When the standby timer expires, the drive makes the transition to the Standby mode. The drive requires approximately 100–200 msec to return to Active mode from Idle mode.

Standby mode. The drive enters Standby mode when the host sends a Standby or Standby Immediate command. If the standby command has set the standby timer, the drive enters Standby mode automatically after the drive has been inactive for the specified length of time. In Standby mode, the buffer remains enabled, the heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode any time a disc access command is received. The drive requires approximately 3 seconds to return to Active mode from Standby mode.

Sleep mode. The drive enters Sleep mode only after receiving a Sleep command from the host. The heads are parked and the spindle is at rest. The ROM and RAM codes are valid; however, the cache is flushed before going to sleep. The drive leaves Sleep mode when either a Hard Reset interface signal or a Soft Reset signal (Device Control register=04) is received from the host. After receiving a Soft Reset, the drive exits Sleep mode and enters Standby mode, with all current emulation and transla- tion parameters intact. After receiving a Hard Reset signal, the drive exits Sleep mode and enters Active mode. The drive is reinitialized to the default parameters. This is the same procedure as initial power-on and requires approximately 7 seconds to complete.

Idle and standby timers. The drive sets the default time delay for the idle timer at power-on to 5 seconds. If the idle timer reaches zero before any drive activity is required, the drive makes a transition to Idle mode. Each time the drive performs an Active function (read, write or seek), the idle and standby timers are reinitialized and begin counting down from their specified delay times to zero. If the standby timer has been set and no additional drive activity occurs, the drive remains in Idle mode for the time specified in the standby timer, then enters Standby mode.

If the host has not set the standby timer and no additional drive activity occurs, the drive remains in Idle mode for 30 minutes, then enters standby mode. In both Idle and Standby mode, the drive accepts all commands and returns to Active mode when disc access is necessary.
