Use the following procedure to set up the VS-1680
for use with the VS-CDRII:
1. With all equipment turned off, connect either

SCSI port of the VS-CDRII to the SCSI port of the
VS-1680.

2. If you are connecting only the VS-CDRII to your

VS-1680, make sure the termination switch on
the back of the VS-CDRII is set to the “on”
position (switch to the left) and the mode switch
is set to the “off” position (switch to the right). If
you are using multiple SCSI devices, connect
them to the CD-R drive and only terminate the
last device in the chain.

3. Set the ID numbers of each SCSI device so that

they do not conflict (VS-series workstations
default to SCSI ID #7).

4.

Turn on the power in the following order:
VS-CDRII, VS-1680, then audio equipment.

Note: The current VS-CDRII requires the VS-1680 to
have at least the system version v2.010. If you need
to update your VS-workstation, you can obtain these
files along with updating instructions from the Roland
US Website (

www.rolandus.com

) or by calling our

Product Support department at 323-890-3741.
