(Use step d of the following procedure. ) · You are installing the EZFlyer drive as the slave device on an EIDE cable.

Note the orientation of the striped or colored edge (pin 1) of the cable relative to the 40-pin connector on the EIDE controller. Observe that one half of the ribbon cable has two 40-pin connectors, while the other half has only one 40-pin connector (at its end). Attach the end of the new cable that has one 40-pin connector to the appropriate EIDE or IDE controller port. Be sure to attach the striped edge of the ribbon cable to pin 1 of the 40-pin connector of the EIDE or IDE controller. Check that the orientation matches the orientation you noted in step a. If you are still unsure of the correct orientation, see Figure 2-14 on page 2-22. Locate the master device attached to the other end of the existing cable. Observe the orientation of the striped edge (pin 1) of the cable relative to the 40-pin connector on the master EIDE device. Connect either of the two available 40-pin connectors on the new cable to the master EIDE device. Be sure to attach the striped edge (pin 1) of the cable to pin 1 of the EIDE device. You must first set jumpers on the EIDE devices and properly mount the EZFlyer drive. Installation Guide for PC Compatible Systems 2-15 Set Jumpers on EIDE Devices You may need to reset the Master/Slave jumper on the EZFlyer EIDE drive, and also the jumpers on your existing EIDE devices. Jumpers are commonly used by manufacturers to control hardware settings: · A jumper is set to On position when it connects two jumper pins in different rows. · A jumper is set to Off position when it does not connect two jumper pins (that is, when it is attached to one pin only). Note: Never connect two jumper pins in the same row--always connect pins in different rows, as shown in Figure 2-10. Correct (example of Master setting) Incorrect Figure 2-10. Set the EZFlyer EIDE drive to either Master or Slave. To set the EZFlyer drive to Master, use a jumper to connect the master/slave pin set (pins 1 and 2). To set the EZFlyer drive to Slave, place the jumper on only one pin of the master/slave pin set (or remove it entirely). This is the default setting (no jumper installed) when the EZFlyer EIDE drive is shipped. Figure 2-11 shows the correct pins to connect to set the EZFlyer drive to Master, Slave, or Cable Select. Caution: Do not use jumper pins identified as factory reserved in Figure 2-11. [. . . ] Insert the SyQuest installation diskette. Verify that the cartridge is fully inserted in the EZFlyer drive. 2.
