A Write sequence is initiated when Write Gate is activated. which
causes the Read/Write LSlto apply

U.2 HANDUNGAND STATIC-DISCHARGEPRECAUTIONS
After unpacki!1B and prior to system integration, the drive is eAposed
to potential ha ndling and ESD hazard.
De DOt touch the PCB "l~nKton, boIlEd rompoMnts or the
printed drcult. cable _Itbout obser.lnl Slatlc-dlscharae precautions.
Handle tbe drin b)' tbe (rame onl)'.
II is stronBly recommended that the drive always rest on a padded sur.
race, with the l1eads parked over the shippinB zone, until the drive is
mounted in the host system.
1.1.3 SHIPPINGZONE
The ST22S employs a shippinB lone. located rrom Cylinders 61S to
670, to preserve data integrity during shippin8ltranspon. The
Read/Write heads may be parked in the shipping zone by issuing a
seek to any cylinder between 615-670. The drive may then be
powered-down.
Upon power-up. the drive will recalibrate to Track _. Ir the heads are
parked while power is still applied. any Step pulse will cause the unit
to recaJibrate to Track ~.

PRECOMPENSATION 7.1.4
Precompensation is recommended on Tracks 300 through 614. The
optimum amouill or precompensalion is 12nsec ror both early and late

compensated. An X denotes a "don't care state."
As the Read/Write heads travel inward. the track circumrerence or
course decreases. and the data bits are necessarily written eloser togeth.
