How to Set the CD-Writer Plus as
Master or Slave
When you place Software Disc 1 in your CD-ROM and click Install CD-
Writer Plus the software analyzes your computer and makes a
recommendation about connecting the CD-Writer Plus hardware.
The Install Recommendation tells you whether the jumper on the CD-
Writer Plus should be set as Master or Slave for your computer.
Find the pairs of pins labeled Master, Slave, and Cable Select on the back
of the CD-Writer Plus. Notice that one pair of pins has a small plastic cap
or jumper. This jumper can be pulled off using your fingers, tweezers, or
needlenose pliers, and placed on a different pair of pins to change the
setting.
