FEATURES
FLEXIBLE UNIT DESIGN
The Pioneer DRM-7000/DRM-3000-disc changer is designed
so that a variety of different components may be purchased
and installed together to meet a variety of different needs.
The Pioneer DRM-7000/DRM-3000 comes with bays (i.e.,
spaces for the installation of drives or 50-disc magazines)
located at the front and rear of the unit, and the bays are
fitted with access doors that are designed to open widely
and enable you to install or remove individual components
with ease.
The front bay is for exclusive use with 50-disc magazines;
the rear bay has been designed as a multi-purpose installation
area:
If desired, you can start with empty bay spaces and add
devices to them as your requirements increase.
THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DISC
MAGAZINES EQUIPPED WITH INTERNAL
MEMORY
Pioneer provides three different types of disc magazines
designed for convenience and ease of use in different
applications.
20-disc hyper magazine:
The main feature of the hyper magazine is its mobility. It
can be inserted and removed without opening the access
door. Another feature is a smart memory system that
records all user operations toward its lock/unlock
mechanism. One hyper magazine is provided as a standard
equipment with each Pioneer DRM-7000/DRM-3000.
50-disc magazine (locked-type):
This model is perfect for managing offline media where
the security and unchangeableness may be required. Built-
in locking mechanism makes it impossible to remove discs
from magazine whenever it is outside the changer.
50-disc magazine (normal-type):
This model is convenient for importing or exporting large
volumes of discs into or from the changer. You can insert
discs into or remove them from a magazine releasing the
locking mechanism by a knob fitted with this magazine
when it is outside the changer.
EASE OF INSTALLATION
In order to connect the changer to an existing data
management system or to build a new data management
system, it is necessary for the host computer to be able to
properly identify the changer and all the drives contained
therein and it is necessary to attach all the cables and specify
the settings needed for the host computer to control the
changer and drives.
The Pioneer DRM-7000/DRM-3000 is designed not only to
make it easy to install and add new drives, but also with a
wide range of features designed to make it easier to specify
host computer settings.
SECURITY FEATURES DESIGNED TO
PREVENT ERRONEOUS OR
UNAUTHORIZED OPERATIONS
In order to prevent interference, conflicts, or clashes occurring
between manual operations and computer-based operations,
entering procedure to the system administrator mode is
introduced. Anyone who wants to perform operations from
the control panel is required to enter system administrator
mode first, using the provided lock release key. And it is
possible to prevent the switchover to some sub-modes by
issuing a command from the host computer.
It is also possible to assign security privileges on the system
administrator who has the lock release key. Then operations
directly manipulating discs, like opening mailslot and ejecting
hyper magazine, are permitted to only the system
administrator.
CONTROL PANEL FITTED WITH AN LCD
MESSAGE WINDOW FOR EASE OF USE
The control panel is fitted with a 2-line, 16-column LCD
message window which is used to display instructions on
the proper operations to perform. And this makes it possible
to perform any of the wide variety of different operations
provided by the DRM-7000/DRM-3000 with only 5 keys.
