[comp.sys.cbm] Seeking HELP on 1581 disk drive!

doctorj@en.ecn.purdue.edu (Jeffrey W Davis) (02/21/91)

I am in need of some simple information.
PLEASE READ IF YOU OWN A 1581 DRIVE!

I have used the 3 1/2" drive out of a 1581 on another computer.  The
problem is that I changed the jumpers on the back of the drive (Not the
unit number dip switches).

If you have a 1581 PLEASE take the two screws out that hold the case on
and check the jumpers on the rear of the disk drive.  Which ones need
to be jumpered?

Knowing there are different drives used in the 1581, mine has 5 sets of
jumpers on the rear of the drive next to the 34 pin drive connector.  To
clarify, that is a 2x5 matrix of pins with the jumpers installed
vertically connecting two pins.
                      __________________
     Drive conn.-->  |__________________| :::::  <-- jumper pins

Again, I have been unable to figure this out!  The drive works, and the
hardware works... so what jumper settings will make these two work in
perfect harmony?

Please respond ASAP!  I am not going to be able to sell this to the
prospective buyer if it does not work.

Thanks in advance....
