Step 6 - SCSI ID Selection Switch

The SCSI ID Selection Switch sets the
drive’s SCSI identification number. Each
device connected to your ultra wide SCSI
card must have a unique SCSI
identification number. The sixteen (16)
possible identification numbers are 0
through 15. When you select a number
for the Glyph drive, be sure that no
other ultra wide SCSI device, or your ultra wide SCSI card
(which is usually set to 7), has the same number.

Setting the ID Switch

Based on the previous discussion, you are now ready to set
the SCSI ID Selector Switch on your new Glyph drive. The
Glyph tabletop’s SCSI ID Switch is located over the power
button, behind the sliding door on the front of the unit.
The Glyph Hot Swap Tabletop’s ID Switch is found on the
back of the enclosure, above the power cable input. The
Glyph rack mounted drive SCSI ID Switch(s) is(are) on the
front panel of the unit.

If you found that your ultra wide SCSI card did have one
or more ultra wide SCSI devices connected, make sure that
you select a unique SCSI ID number for the Glyph drive
that is not currently in use. Push the plus or minus button
on the SCSI ID selector switch to increment or decrement
the SCSI ID number. Once it is set, you will not have to
change it again unless you add more devices to your ultra
wide SCSI bus.

You must turn off the power to both the computer &
Glyph drive when switching SCSI ID numbers and then
restart in order for the drive to recognize the SCSI ID
change.
