Wangdat 3200

2007-12-25 8:44:00

I've now successfully gotten our Wangdat 3200SE working under SunOS 4.1.3.

The switch settings on this drive are:

                                                        Default Mine

  

        SW3-1 Buffered Mode OFF OFF

         SW3-2 Compression Enable ON OFF

         SW3-3 SCSI-1/SCSI-2 Protocol OFF ON

         SW3-4 Cassette Load/Unload Option OFF ON

         SW3-5 SCSI Bus Parity Enable ON ON

         SW3-6,7,8 (RESERVED) OFF

I cobbled up the following entry in st_conf.c:

{

        "WangDAT Model 3200", 7, "WangDAT", ST_TYPE_WANGDAT, 10240,

        (ST_QIC | ST_VARIABLE | ST_BSF | ST_BSR | ST_LONG_ERASE | ST_AUTODEN_OVERRIDE),

        5000, 5000,

        { 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },

        { 0, 0, 0, 0 }

}

and I added the following entry to st_def.h:

#define ST_TYPE_WANGDAT 0x2A /* WangDAT */

I am not able to get the drive to automatically switch to compressed

mode by writing to /dev/rst9 instead of /dev/rst1. I think some further

magic is needed in the st_conf entry in order to make this work.

Thanks to Matt Hofener for the info on switch settings.
