[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] What dip switch controls the terminating resistor?

mic119y@vaxc.cc.monash.edu.au (04/19/91)

I tried to e-mail this but the message bounced.

In item 6347 Tony Wesley asked about the dip switch settings of a Mitsubishi
MR 535 RLL/MFM drive.

SW1 - This is the termination switch, if ALL are set ON the drive IS TERMINATED
      conversely if ALL are OFF the drive is NOT TERMINATED

SW2 - The first four switches determine the drive number (drive 1, drive2,
drive 3, drive 4). ALL these should be OFF EXCEPT for the required
corresponding drive number switch. Switch 5 if ON is "Daisy-chain" if OFF irs
"Radial" (whatever that means). Switches 6, 7 and 8 in the Tech. info. are set
to OFF.

I hope this helps.
