              *  *  *

 Combinations of jumpers E2, E3 and E4 can be made to determine a
 correct configuration. An explanation of the jumpers follows:

   Jumper E2 enables or disables chip select 1 (CS1). Installed
   enables it.

   Jumper E3 will clear IRQ14 with deassertion of Host SLV/ACT.

   Jumper E4 will clear IRQ14 with a status read only.

 Care must be exercised with the routing of the power & signal cables.
 They should not be routed next to the drive PCB or other high
 frequency or large current switching signals. Improper drive opera-
 tion can result from improper cable routing.

   +-----------------+

 Installation direction
 ----------------------
 The drive may be mounted in any attitude!


 Recommended Mounting Configuration
 ----------------------------------
 The CP3204F drive is designed to be used in applications where the
 unit may experience shock and vibrations at greater levels than
 larger and heavier disk drives.

 The design features which allow greater shock tolerance are the use
 of rugged heads and media, a dedicated landing zone, closed loop
 servo positioning and specially designed motor and actuator
 assemblies.

 Ten base mounting points are provided to the customer. The drive
 is mounted using 6-32 x 1/8" max. insertion for the sides, and 1/4"
 insertion for the bottom. The system integrator should allow ventila-
 tion to the drive to ensure reliable drive operation over the opera-
 ting temperature range.

 For additional vibration isolation, an external suspension system may
 be used.


 Task File Interface Connector
 -----------------------------
 The CP3204F has a 40 pin Task File Interface connector (J2) mounted
 on the printed circuit board. The recommended mating connector is
 Molex part number 10-91-2401 or equivalent. Two drives may be daisy
 chained together at this connector, and the maximum cable length is
 two feet.


 Signal Conventions
 ------------------
 All signals on the Host Interface shall have the prefix HOST. All
 negatively active signals shall be further prefixed with a "-"
 designation. All positive active signals shall be prefixed with a "+"
 designation. Signals whose source are the Host, are said to be
 "outbound" and those whose source is the drive, are said to be
 "inbound".

 Diagnostic Routines
 -------------------
 The microprocessor performs diagnostics upon application of power. If
 an error is detected the CP3204F will not come ready.


 Signal Levels
 -------------
 All signal levels are TTL compatible. A logic "1" is > 2.0 Volts. A
 logic "0" is from 0.00 Volts to 0.70 Volts.


 Air Filtration System
 ---------------------
 Within the sealed enclosure, a 0.3 micro filter provides a clean
 environment to the heads and disks.


 Drive Mechanism
 ---------------
 A brushless DC direct drive motor rotates the spindle at 3485 RPM.
 The motor/spindle assembly is dynamically balanced to provide a
 minimal mechanical runout to the disks. A dynamic brake is used to
 provide a fast stop to the spindle motor and return the heads to the
 landing zone when power is removed.


 Installation of the Drive and Adapter Card
 ------------------------------------------
  1. Remove power to the computer

  2. If another hard disk controller is installed, it is necessary to
     prevent it from responding to the addresses 1F0-7 and 3F6-7.
     It is also necessary to ensure that the controller is
     electrically disconnected or tri-stated from IRQ14 of the mother-
     board bus. This may be done either by removing the board, by
     electrically disconnecting the signal from the interface, or by
     setting the jumpers of the board to disable the hard disk
     controller.

  3. Insert the board into any available card slot.

  4. Configure the Host adapter for the correct configuration of your
     computer BIOS.

     Adapter Card Jumpers   E1 and E3 always not installed

                         o  o  o

  5. Connect power to the CP3204F.

  6. Run the DOS FDISK program (or equivalent) to establish DOS
     partitions.

     Note: DOS 3.2 and below have limitations of 32 megabytes unless
           software utility is used to overcome this.

  7. Run the DOS format program by typing "Format C:/S". The volume
     may be named with the addition of the "/V". The format will be
     completed and the system transferred if the "/S" option was used.
     The system will ask for a volume name if the "/V" option is used.

  8. Files can then be copied to the C: drive from the floppy.

  9. When the system is rebooted, the system should boot from the hard
     drive (Drive C:) if the floppy is removed.

 Seek Times
 ----------

       +----------------------------------+--------+
       |Track-to-Track         msec.      |   5    |
       +----------------------------------+--------+
       |               Average msec. typ. |  16    |
       |               Average msec. max. |  35    |
       +----------------------------------+--------+
       |Latency                msec. avg. |   8.61 |
       +----------------------------------+--------+
       The timing is measured through the interface with the drive
       operating at nominal DC input voltages.

       The average seek time is determined by averaging the seek time
       for a minimum of 1000 seeks of random length over the surface
       of the disk.


 Functional Description
 ----------------------
 The drive contains all necessary mechanical and electronic parts to
 interpret control signals, position the recording heads over the
 desired track, read and write data, and provide a contaminant free
 environment for the heads and disks.


 Read/Write and Control Electronics
 ----------------------------------
 One integrated circuit is mounted within the sealed enclosure in
 close proximity to the read/write heads. Its function is to provide
 head selection, read pre-amplification, and write drive circuitry.

 The single microprocessor controlled circuit card provides the
 remaining electronic functions which include:

        - Read/Write Circuitry
        - Rotary Actuator Control
        - Interface Control
        - Spin Speed Control
        - Dynamic Braking

 At power down the heads are automatically retracted to the inner
 diameter of the disk and are latched and parked on a landing zone
 that is inside the data tracks.


 Read/Write Heads and Disks
 --------------------------
 Data is recorded on 95mm diameter disk through 3370 type heads.


 Error Correction
 ----------------
 The drive performs internal error correction. A seven byte error
 correction polynominal is appended to each half of a 512 byte block.
 The polynominal is set to correct up to a maximum of 8 bits in error
 in its half of the 512 byte block.


 Execute Drive Diagnostic - 90
 -----------------------------
 This command runs the internal diagnostic tests implemented by the
 drive. The diagnostic tests shall only be executed upon receipt of
 this command. The drive sets BSY immediately upon receipt of this
 command. If the drive is a master (C/D jumpered) the drive performs
 the diagnostic tests and saves the results. It then checks to see if
 a slave drive is present and waits up to 5 seconds for the slave to
 complete its diagnostics. If the slave successfully completes its
 diagnostics, it asserts -HOST PDIAG. If unsuccessful, it sets its
 Error Register as described below. The master drive resets BSY, and
 generates an interrupt. The value in the Error Register should be
 viewed as a unique 8 bit code and not as the single bit flags
 defined previously. The interface registers are set to initial values
 except for the Error Register if an error occurred.

 The table below details the codes in the Error Register:
 +----------+-----------------------------------+
 |Error Code|Description                        |
 +----------+-----------------------------------+
 |    01    |no error detected                  |
 |    03    |sector buffer error                |
 |    8x    |slave drive failed (see note below)|
 +----------+-----------------------------------+

 NOTE
 If the slave drive fails diagnostics, the master drive shall "OR"
 80H with its own status and load that code into the error register.
 If the slave drive passes diagostics or there is no slave drive
 connected, the master drive shall set bit 7 of the Error Register in
 the Task File to 0. Additional codes may be implemented at the
 manufacturer's option.


 Error Reporting
 ---------------
 In general, errors are detected in the following fashion by the
 drive microprocessor. At the start of this execution of the command,
 the command register is checked for conditions that would lead to an
 aborted command. Then the operation is attempted. Any subsequent
 error terminates the command at the point that is discovered. The
 errors that are valid for each command are summarized in the follow-
 ing matrix. Any subsequent error terminates the command at the point
 that it is discovered.

 Write Precomp Register
 ----------------------
 (-HOST CS0, address 1 write only.) A register previously used to set
 write precompensation, that is presently used only for enabling or
 disabling look ahead read's.


 Evaluation Adapter Board
 ------------------------
 In order to facilitate evaluation and aid those manufacturers
 interested in quickly getting the CP3204F drive running, Conner
 Peripherals has developed an adapter board to be used in conjunction
 with the drive on an AT or equivalent system. The drive requires no
 special driver program as it works with the existing AT Bios or
 equivalent. It is hoped that the interface will be incorporated into
 the motherboard of the AT device or on some other multi-function
 adapter. The artwork and Bill of Materials are available upon re-
 quest.


 Head Positioning Mechanism
 --------------------------
 The read/write heads are supported by a mechanism coupled to the
 voice coil actuator.
