The Radial option is enabled by shoning pins I and 2 at the J7 shunt.
Drives configured to this option are always selected and respond to all
control signals issued on the attached control cable:. The 220/330Q
resistor temnination pack must remam installed on each radially-
connected drive.

The:drive: will enter the Aut()oTruncation mode if the controller issUe:!
an excessive number of Step pulses, which would place the
Read/Write heads outward beyond Track
II or inward beyond.
Cylinder 670.
With Aut()oTruncation active. the drive will ignore additional pulses,
take control of the stepper motor and n:caIibrate the heads to Track ,.

drive will either rc:c:nterAuto-Truncation mode with DIRECTION IN
false, or step the remaining cylinders witb DIRECTION IN true.

The WRITE FAULT signal may be inlemailylatched.This latch may
be cleared wben DRIVE SELECT gocs false (if pins 5 and 6 are shon-
ed at J7). The standard configuration. with the shoning block re-
moved, cause:s WRITE FAULT to go false when WRITE GATE goes
false. Refer to
See/ion 5.7 for a detailed- di!.;:ussion of WRITE
FAULT .
3.4 WRITE FAULT

DIRECTION IN. defines the direction the ReadfWrite: heads will
move when the STEP line is pulsed. With DIRECTION IN true, each
pulse causes the heads to move one cylinder inward toward the lipiD-
die..
When DIRECTION IN is false, each pulse causes the heads to move
one cyr :I<:routward toward Track _.

3.5 UFE TEST
This function is used during the manufacturinl process and is not
recommended for Deld use. When pins 7 and 8 are shoned. the stepper
motor will continuously seek between Track _ and the maximum
cylinder. Whc:onin this mode the drive will ignore control signals sent
via the interface.
