Theory of Operation Jukebox Robotics Jukebox Robotics Movements The mechanism code of the jukebox accepts high-level SCSI commands from the interface, translates these commands into servo code for the jukebox, executes the command, and reports status. When a SCSI command is received, it is translated into a series of smaller submoves in the servo code of the jukebox and executed.
Page 196
Theory of Operation Jukebox Robotics assembly/leadscrew nut to rotate the mailslot assembly toward and away from the user. Macro-moves consist of one or more combinations of position or saturation type micro-moves. There are two types of micro-moves: • Position move: Moves the driving motors a given distance at peak speed and is used for high-speed, unobstructed movements of known distances.
Theory of Operation The Robotics Controller PCA The Robotics Controller PCA The robotics controller PCA contains the following major components, which are illustrated in Figure 6-2 on page 5-6: • Microprocessor: The MICROPROCESSOR is a Motorola MC68EC000 running at 12.288 MHz. This microprocessor controls all processes on the controller PCA such as servos, SCSI interface, and commands to the control panel.
Theory of Operation The Robotics Controller PCA generate a vacuum filament display using a 7.5-volt supply tied to a 5-volt reference, which results in an excitation voltage of from two to three volts. The grids of the display are at approximately 20 volts. Buffers for incoming control panel switch signals and signals from the mailslot sensor are also handled by the control panel drivers.
Theory of Operation Interposer PCA Interposer PCA The interposer PCA is an extension of the controller PCA. Figure 6-3 Interposer PCA Block Diagram Chapter 6...
Page 200
Theory of Operation Interposer PCA (Use the top portion of the diagram for the following explanation.) The single, GPIO and power connection from the controller PCA is J20. Address decode and data buffering takes addresses from the controller PCA and sends the data to proper locations and takes received data and routes the data to the proper destination.
Page 201
Theory of Operation Interposer PCA computer, is buffered on the interposer PCA, and sent to each drive individually. Req signals come from the drives and are buffered into one signal going back to the host computer. If a drive problem occurs, there is a possibility that this problem could be from the interposer’s buffering of the Req and Ack signals.
Theory of Operation Configuration Module Configuration Module The configuration module is a “key” that enables activation of the full complement of slots in the jukebox. The module is plugged into a connector on the interposer PCA (see #1 on Figure 5-14). All jukeboxes are shipped with a full complement of slots installed.
Theory of Operation Power Supplies Power Supplies There are two autoranging power supplies. • One supplies +5 volts at 15 amperes and +12 volts at 10 amperes, which powers the drives and the jukebox logic. • The other supply provides +24 volts at 5 amperes, which powers the motors.
Theory of Operation SCSI Interface PCA SCSI Interface PCA The SCSI interface PCA has two major functions: • Logically connect the active host SCSI bus (single-ended or differential) to the internal single-ended SCSI device bus. • Operate in a LUN mapping mode. Internally, the jukebox has a single-ended SCSI bus.
Theory of Operation SCSI Interface PCA Figure 6-6 SCSI Interface PCA The jukebox communicates to the PCA through a GPIO bus. The differential and single-ended connectors are on the top of the PCA and the single-ended bus connection to the jukebox is on the bottom. A slider switch between the two external connectors selects which type of input will be accepted.
Page 206
Theory of Operation SCSI Interface PCA The two large components on the PCA are the Field-Programmable Gate Array and the microprocessor. The microprocessor is an 80C52 that has flash-programmable memory on board. (There are no boot ROMs on this PCA). After the jukebox runs it selftest on wakeup, in instructs the PCA to come up in whichever mode has been selected by the user.
Theory of Operation Configuring This Jukebox on a SCSI Bus Configuring This Jukebox on a SCSI Bus This jukebox is a “fast and narrow” SCSI device with the capability to connect to either a narrow single-ended bus or a wide differential bus. In the diagram below, note that the single-ended (50-line) bus is brought directly onto the jukebox internal narrow bus.
Theory of Operation Configuring This Jukebox on a SCSI Bus Adding Devices to the Bus When considering adding other devices to the jukebox bus, consider the following: • Will adding a device onto a bus with this jukebox interfere or degrade the performance of the jukebox or the device that is added? •...
Page 209
Theory of Operation Configuring This Jukebox on a SCSI Bus would be lost if the devices were set up as depicted in the figure below. Because a narrow device only has a 50-pin connector, it will not transmit the eight extra bits of data needed for the wide device on the end of the bus.
Page 210
Theory of Operation Configuring This Jukebox on a SCSI Bus It is very important that the 68-pin to 50-pin cable is properly configured to assure that the eighteen truncated lines are properly terminated. Cable Lengths Observe SCSI cable maximum lengths; - 3 meters (9.8 feet) for the single-ended bus (remember, this is a fast device) - 25 meters (82 feet) for the differential bus.

Theory of Operation Picker Picker The picker in this jukebox is capable of holding two disk cartridges at once. Its two thumbs can be addressed in two ways: • Address the picker in single-picker mode, • Address the picker in dual-picker mode. Single-picker Mode In single-picker mode, the picker is addressed as a single element number.
Theory of Operation Optical Drive Mechanism Optical Drive Mechanism Figure 6-8 provides an overview of the optical drive mechanism. Figure 6-8 Optical Drive Functional Diagram Controller The controller is a highly-specialized integrated circuit that handles SCSI control, data buffering, and encode/decode. The data buffer function provides a buffer to match transfers to and from the host computer and the optical disk.
Theory of Operation Optical Drive Mechanism decodes the various commands and messages on the SCSI bus and instructs the drive to take appropriate action. The encode/decode function encodes and decodes data for read and write transfers. During a write function, user data is sent via the SCSI bus. The encoder converts the parallel data into an encoded serial bit stream that includes all the format and error correction features required to meet the ANSI and ISO specifications.

Theory of Operation Optical Drive Mechanism number, and a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC). The error threshold is determined by the number of sectors found “good.” The other error threshold of interest pertains to the degree of error correction required on the data. The error correction code (ECC) used causes parity bytes to be written following the user data.
Page 217
Theory of Operation Optical Drive Mechanism After an overforce shutdown occurs, the jukebox analyzes the situation, self-calibrates, and attempts a retry • Sense of touch: Sense of touch is the process where actual force used is compared to the recommended force for each move. The jukebox uses this information to detect errors or qualify moves.
