1.0Features of the DRM-7000 Disc Changer

1.1Flexible Unit Design

The Pioneer DRM-7000 Disc Changer is designed so that a various components may be installed together to meet a variety of needs.

The Pioneer DRM-7000 provides easily, accessed bays on both the front and the back of the unit as well as a hyper-magazine bay on the front. The bays support drives and/or 50-disc magazines and are fitted with access panels for the installation or removal of individual components.

While the front bays are designed exclusively for 50-disc magazines (up to a maximum of seven magazines), the rear bays allow for mixed components. The rear bays support up to sixteen drives or a maximum of eight 50-dsic magazines. By installing two drives per rear bay, the maximum storage is increased to 720 discs. Conversely, it is also possible to install only 370 discs (filling the front bay and the hyper-magazine bay) and sixteen drives to maximize the performance of the DRM-7000.

An alternative is to leave the bays unfilled immediately after installation and to add new drives and/or disc magazines as needed.

1.2Types of Disc Magazines

Pioneer offers three different types of disc magazines to support a wide variety of applications.

•20-Disc Hyper Magazine

A single 20-disc magazine (included at no cost with the purchase of a DRM-7000) may be installed and removed without opening an access panel. The lock, located on the exterior of the changer, is equipped with a memory system that records all user operations.

•50-Disc Magazine (Locking)

This magazine is designed to maximize security. The locking mechanism prevents removing a disc from a magazine through commands to the Changer. The locking magazine is perfect for managing office media.

•50-Disc Magazine

Fitted with a knob which releases the locking mechanism, this magazine makes it possible to exchange discs between different magazines with commands sent to the Changer.

1.3Ease of Installation

In order to connect the Changer to an existing computer system or to build a new computer system, it is necessary for the HOST computer to be able to properly identify the Changer and the drives. All cables between the Changer and the HOST must be connected prior to selecting the settings. The Pioneer DRM-7000 was designed for easy drive and magazine installations but also with a wide range of features to make it easier to specify HOST settings. Once all cables have been connected and the settings specified, the HOST computer is able to control the Changer.
