SECTION 1 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
The RL~1/RL02 Disk Drive is a random access mass storage device.
Both drives utilize a removable, single platter top-loading disk cartridge. The RL~IK cartridge provides five million bytes of storage, and the RL~2K cartridge will hold ten million bytes. Up to four RL01 or RL02 Disk Drives may be used per controller to provide up to 40 million bytes of storage for PDP-S, PDP-II, and LSI-ll computer system applications.
The RL01/RL02 Disk Drive (Figure 1-1) is mounted on slides and is 26.6 cm (1~.5 in) high, 63.5 cm (25 in) deep (compatible in width to a 19 inch RETMA rack) and weighs 34 kg (75 lbs).
Operating controls and indicators plus a removable ctir fil':.er are located at the front of the drive. Access to thE:: cartrilige is provided by a lift-up cover incorporating a safety interlock. All servicing can be achieved from the top of the drive or front or rear of the corporate cabinet.
RL~I/RL02 Disk Drives are shipped from the factory as 115 Vac/6~
Hertz units. Field ·change to 230 Vac/50 or 60 Hertz is accomplished by reversing either of two terminal block covers located externally at the rear of the drive. The line cord plug may be cut and replaced with an applicable 23~ Vac .line plug. The RL01/RL02 Disk Drive is UL listed and CSA certified.
Interlocks are provided where the potential exists for damage to the drive, media, operators, or service personnel.
The RL01/RL02 Disk Drive provides high field performance and maintainability. The drive is designed for easy removal and replacement of logic and electromechanical subassemblies to result in an average replacement time of not more than 15 minutes.
Special tools and alignment packs or fixtures are not required for on-site maintenance. Only two adjustments are required under normal service conditions. All logic. modules are placed so that they may be accessed without the use of extenders.
1.1.1 Servo-In-Data Concept
Key to the performance of the RL01/RL~2 is the servo-in-data concept. The concept allows the derivation of head positioning and track counting information from pulses imbedded within the data track. Each read/write head seeking to a desired track becomes its own servo transducer. Data tracks could conceivably be loca ted wi thin a band anywhere on the recordable disk surface as long asthe positioner does not run out of travel limits. Since the heads seek and center on data tracks, environmental problems related to mechanical drift and tolerances become practically nonexistent. Precise head alignment requiring the use of special fixtures is unnecessary.

TYPl
·cal Disk Drive 1/1-21.1.2 Storage Medium
The RL"IK or RL02K Disk Cartridge is a modified 5440 type removable, top-loading, single platter cartridge with 256 discrete data tracks on each of the two reco rd i ng sur faces. The Cil r tr idg e armature plate contains 4" sector slots, defining 40 sectors per track. Servo information (servo-in-data) from which sector and track determinations are made is prerecorded on the cartridge at the factory and cannot be reformatted in the field. Bad sector information is contained on the last data track.
RLelK and RL~2K cartridges are intended as a means of data i nte rchange between compu ter sys tems • Data wr it ten on one RL01 Disk Drive will be readable on any other RL01 drive, and the same is true for any two RL02 drives, provided that both drives have been properly maintained and that the computer systems and controllers are compatible wi th respect to word length. Note, however, that an RunK cartridge cannot be used on an RL02 drive, nor can an RL02K cartridge be used on an RLel drive. While either cartridge will physically fit into either drive, the results of usi.ng the wrong cartridge are unpredictable. The cartridge are color keyed and labeled to help prevent incorrect use.
1.1.3 Mechanical partitioning
Figure 1-2 shows location of the major drive subassemblies and air flow through the drive chassis.
1.1.3.1 Air Flow System - The RUn/RL~2 Disk Drive is desiC)ned to achieve maximum protection of the head/disk interface even in a contaminated environment. The air flow system (Figure 1-2) is separated into a recirculating clean air supply and a cooling air supply. The cooling air is drawn in through the bezel and is exhausted out the rear of the drive by a muffin fan. The recirculating clean air is moved through the duct system by an impeller attached to the spindle drive motor. Before the clean air is recirculated to the disk cartridge, the duct system routes it through a high efficiency filter and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is cooled by the cooling air supply.
1.1.3.2 Air Filter - The absolute air filter is a self-contained throwaway unit. Because of the two air systems, .f.!ti2+~c.e.IJl~D,.t_.,..QJ: ... , the absol ute filter. is on1~~,.Le9.uwLr .. ~~_~.!L,~ ... ~~.I,l.J?'~.s} .. ~.
1.1.3.3 Positioner Assembly - The positioner assembly consists of a ca r r i age, se rvo mo tor wi th capstan and tens ion cable, linea r
tachometer, head load cam, and home switch. The magnetic read/write heads are mounted on the carriage. Figure 1-3 illustrates the principle components of the positioner assembly.
The positioner subplate can be moved laterally to align head access radially to the disk.

Assembly.
The Spindle Assembly comprises a interface hub, the, spindle ground Figure 1-4 shows the Spindle
The sector transducer mounts and aligns itself on the spindle housing.
The disk cartridge interfaces the spindle via a cone located in the center of the spindle, a 14.0 cm (5.5 in) diameter stabilizing hub, and a hold-down magnet.
1.1.3.5 Brush Drive Assembly - The RL01/RL02 Disk Drive has motor-driven cleaning brushes (refer to Figure 1-5) which automatically sweep across the disk surfaces each time the spindle drive motor is started. The brush cycle must be completed and the brushes retracted before the heads will load. In order to prevent damage to the read/write heads and cartridge, the cartridge access cover remains interlocked so that the cartridge cannot be removed in the event that the brushes fail to return to their home position. The brush holder assembly is a field replaceable unit.
1.1.3.6 Read/Write Heads - Each head (Figure 1-6) is made up of a magnetic core structure mounted in a ceramic slider pad and is supported on an arm. Each head is also provided with a flexible cabl e tha t term ina tes wi th a connec to r • When both head s are loaded and positioned with the disk rotating at 2400 I 2% rpm, each head is supported by a boundary layer of air approximately 50 microinches thick. The "up" head is used for reading and writing data on the bottom surface (surface 1) of the disk and the "down"
head is used fo r read ing and wr i t ing data on the top su r face (sur face ") of the disk. Each head is loaded and unload ed from the rotating disk by the force of a cam against the 30 degree ramp in the head arm.
The heads operate at 4.1 megaf1ux-reversa1s per second using the Modified Frequency Modulation (MFM) method for or decoding data. This corresponds to a maximum density bits per inch on the inner track (track 255, decimal).
max imum encoding of 1725
1.1.3.7 Read/Write Board - The read/write board is contained in a subchassis to provide shielding for the logic.
1.1.3.8 Power Panel - The removable rear panel of the drive contains a muffin type fan, I/O connectors, an ac circuit breaker, an RFI filter, the spindle motor capacitor, the ac terminal assembly block and the ac servo module chassis. Refer to Figure 1-7. The ac circuit breaker provides power ON/OFF control for the drive and is normally left in the ON position.

This push on/push off alternating action switch, when depressed, energizes the spindle motor providing the following conditions have been met:
• The disk cartridge has been installed
• The cartr idge protection cover is in place and the cartridge access cover is closed and latched
• All ac and dc voltages are within specifications
• The read/write heads are home
• The brushes are home
When thi s swi tch is rel eased (depressed a second time), the spindle drive motor is deenergized if the read/write heads are not loaded. If the heads are loaded, they are retracted before the spindle drive motor is deenergized. In the event of a main power interrupt and subsequent power restoration, the drive will cycle up again if the switch is depressed since it contains mechanical memory.

Unit Select (O, 1, 2, 3) Switch with RE~DY Indicator
The unit select switch is a cam operated switch which is actuated by inserting a numbered, selectively cammed button.
The switch contacts are binary encoded so the drive interface logic recognizes the matching controller generated drive address code and the corresponding unit select number (O, 1, 2 or 3).
The numbered indicator, when lit, indicates a drive READY condition. This condition exists when:
• The spindle is up to speed
• The brushes are home
• The read/write heads are loaded
• The heads are detented on a specific track
F~ULT Indicator
The FAULT indicator is lit whenever the following fault or error conditions develop in the disk drive:
• Drive Select Error
• Seek Time Out Error
• Write Current in Heads During Sector Time Error
• Loss of System Clock
• Write Protect Error
• Write Data Error
• Spin Error
WRITE PROTect Switch and Indicator
This alternating action push on/push off switch, when de- pressed, sets the d rive in wr i te protect mode whethe r 0 r no t the Write Gate line is asserted (refer to interface line descr i pt ions) • r'f the Wr i te Gate 1 ine is asser ted when WRITE PROTect is on, the drive will generate a Write Gate error
(wh ich will 1 ight F~ULT). The wr i te protec t mode will be immediately removed upon release of the switch.
