Overland Data (800.424.7437) bought Cipher sometime in the late 80s.
Conner (800.526.6637) bought Overland's cartridge tape business shortly
thereafter. Now, Conner is no longer extant, and Seagate offers support on
their hardware.

Jumpers are thus:

J5 : :
    1 2

1- Self test
2- auto-loading (in = disabled)

J4 : : : : :
    1 2 3 4 5

1- termination power (in = bus supplies; out = drive supplies)
2- parity (in = enabled)
3- ID 4
4- ID 2
5- ID 1

I think I still have some of the smaller, mechanical parts lying about
for spares.
