3 Connect the changer interface cable.¶ When the changer interface cable has been connected,

the wiring monitor indicators will flash at two-secondintervals.

NOTE:

Connect the changer interface cable to the connectorcorresponding to the bay in which the drives have beeninstalled. (Note that labels are affixed to connectors indicatingthe corresponding bay number.) Note that it is extremelyimportant to do this, as connecting the changer interface cableto a neighboring bay will result in damage to discs and thedisc transport mechanism.

3. Reading and self-checking the installed drive’s SCSI

ID by the changer

¶ If all drives have been assigned different SCSI IDs, abuzzer will sound once.

¶ If the same SCSI ID has been assigned to two or moredrives, a buzzer will sound three times.

NOTES:

¶ If installed drives are to be connected to different SCSIbuses, then the same SCSI ID assigned to each of thedrives may be all right.

¶ Even if none of the drives installed within a changer hasbeen assigned the same SCSI ID, it is necessary to checkthat the same SCSI ID is not assigned to other devices(e.g., hard disks) on the same SCSI bus.

4. Connecting SCSI cables

After installing all drives and checking to make sure that theyhave been properly connected, install the SCSI interfacecables.

NOTES:

¶ The total length of cables used in a SCSI bus must be lessthan 6 meters, including the internal daisy-chain cables,changer/drive cable and changer/host cable. (See“Examples of how to connect SCSI cables” on page 17.)

¶ When installing 7 or more drives or when creating multiSCSI buses system for 6 drives or less, additional multidrive connector panels or single drive connector panelswill be required.

¶ When connecting the changer to a host computer, alwaysbe sure to first turn off the power to both the changer andthe host computer. After the connections are finished, turnon the power to the changer before turning the power tothe host computer back on.

¶ The changer SCSI termination switch is set to ON at thetime of shipment. Always make sure that the changer SCSItermination switch is set to OFF when the changer is notthe last device in the SCSI chain.

¶ Note that the DRM-7000 is unable to recognize theexistence of faulty SCSI cable connections or mistakes inthe assignment of SCSI IDs, and for this reason you shouldalways be sure to restart the host computer afterinstallation to make sure that all drive units and the changerare properly recognized. This is the only way of confirmingthat all SCSI devices are installed properly.

5. Inserting disc magazines

Any of the following methods may be used to insert discsinto the changer:1. Insert discs into a normal-type 50-disc magazine and then

insert the magazine into the changer.2. Insert discs into a 20-disc hyper magazine and then insert

the magazine into the changer.3. Use the control panel to specify the slot into which a disc

is to be inserted and transport a disc to the specified slotfrom the mailslot.

4. Issue some commands from the host computer to openthe mailslot and transport a disc to the specified slot fromthe mailslot.

5. Issue some commands from the host computer to movediscs in the loaded hyper magazine to some slots withinthe loaded 50-disc magazines.

¶ Hyper magazine is not able to be inserted or removed whenthe power to the changer is turned off.

¶ Methods 3 through 5 may be used after the changer isready for operation. When inserting discs in thesemethods, always be sure to insert empty disc magazinesfirst.Also note that methods 3 through 5 are used wheninserting locked-type 50-disc magazines. (See Systemadministrator mode: Mailslot submode on p. 32 for furtherinformation.)

¶ Whether or not it is possible to use methods 4 and 5depends on the function of changer control software beingused, and you should check the manual which comes withthe software to check if it supports these methods to insertdiscs.

1. Insert discs into a normal-type 50-disc magazine and

insert the magazine into the changer.

1 Turn the release knob to the vertical direction to unlock.2 Insert discs.3 Turn the release knob to the horizontal direction to lock

the discs into place.

NOTES:

¶ Insert with label facing upward.¶ Insert discs horizontally. Otherwise it may result in

damage to the discs.¶ Take care not to scratch or do other damage to the

recording faces of discs.¶ Do not turn a disc magazine upside down while the

lock is disengaged. Otherwise it may result in discsfalling out of the magazine.

4 Insert magazine into changer.Holding the handle of the disc magazine, insert the discmagazine into the changer following the changer guiderails until it runs against the stopper.And turn the handle to the left with pushing the magazinein so that the lock pin on the left of the magazine slidesinto the corresponding hole along the side of the changer.

Shown above is the insertion to the front magazine bay.Though the insertion to the rear magazine bay is almostsame but note that the proper installation position is in theplace where it is very secluded.To remove a disc magazine from the changer, pull thehandle towards you and pull the magazine from thechanger.

6. Closing access doors

First check to make sure that all components have beeninstalled into place and all cables have been connected.If this has been done, close the front and the rear accessdoors, then the initialization of the changer mechanism willbegin.

When initialization has been completed, a message like thatshown below will be displayed on the LCD message window.

The first line of this message is used to indicate the status ofthe disc changer mechanism, and the second line is used toindicate the installed drive number and to indicate whetheror not a disc has been loaded into the drive in question.Drive numbers are assigned in sequence from the lowermostto the uppermost drive.

NOTE:

If the maximum number of drives appears on the LCDmessage window is shorter than the number of drivesinstalled, open the rear access door and check the powercables and the changer interface cables to all drives installed.(See System administrator mode: Door submodes on p. 35for information on how to open the rear access door.)

The Pioneer DRM-7000 has two operation modes. One isuser mode performing the computer-based operations andthe other is system administrator mode mainly performingmanual operations from the control panel. By dividing theadmitted operations into these two modes, it becomespossible to prevent interference, conflicts, or clashesoccurring between operations performed from the controlpanel and commands issued by the host computer.

USER MODE

Once a changer has been finished its power on initializationor closing doors after installation, it will enter user mode andit will become able to be controlled by the changer controlsoftware and database management software running on thehost computer. When a changer is running normally in usermode, the LCD message window will display a series of thefollowing status messages in one-second intervals.

≠

≠

≠••

When operating in user mode, the changer will operate inaccordance with commands issued by the host computer.

SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR MODE

The privilege to perform operations from the control panel isgiven to the system administrator who keeps lock releasekeys. Note that the following steps must be performed inorder to switch to system administrator mode.

1. Insert lock release key into the key switch located on thecontrol panel and rotate 90 degrees to shift the switch toUNLOCK position.

OPERATION

2. Press the FUNCTION key.

When the changer enters system administrator mode, amessage like that shown below will be displayed on the LCDmessage window:

System administrator mode is further divided into 8 differentsubmodes.

Information submodes

These submodes enable the system administrator to read achanger’s current settings or read data stored within achanger. Note that these submodes do not affect theoperations performed by the host computer and the systemadministrator can obtain a variety of information withoutinterfering with the control of the changer from the hostcomputer.

¶ Inquiry submode (see p. 24)¶ Config submode (see p. 24)¶ Option submode (see p. 26)¶ Info submode (see p. 30)

Maintenance submodes

These submodes are used to maintain discs and their statuswithin the changer. Sometimes these submodes may usethe disc transport mechanism. Therefore whenever thechanger enter any one of these submodes, some commandsissued by the host computer may be ignored.

Option submode

Some changer functions may be selected at user request. Inorder to allow system administrators to make the most ofthe features provided by changer control software anddatabase management software, optional functions may beselected as needed. Note that requirements concerningsecurity levels or operations performed at the time of errorsmay also change depending on the location in which thechanger has been installed, and that options should beselected accordingly.

Option submode may be used to specify the following optionalfunctions.

1. Auto probing (Set OFF at the time of shipment)2. Hot start (Set OFF at the time of shipment)3. Auto eject (Set ON at the time of shipment)4. Hyper I/E (Set ON at the time of shipment)5. Alert buzzer (Set ON at the time of shipment)6. Free message (Set OFF at the time of shipment)

1. Auto probing

It is possible that discs have been inserted into normal-type50-disc magazines and hyper magazines before thesemagazines are inserted into the changer. But it does not meanthat these imported discs are ready to use because thechanger and the host computer have not recognized yet whichslot holds a disc or not. Therefore the first thing to do isexamining which slot a disc is in, that is called probing.While this probing function is usually performed by thechanger control software running on the host computer, incases where users wish to perform this before connectingthe changer to the host computer or in cases where thechanger control software being used does not support suchprobing function, probe submode (see p. 34) may be usedinstead. Using probe submode, however, may beinconvenient since it requires that all of the disc magazinesto be checked be specified one by one.Auto probing may be used to have the changer automaticallycheck all disc magazines which need to be checked todetermine whether or not discs have been inserted.

2. Hot start

When discs have been transported to drives and the powerto the changer is turned off and then the power to the changeris turned back on, then the discs will be automatically returnedto their original slots. (Note that this automatic disc returnoperation is not performed after a SCSI bus reset.)For discs which are accessed frequently, however, it ispossible to use the hot start feature to make those discsaccessible immediately after power is turned on by leavingthe discs in the drives which had used them.Hot start function is an optional function and it enables toleave discs on the drives that had been using when the poweris turning on.




(Note that a “Hot start is prohibited” message will bedisplayed if hot start function is set to OFF.)

NOTE:

Hot start function cannot be used when the changer controlsoftware is designed so as to force discs to be returned totheir original slots.

3. Auto eject

In network environments there are often times whenchangers are installed near servers far from the locations inwhich user terminals are located.In environments such as these, when a user uses the changercontrol software to issue a command requesting a disc withina changer be removed through a mailslot, it is necessary forthe user to go to the location where the changer in questionhas been installed in order to remove the disc, but before theuser reaches the changer the mailslot in which the disc hasbeen transported may already have been opened.This may be convenient for some cases, however, unless asystem administrator resides near the changer it is as if therewere no security at all, and the same holds true of the ejectionof a hyper magazine.This is the reason why it has been made possible to turn OFFauto eject function. Placing restrictions on the automaticejection of mailslot tray and on the automatic ejection of ahyper magazine, makes it possible to maintain a certain levelof security.


Press the \ key to set to OFF≠


(Note that a “Auto eject is activated” message will bedisplayed if auto ejection function is set to ON.)

If auto eject function is set to OFF and a command is issuedfrom the host computer causing a disc to be carried to amailslot, the mailslot tray will not automatically open, andinstead a message like the following will be displayed on theLCD message window.

28<DRC1105>En

Operation

Similarly, the hyper magazine will not be automatically ejectedeven when an eject command is received from the hostcomputer, and instead like the following will be displayed onthe LCD message window.

To press the ENT key to cause the tray of the mailslot or thehyper magazine to be ejected, it is necessary for the keyswitch to be in UNLOCK position. Since the tray of the mailslotor the hyper magazine will not be ejected until a user with alock release key goes to the place where the changer inquestion is installed and switches the key switch to UNLOCKposition, security is ensured during the interval between thetime a command is issued and the time the user actuallyreaches the changer.

4. Hyper I/E

While a hyper magazine is designed to be used as a discmagazine capable of accommodating 20-discs at a time, sinceit is also allowed to be removed without opening access doorsa hyper magazine can also be used as a high-capacity mailslot.

The subsystems which make up SCSI changers may bedivided into the following four types of elements:

1. Media transport element (i.e., robotics)2. Storage elements (i.e., slots)3. Import/export element (i.e., mailslot)4. Data transfer elements (i.e., drives)

Although slots (which are provided by disc magazines) andmailslot are usually defined as different elements, by turningON hyper I/E function it becomes possible to control a hypermagazine in the same way as mailslot.




(Note that a “Hyper I/E is activated” message will bedisplayed if hyper I/E function is set to ON.)

NOTE:

Since hyper magazines retain their attributes as storageelements even when hyper I/E function is set to ON, thechanger control software may not treat a hyper magazine asan import/export element.However, hyper I/E function should always be set to OFFwhen the changer control software being used does notrecognize the use of multiple import/export elements or whenthere is a danger of erroneous operations being performed.

6. Free message

When discs are to be inserted or removed in accordance withinstructions from the host computer, messages will bedisplayed on the LCD message window indicating the nextoperation which must be performed.

For example, when a disc is to be inserted or removed froma mailslot (i.e., when auto eject function has been turnedOFF), the following message will be displayed.

While the messages displayed on the LCD message windowup until this point are the same whether a disc is beinginserted or removed, since all operations after the mailslothas been opened are performed in accordance withinstructions from the host computer, the changer LCDmessage window cannot display messages adequately.

By setting free message function ON, however, it becomespossible to have the messages displayed on the LCDmessage window overwritten by messages sent from thehost computer, and it becomes possible to display instructionsas the host computer wants to be done. It is also possible todisplay other information such as the name of the applicationcontrolling the changer, warning messages indicating that adisc is being written, and other information which the hostcomputer possesses.




(Note that an “Free message is prohibited” messagewill be displayed if free message function is set to OFF.)

Note that even if free message function is activated, if nomessages are received from the host computer, all messagesdisplayed on the LCD message window will consist ofmessages from the changer itself.

5. Alert buzzer

Control panel of the DRM-7000 is equipped with a buzzerwhich is designed to sound at designated times.

¶ When the rear access door is opened and a drive is beinginserted:Since it is difficult to monitor progress from the LCDmessage window while inserting a drive from the rearaccess door, the buzzer sounds to provide an indicationthat operation is proceeding without problem.

¶ When the keys on the control panel are disabled:The buzzer will sound while the FUNCTION key is beingpressed.

Note that the in these cases above the buzzer will soundto provide a message to the operator in response to his/her input, and for this reason these buzzer cannot be turnedoff.

¶ When a problem occurs with the changer:When a problem occurs with the changer, the buzzer willcontinue to sound until the operator presses one of thekeys on the control panel.

If in this case messages on the LCD message window orwarning messages on the screen of the host computerare sufficient, this alert buzzer may be turned OFF.




(Note that a “Alert buzzer is activated” message will bedisplayed if the alert buzzer is set to ON.)

When there are records of the lock having been unlocked,the message displayed will be as follows.

Note that the magazine will be automatically ejected if thechanger is unable to read the magazine ID, and that if thishappens you should try inserting the magazine again.

Probe submode

It is possible that discs have been inserted into normal-type50-disc magazines and hyper magazines before thesemagazines are inserted into the changer. But it does not meanthat these imported discs are ready to use because thechanger and the host computer have not recognized yet whichslot holds a disc or not.Probe submode is used to examine which slot a disc is in.While this probing function is usually performed by thechanger control software running on the host computer, incases where users wish to perform this before connectingthe changer to the host computer or in cases where thechanger control software being used does not support suchprobing function, probe submode may be used instead.

¶ If you press the ENT key at this point, the magazine baynumbers into which magazines have been loaded will bedisplayed in sequence.

How to add a drive

1. Enter system administrator mode and enter door

submode to open the rear access door.

The following message will be displayed on the LCDmessage window.

ADDING DRIVE UNITS

Any drive designed for use in the DRM-7000 changer caneasily be added as a new drive.Note that the power supply equipped with the DRM-7000 asstandard equipment provides only enough power for up to 8additional devices which may be installed in the lower rearbays (i.e., Bay #1 – Bay #8) and that an additional add-onpower unit must be installed to make it possible to installadditional drives in the upper rear bays (i.e., Bay #9 – Bay#16).

Warning about static electricity

Always be sure never to touch the contacts or ports ofany connectors when installing additional drives or anyother type of add-on equipment. Also be sure to touch ametallic surface on the changer before beginning theadding operations.

NOTES:

¶ When disconnecting drive cables that had been connectedbefore to make the work easier, always be sure todisconnect those cables in the following order (i.e., theopposite order from that in which they are connected):

1. SCSI interface cable2. Changer interface cable3. Power cable

¶ If you wish to add a drive to a SCSI bus where thetermination for an existing drive has been turned on, thetermination for the new drive to be added must be turnedon and the termination for the existing drive turned off.

3. Place the drive on the changer guide rails, push the

drive in until the lock lever on the drive shifts to the

locked position. Maybe you can hear a clicking sound

then.

2. Attach add-on connector panels, if necessary

5. Connect the changer interface cable.

¶ When the changer interface cable has been connected,the wiring monitor indicator will flash at two-secondintervals.

NOTE:

Connect the changer interface cable to the connectorcorresponding to the bay in which the drives have beeninstalled. (Note that labels are affixed to connectors indicatingthe corresponding bay number.) Note that it is extremelyimportant to do this, as connecting the changer interface cableto a neighboring bay will result in damage to discs and thedisc transport mechanism.

6. The changer will then read the drive’s SCSI ID and

compare the drive’s settings to those of existing drives.

¶ If all drives have been assigned different SCSI IDs, abuzzer will sound once.

¶ If the same SCSI ID has been assigned to two or moredrives, a buzzer will sound three times.

4. Connect the power cable.

If it is difficult to work, the SCSI interface cables of otherdrives should be disconnected before continuing.¶ When the power cable has been connected, the wiring

monitor indicator on the rear of the drive (orange) willlight up.


NOTES:

¶ If installed drives are to be connected to different SCSIbuses, then the same SCSI ID assigned to each of thedrives may be all right.

¶ Even if none of the drives installed within a changer hasbeen assigned the same SCSI ID, it is necessary to checkthat the same SCSI ID is not assigned to other devices(e.g., hard disks) on the same SCSI bus.

7. Connect the SCSI interface cable.

If you have disconnected the SCSI interface cables of anyother drives in Step 4, be sure to remember to reconnectthose cables.

8. Enter system administrator mode and enter config

submode (see p. 24) to check that the changer

recognizes all the internal drives.

For example, three DVD-ROM drives and one CD-R drivehave been added in the rear bays beginning from Bay #1in sequence, the following messages will be displayed.

4. Make sure the wiring monitor indicator (orange). It is

located on the back of the drive and ought to be

flashing at half-second intervals if the drive has been

selected in Step 3. Then disconnect the cables to the

drive.

Order in which cables are to be disconnected:1. SCSI interface cable2. Changer interface cable3. Power cable

5. Remove the drive.

If it is difficult to work, the SCSI interface cables of otherdrives should be disconnected before continuing.

6. Check the SCSI ID and termination switch settings of

the drive which has just been removed, and set the

SCSI ID and termination switch settings of the drive

which is to be inserted in its place to the same settings.

7. Insert the new drive and connect the power cable.

¶ When the power cable has been connected, the wiringmonitor indicator on the rear of the drive (orange) willlight up.


8. Connect the changer interface cable.

¶ When the changer interface cable has been connected,the wiring monitor indicator will begin flashing at half-second intervals.

9. Compare the SCSI ID and termination settings of the

newly installed drive against those of the removed

drive.

¶ If the SCSI ID of the new drive is the same as that ofthe drive which has just been removed, the buzzer willsound once.

¶ If the SCSI ID of the new drive is not the same as thatof the drive which has just been removed, the buzzerwill sound three times.

10. Connect the SCSI interface cable.

If you have disconnected the SCSI interface cables of anyother drives in Step 5, be sure to remember to reconnectthose cables.

11. Check the drive device ID displayed on the LCD

message window.


NOTES:

¶ If the SCSI ID and termination switch settings displayeddiffer from those which set on the back of the drive, or if adrive’s device ID fails to be displayed, it is likely that thecorresponding cables were improperly connected. If thishappens, follow the steps outlined below to properlyreconnect all the cables.Order in which cables are to be disconnected:
