Again check the documentation - it should tell you. If so you should find gemini
have a park program.

I think the 20MByte drives did not need park and I suspect the ramped seek
rodimes don't as they are voice coil controlled. Stepper motor drives generally
benefit from park.

You need to check with the documentation to be sure. I don't remember having
to write a park program for the 20MByte.
