NOTE

If you determine that there are conflicts among SCSI IDs that are
currently in use by your system and peripherals you will be placing on
the bus, plan to do the following steps, as they apply to your situation.

• If you choose to change IDs used by internal devices, change the IDs

at this time (before you turn the host system OFF).

• If you choose to change the IDs of external peripherals (other than

this jukebox) you may want to change those IDs at this time.

• If you choose to change the IDs in this jukebox (or an additional

jukebox of this model), you can do this during the next set of steps
“Connecting Power, Adjusting IDs, and Turning the Jukebox On”.
Remember, if you are installing two libraries of this type, they will
have the same default IDs (3, 4, and 5).

1. Ensure that the mailslot shipping bracket and the shipping screw are

removed.

NOTE

If you will be changing SCSI IDs in the host, finish changing them before
doing the next step. See the previous NOTE.

2. Ensure that your host computer is OFF and the jukebox standby/on

switch is in the STANDBY position.

The jukebox standby switch is in STANDBY when the STANDBY
side of the switch is depressed. The switch is shown by “2” on
Figure 1-1.

3. Connect SCSI cables between the host, the jukebox, and the other

peripheral (perhaps another jukebox) as shown in Figure 1-5.

4. Depending on your bus type, put a single-ended, low-voltage, or

SE/LVD terminator on the SCSI connector of the last peripheral on
the bus.

CAUTION

Do not use a high-voltage differential terminator.

5. Go to the next steps, “Connecting Power, Adjusting IDs, and Turning

the Jukebox On”.
