I don't understand your question.
If the CDROM environment variable is set to a device name, cdcontrol will 
try to open that device.  This is documented in the cdcontrol man page.
If the CDROM environment variable is not set, a default device
name of of /dev/cd0c is used, unless you override this with the -f flag.
