About Teac5324 Program

This Teac5324.exe program is an expansion utility exclusively for use 
with the TEAC CD-532E,CD-532EA,CD-532S and CD-524EA CD-ROM drives. 
(Compatible firmware version 3.0A or later must be installed in each 
drive being used.)

This software has the following functions:
1. Drive readout speed setting
2. Selection of the time until spin-down starts
3. Open/close of the tray

Please note that the current version of Teac5324.exe does not support 
simultaneous operation using different data transfer rates (for instance, 
CD-532E and CD-524EA).

For operation details, refer to the Help file installed with the program..


[ How to Install ]
Run the self-extracting file. A folder called "T5324V200" is generated.
Open the folder and launch the SETUP.EXE program.
Once the setup program is completed, click on the Start menu. 
Open "Program" - "Teac" - "CD-ROM Expansion Utility", then launch the 
"CD-ROM Expansion Utility" program.

[ File Configuration after Installation ]
The configuration of the files after installation is as follows 
(when the default folder is selected as the setup destination):

C:\Program Files\TEAC\Teac5324\Teac5324.exe	: Application program
C:\Program Files\TEAC\Teac5324\Teac5324.hlp	: Help file
C:\Windows\Teac5324.ini				: Read CD-DA Speed setting file

[ Changing the Read CD-DA Speed Setting ]
In addition to CD-ROM readout speed setting, you may change the Read CD-DA Speed 
setting by editing the Teac5324.ini file.
This function is recommended for advanced users only. 
If you decide to use it, please pay close attention to the following points:

[1]	Make sure the firmware version of the model being used (CD-532E, 
        CD-532EA, CD-532S, CD-524EA) is 3.0A or later. If not, the Teac5324.exe 
        function will not be available.
[2]	If the read surface of the media is dirty or damaged, the read speed 
        may be slower than that selected.
[3]	When the Read CD-DA Speed is increased, problems such as incorrect 
        data read out may occur. If this happens, reduce the Read CD-DA Speed.
[4]	Teac is not responsible for any consequential, incidental, or indirect 
        damages resulting from changing this setting. Please use this function 
        at your own risk.

[ How to Change the Read CD-DA Speed ]
(1)	After installation is completed, run the Teac5324.exe program. 
        An initial settings file is generated. 
	(C:\Windows\Teac5324.ini)
	Now, quit the Teac5324.exe program
(2)	Using a text editor such as Notepad, open the Teac5324.ini file.
	Change the speed setting parameter.
	(Refer to "How to Edit the File" below.)
	After changing the parameter, save the Teac5324.ini file by 
	overwriting it.
(3)	Run the Teac5324.exe program again.
	Quit the Teac5324.exe program and restart Windows.
	The changed settings file will now be in effect.

	The changed contents are written directly to your CD-ROM drive and 
	stored in memory.
	To change the setting again, repeat steps (2) and (3).
