Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for purchasing, and welcome to — theYamaha

CDR100/102. Before using CDR100/102, please read through

this

Operation Guide

WhatisCDR100/102?

TheYamaha CDR100/102 allows you to record data onto

Compact Disc Recordable (CD-R) discs. It can also be used to

play discs just like a typical CD-ROM drive

. CD-ROM is an

acronym for Compact Disc Read Only Memory, which is a

read-only medium, so you can read data, but you cannot

record new data.

CDR100/102 uses a special kind of disc for recording. Its

appearance is similar to that of a typical CD-ROM, however,

the base material, manufacturing techniques, and recording

principles are different. CDR100/102 uses a laser to write data

to disc. Once the laser light hits the disc, the color and

reﬂective qualities of the disc change. Since this reﬂective

quality cannot be changed after initial exposure, the data

cannot be erased or changed.

Now that multimedia, which encompasses text, graphics,

audio, and video, has become a reality, CD-ROM, with its

550MB to 650MB storage capacity, has an important

supporting role to play.

* CDR100/102 will not play commercially made discs whose

center-hole location does not conform to the Orange book

speciﬁcation.

2xSRecording&4xSReading(CDR102)

CDR100 is the ﬁrst CD-ROM recorder capable of recording at

quad speed (4xS). This means a signiﬁcant time saving for

CD-ROM production. Both the CDR100 and CDR102 can

record at double speed (2xS) and normal speed (1xS), and read

discs at quad speed (4xS). CDR100 records at a maximum

speed of 4xS. CDR102 records at a maximum speed of 2xS.

DualUse:RecordandPlay

As well as recording CD-ROM and CD-DA format discs,

CDR100/102 can play them, too. For these two formats,

CDR100/102 functions just like a typical CD-ROM drive.

Compactbody

A compact size - approximately the size of an internal 5.25

inch ﬂoppy disk drive (half-height type) - allows you to build

the unit into your system architecture easily.

SCSI2forHigh-Volume,High-SpeedData

Transfer

CDR100/102 features SCSI2–the Second generation SCSI

interface for connecting computers and peripheral devices.

SCSI2 provides high-speed transmission for large volume

data, especially important when working with image data.

4 Introduction

Yamaha CDR100/102

OrangeBookPart2Compatible3-Mode

Recording

CDR100/102 conforms to the three recording modes outlined

in the Orange Book Part 2: TrackAt Once, Multisession and

Disc At Once.

TrackatOnce

In this mode, data can be recorded to disc a track at a time.

However, the disc cannot be played until the ﬁnal recording is

made.

Multisession

In this mode, data can be recorded to disc one track at a time,

and the disc can be played in-between recording sessions.

DiscAtOnce

In this mode, data can be recorded to an entire disc in one go.

To use this mode, your software must support Disc At Once

recording.

CD-R Discs 5

Yamaha CDR100/102

CD-RDiscs

Yamaha have developed two discs, use the discs below, or

conventional CD-R discs that conform to the Orange Book

Standard.

• CDM12Y63 (12-cm)

• CDM12Y74 (12-cm)

Using discs developed and manufactured byYamaha will

minimize the occurrence of errors during writing operation,

and will ensure compatibility when you read data from the

disc using another manufacturer’s CD-ROM drive.

When using the “TRACKAT ONCE” recording mode, do not

try to play the disc until it has been ﬁnalized (i.e., until the

lead in/out information has been written), otherwise errors or

malfunctions may occur. Likewise, trying to play a blank disc

(i.e., a disc that has not yet been recorded) in a CD-ROM

drive, CD player, or CD-I player may cause malfunctions and

disc scratches.

ControllingSoftware

CDR100/102 is a platform independent software controlled

device. It can be used in MS-DOS, Windows, Macintosh, and

UNIX environments. Before purchasing software, make sure

that it supports CDR100/102 and your computer platform.

CDCaddyand8-cmdiscadaptor

(Option)

Use aYamaha CD Caddy designed for the CDR100/102, or an

equivalent caddy marked with the logo . Using another

type of CD caddy may prevent the drive from operating at

optimal performance and may cause malfunction.

Also, use a dedicatedYamaha disc adaptor (item number:ADP

08) for the CDR100/102. Using another type of disc adaptor

may prevent the drive from operating at optimal performance.

Use the disc adaptor only for 8-cm Compact Discs and CD

Write-Once Discs.

• 8-cm disc adaptor (option)

Note:

The disc adaptor is dedicated to the CDR100/102. Use

of the adaptor on other devices may cause malfunction.

DISC indicator

This indicator ﬂashes when loading and ejecting. It remains on

when CDR100/102 contains a disc. If a disc is not inserted

into the caddy correctly, or the caddy does not contain a disc,

the DISC indicator stops ﬂashing and the caddy is ejected.

READ indicator

This indicator ﬂashes when data is being accessed. It remains

on when disc data is being read, and when CDR100/102 is

ready to record.

WRITE indicator

This indicator lights up when recording to disc. In Test mode,

it ﬂashes.

X2/X4 indicators

These indicators show the speed: 2xS or 4xS. When both are

off, the speed is 1xS. When CDR100/102 is reset, these

indicators ﬁrst go out, then both come on for an instant, then

the X2 indicator goes out, leaving just the X4 indicator on.

EJECT button

This button is used to eject the caddy.

Manual eject hole

This is used to manually eject a caddy that cannot be ejected in

the normal way. It is for emergency use only.

CD Caddy insertion slot

The CD Caddy is inserted here. A protective ﬂap covers the

slot.

Note:

DISC and READ indicators ﬂashing together indicates

an error.

2. If you are using an 8-cm disc, insert the adaptor

(option) into the caddy.

3. Remove the CD-R disc from its jewel case.

Note:

The adaptor (option) is designed for exclusive use with

CDR100/102. It may not work correctly with other devices.

Important:

Take great care when handling CD-ROM discs.

They are more sensitive to damage than audio CDs, and the

slightest scratch can render a disc useless. Do not expose

discs to dust, dirt, or moisture.
