Programs included on the diskette. If you want any of the following programs to be executed everytime you start your system, please add them to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file ! * MPC.COM Memory resident program that communicates to the device driver through a character interface specified by the /C switch. It can be used to play an Audio-CD on your CD-ROM drive. This program does not support the DW-S114X and DR-U104X. * MPC98.COM Same as MPC.COM, but for NEC-98 series computers (Japanese) * MPCRMV.COM Remove program from memory. * MPC98RMV Same as MPCRMV.COM, but for NEC-98 series computers (Japanese) * DISC.EXE A DRD600 series driver can support maximum 24 discs (drive letter limitation) or maximum 7 CD-ROM drives (SCSI limitation). Some applications only work when run from a specified drive letter and/or Logical Unit. If you use a DRD600 series driver, the DISC.EXE utility allows you to change the order of drive letters. Procedure: C:>DISC (e.g.) C:>DISC MSCD001 or C:>DISC : (e.g.) C:>DISC G: Note : ":" is needed for drive name. < Change the order > C:>DISC [-R] No.1 No.2 ... (e.g.) C:>DISC MSCD001 3 0 Specified disc number is changed. If you add -R option, discs would line up from 0 to 1, 2, 3, ..... In case of (e.g.) , Fourth disc seems to be first disc. < Exchange two drives > C:>DISC (e.g.) C:>DISC D: G: Note : ":" should follow the drive letter. Exchange Drive letter 1 and Drive letter 2. In case of (e.g.), Exchange drive letter D: and G:. * XDISC.EXE If you connect multiple 6 disc drives, you may not have enough Drive letters available. This program allows you to indicate which of the 6 discs will be used. C:\%path%\XDISC (e.g.) C:>XDISC G: 1 * DRDUTL.EXE The DRD600 series device driver and MSCDEX.EXE allow MS-DOS to add multiple CD-ROM drives. Currently, some applications will waste time doing useless actions or can't handle the device driver error messages, if multiple CD-ROM drives are connected. This utility changes the driver's behavior (mode) to permit the optimum performance of this type of application. Use this utility only when your application program requests this kind of change of mode. The use of this program is explained below: C:>DRDUTL (e.g.) C:>DRDUTL MSCD001 or C:>DRDUTL : (e.g.) C:>DRDUTL G: Note : ":" should follow the drive letter. C:>DRDUTL [ switch ....] switch DSKCHK:ON(OFF) Enables or disables the disc check operation. SEEK:ON(OFF) Enables or disables the seek operation. VDRTRY:ON(OFF) Enables or disables "Invalid Medium Change" error message when reading the Volume Descriptor. Follow the setting of these switches as the application requests. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pioneer Electronic (Europe) NV Optical Systems Department Haven 1087, Keetberglaan 1, 9120 Melsele, Belgium tel : +/32/3/570.05.11 fax : +/32/3/570.08.94 BBS : +/32/3/570.08.80 email : optical@pioneer.be URL : http://www.pioneer-eur.com
