Interface Termination  (W4)
Jumper installed at W4 (Default) - The drive provides termination for the interface lines; onboard termination is electrically enabled. Jumper omitted at W4 - The drive does not provide termination for the interface lines; onboard termination is electrically disabled.

Terminator Power (W1, W2, W3)
Jumper installed at W1 (Default) - The drive provides terminator power.
Jumper installed at W2 - The host provides terminator power (via Interface Connector J1A).
Jumper installed at W3 (Default) - The drive provides terminator power (via J1A) to the SCSI Bus. 

Spindle Control (SP0)
Jumper installed at SP0, jumper omitted at SP1 - The spindle motor starts when SCSI 'START UNIT' command is received. Jumpers omitted at SP0 (Default) and at SP1 - The spindle motor starts at power-on.

Spindle Delay (SP1)
Jumper installed at SP1, jumper omitted at SP0 Spindle motor start-up is delayed, based on SCSI ID (12 seconds per SCSI ID). Jumpers omitted at SP1 (Default) and at SP0 - The spindle motor starts at power-on.

Write Protect (WP)
Jumper installed at WP - The drive is write protected. Jumper omitted at WP (Default) - The drive is not write protected.

BUS Parity Check (PTY)
Jumper installed at PTY - The drive neither generates nor detects parity. Jumper omitted at PTY (Default) - The drive generates parity and has parity detection enabled. 

Remote LED
