Setting the INT Assignment

You must use PCI INT A setting in order to properly assign the card's inter-
rupt. On the PCI-SC200, you assign the INT by setting jumper JP1 or JP2.
The default setting for the card already is INT A, so you do not need to
change the setting to use the PCI-SC200 with this motherboard.

Terminator Settings

SCSI devices are connected together in a “chain” by cables. Internal de-
vices connect to the PCI-SC200 with a fifty-pin flat ribbon cable. External
devices connect to the external port with a SCSI-2 cable. If there are more
than one internal or external devices, additional devices are connected with
cables to form a “daisy chain.” The SCSI chain must be “terminated” at
both ends, or the devices in the chain will not work properly.

Many SCSI devices use a set of terminating resistors to terminate the de-
vice. The PCI-SC200 has “active” termination that you set using jumper
JP5. If you need to terminate the PCI-SC200, you do it by setting the jumper.
The are two settings, "terminated" and "not terminated," as shown below.
