Comment concerning CP3000 jumpers:

According to your list, all Conners should be 2 or 3 jumpers only.
That's why I'm puzzled with the 4-jumper Conner CP-3000.
In addition to the common jumpers present in
Conner - C/D, DSP & ACT, there is an extra one: HSP
By trial and error, HSP seems to follow DSP setting.

and:
information: I am slaving a Conner CP3000 40Meg to a Western Digital
Caviar 2200 212 Meg.

the results: I first found out that pin 1 on the CP3000 was LABELED
INCORRECTLY on the PC board....had to flip the IDE cable (which made the
cable install much more cleanly- no flips....shoulda been my first clue
that something was not correct, oh well)

next: I had to DOS-format the CP3000 ALONE on the PC system before it
wanted to work with the WD caviar.... weird
also: the WD Caviar is partitioned: C:\ was the first 100 Meg and D:\ was
the second 100 Meg. After the CMOS was correctly configured and the
drives brought online, the PC AUTOMATICALLY assigned the drives as thus:
C:\ first 100 Meg partition on the WD
D:\ 40 Meg Conner
E:\ second 100 Meg partition on the WD
even FDISK reports the above.

Subject: Re: Conner CP 30254

I tried several combination and even called Conner for info on
configuring two Conner drives as master (301??, a 300+ M Connder
drive) and slave (30254). The jumpers that worked are:

Pins Jumpers
Master 1-2 Y (factory setting)
3-4 Y (factory setting)

Slave 1-2 N
3-4 Y (factory setting)

So the C/D should mape to Y/N instead of N/Y in the table.

Some notes made whilst configuring a pair of Conner IDE drives
for Master/Slave operation from Hyundai Super-LT6 Laptop 386sx-20.

Final Working Configuration

Drive 1: CP3000 40 Mb Type 17
977 cyl 5 hds 17 sec/trk Pre 300 LZ 977

Verified configuration as per Grammes' list. HSP does need to
follow DSP (empirically) - failure to do so produced behaviour
such as LCD screen display scrambling on ROM boot.

Single, Master and Slave configurations all checked out.

Drive 2: CFA170A 170 Mb Unknown type
332 cyl 16 hds 63 sec/trk Pre --- LZ ---

Did not appear on Grammes' list. Successful configuration resulted
close to that shown as Table 3 for Conner drives, as follows:

Single 2 links (not C)/D and (not A)/(?)
Master 1 link (not C)/D
Slave 0 links

One link is listed here as (not A)/(?) due to a hole being drilled
through the (?) part of the silk screening ...

The drives worked together as either slave or master ...

Model CP342 disk (40 Meg IDE drive)
Single Drive: E5, E7 jumpers IN
Master Drive: E6, E7 jumpers IN
Slave Drive: E7 jumper IN

In addition, this is an old disk drive. It was factory configured to
use 3:1 interleave. This can cause timing problems with newer disk
drives that are configured for 1:1 interleave when using the same IDE
controller. The CONNER tech support person suggested I only use the
CONNER drive as a SLAVE with the newer disk as the MASTER.

This configuration (MAXTOR 7345A as MASTER and CONNER CP342 as SLAVE)
has now been in use for over a week and seems to be working fine.

> I was trying to set my IDE drive in the subject above to a slave drive for
> A Conner 170MB drive and contacting the support company gave me this answer
(which works). The factory default on SW2 is On Off Off Off Off Off (1-6).
This sets the drive to be a single drive. Setting SW2 to Off On On Off Off Off
makes it a slave drive. SW1 has been set to On Off Off On (1-4) all along.

There are two sets of jumpers. A set of 5 and a set of
4. With the power and IDE connector toward you, the set of 5 is
numbered (left to right) J16 - J20 , and the set of 4 is numbered
(bottom to top) J22-J25. 

The only jumper of normal interest is J20. Jumper it for only
drive in a single drive system, or master drive in a dual drive
system.

Remove the jumper J20 for slave drive in a dual drive system. 

J19 is a dummy and may be used to store the spare shunt if the 
drive is configured for a slave mode.

Jumpers J17, J18, J24, J25 are factory reserved. Abnormal operation
may occur if jumpered.

Jumper 22 is sync spindle enabled/disabled (open=disabled)
Jumper 23 is sync slave/master (open=slave)

Technical Notes:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The WPC and Landing Zone BIOS entieres do not need a specific number 
for proper operation. Maxtor AT interface hard drives will ignore and
override any numbers programmed. 

* Drive is low-level formated with 1:1 interleave at factory, with any 
defects retired to a dedicated non-destructive zone.

* The drive's on-board controller will auto-translate every cylinder, 
head, and SPT combination listed in the parameters table. Therefore, 
configuration jumpers J13 and J14 are not required for most AT BIOS 
setup applications.

* The 7080A is shipped with J17-J20 jumered and the 7040A is shipped 
with J18-J20 jumpered to operate as single AT IDE drives. J20 and J19 
control master/slave operation.

Link Options

In order to install the Rodime Ro 3000A series drives the dumpers for 
the single/dual drive and LED operation on the drive need to be set as 
described in the relevant product specification.
I a single drive environment the drive is described as a Master.
In a dual drive environment the drives are described as a Master and a
Slave. This is due to the protocal the takes place between the two drives 
when performing diagnostics.
There are four links, LK1, LK2, LK4 and LK5, adjacent to the 40 way 
interface connector. They have the following functions and are described 
in order as viewed from the end of the drive, with the first jumper 
described nearest the 40 way interface connector.

LK2: LED 
When fitted, this jumper connects the LED drive to pin 39 of the
interface. This allows a LED to be connected to the interface. An
external current limiting resistor needs to be fitted in series with
the LED when this option is selected. The value of the resistor will
be dependant on the LED type chosen but will be in the range of 130
Ohms ot 220 Ohms.

LK1: Dual Drives
This jumper must be fitted when two drives are attached to a single
bus. It fallows communication across the 40 way interface connector,
indicating, to the Master drive, the presence of a Slave.

LK4: Master
When fitted this signifies that the drive jumpered is a Master. If
there are two drives connected on a single bus then only one may be
jumpered in this way.

LK5: IOChRdy
When fitted this connects the IOChRdy signal to the drive, it is 
fitted when the drive is used in host systems that have a higher
data transfer rate than the drive i.e. greater than 4 MBytes per
second when using 1:1 interleave. This jumper is not normally 
fitted as most hosts transfer at a lower rate than 4 MBytes per
second.

There are four possible Master/Slave configurations in which a drive(s)
may be jumpered:

Master, single drive with LED on interface LK2 & LK4 fitted.
Master, single drive without LED on interface LK4 only fitted.
Master, dual drive without LED on interface LK4 & LK1 fitted.
Slave, dual drive without LED on interface No jumpers fitted.
Master, dual drive with LED on interface LK4, LK1 & LK2 fitted.
Slave, dual drive with LED on interface LK2 only fitted.

The Master drive will delay power-up for approximately two seconds to
reduce power surges in applications where dual drives are used.

The other connections for a LED will be found close to the 28 way 
connector at the other end of the drive. This LED driver is not affected
by the link options. An internal current limiting resistor is on the 
drive for this LED driver. Refer to the product specification for further
details.

Name: WDAC2420
Size(Mb): 405.6
Cylinders: 989
Heads: 15
Sectors: 56
(uses dynamic translation)
Jumpers: CP MA SL

The drive runs as a slave with a WDAC2200 as master just fine.


Please note that these are the *recommended* CMOS parameters. All the disks 
support so-called dynamic translation, and should thus be able to work with
any parameters having fewer sectors than the total number of sectors on
the disk.

Now, according to the manual, the jumper settings are as follows:

Jumper CP MA SL
-------------------------------------------------
Single 0 0 0
Master 0 1 0
Slave 0 0 1
Slave with Conner CP342 or CP3022 1 0 1 


Maybe there are 2 kinds of Caviar's floating around: 

If your jumpers read MA SL and SI then use:
Jumper SI MA SL
Single 1 0 0
Master 0 1 0
Slave 0 0 1

There have been reported difficulties in using WD Caviar as Master and
NEC drives as slave - the other way it works.
