1.)
Which CD-ROM do you have ? Brand and type ...
Is it compatible ? 2-4x speed, simply SCSI, not SCSI 2, ultra or ultra-wide etc. ?

2.)
Akai S-1000 is always on SCSI ID 6,- so set your CD-ROM to any other ID.
On the back of the CD-ROM (not the enclosure where it might be built in) there is a guide for jumper settings for IDs.
If it´s built into a external SCSI enlosure, you might find switches to set the ID.

Same rules for SCSI termination.
If your CD-Rom is the only one or last device in the SCSI chain,- it has to be terminated.
This eventually can be done w/ a jumper or a tremination resistor too w/ your CD-Rom drive alone, or a termination plug for your SCSI enclosure might be needed.
There are also enclosurs w/ switchable termination.

3.)
Connect the CD-ROM drive and power it up

4.
Power up your S-1000,- it will say something like "waiting for harddisk ready" (you can skip at this point if you don´t want to load from a mass storage device).

5.)
Look into your S-1000 manual and follow the steps to access any SCSI harddrive, i.e. set the right SCSI-ID for the SCSI drive which should match the ID of the SCSI-CD-ROM-drive.

6.)
On the S-1000, go to the (harddisk) load menue and look for content (be sure to have a Akai compatible library CD insterted into the CD-ROM drive).

7.)
If you see nothing or if it doesn´t load anything, there´s something wrong like incompatible drive, damaged IB-103 SCSI board, wrong disk, faulty SCSI wirering of the SCSI-drive enclosure,- bad SCSI cable, bad termination,- or you do mistakes.

8.)
please read the manual of your S-1000KB how to access, read & write mass storage devices

9.)
be patient and google for the IB-103 and 104 manuals,- these are somewhere in the web.

10.)

good luck

:-)

Hello again

Yes it is expanded with SCSI and digital I O module.
Dnfortunately can not find the AKAI IB-103 SCSI interface board manual.
Is there anyone who is in with it?
