Setting Hardware Termination

If you are using the PERC 3/DC for clustering, you must use hardware
termination. Otherwise, software termination may be used. The headers
used for SCSI termination are:

• J2 Termination Enable is a three-pin header that specifies control of

the SCSI termination for channel 0.

• J3 Termination Enable is a three-pin header that specifies control of

the SCSI termination for channel 1.

• J5 Termination Enable is a three-pin header that specifies control of

the SCSI termination for channel 2.

• J7 Termination Enable is a three-pin header that specifies control of

the SCSI termination for channel 3.
