ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Introduction ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Copyright (c) Robert Muchsel 1993,1994
All rights reserved.
The OS/2 2.1 audio filter driver, CDU8002.FLT, will enable the audio mode of
your SONY SCSI CD-ROM 8002 (also known as Apple CD-150).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Disclaimer ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This program is based on undocumented data structures. An error in this base
device driver or in software which uses it can cause your system to lock up and
require rebooting, resulting in data loss.
The user is advised always to make adequate Back Ups of all valuable files or
data. Because he can have no control over how this program is used the author
accepts no liability for any damage!
Copyright (c) Robert Muchsel 1993,1994
All rights reserved.
The author disclaims all warranties as to this software, whether express or
implied, including without limitation any implied warranties of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, functionality, data
integrity or protection, in so far as permitted by applicable legislation.
All trademarks are property of their respective owners and appear for

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Shareware ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Writing this driver has taken a long time and lots of work (because neither
Apple nor Sony could/wanted to provide technical information).
Therefore this driver is shareware. This means you may try the software for 40
days. After the trial period, you must pay a small fee if you want to continue
using the software.
For detailled information on how to become a registered user, see the
registration section.
You are encouraged to copy and pass on the unregistered shareware version of
this program, if the program is distributed in its original form (complete,
unmodified).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. Installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Warning: It is recommended you have an OS/2 boot disk ready, just in case the
system locks up during the boot process and you want to remove the driver.
Installation is easy (you don't need to boot from your installation disks to
install the driver):
1. Ensure data mode works. If not, install a generic SCSI CD-ROM using System
Setup.
2. Edit your CONFIG.SYS file using the OS/2 System Editor:
E CONFIG.SYS
o If present, remove the line BASEDEV=SONYCDS1.FLT, since neither your
CDU-8002 nor CDU8002.FLT are compatible with this driver.
o Add the following line:
BASEDEV=CDU8002.FLT
(No subdirectory name!)
3. Copy the file CDU8002.FLT to your OS/2 system directory:
COPY CDU8002.FLT x:\OS2\*.* /V
(where x is your OS/2 boot drive)
4. Shutdown and reboot your computer.
If all goes well and your CD-ROM is powered on, the driver will beep twice and
display a rather large shareware information screen.
This screen is the only limitation of the shareware version.
Note: If no SONY SCSI CD-ROM is present, the driver won't do anything.
This driver may work with other Apple SCSI-CD ROMs made by Sony (?)
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5. Technical information on the CDU-8002 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The CDU-8002 is not compatible with the CDU-541. If you exchange the EPROM
chips you will soon note that data mode does not work properly.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. Compatibility ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 7. MSDOS ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Trantor Systems' driver works (call Trantor Systems, not me!).
Note: You do not need an extra driver for MDOS sessions under OS/2.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 8. Registration ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
