Installing the SCSI Cable in Systems with a New Slave EDR

The following assumes that you have upgraded a Profile system by adding a Slave
EDR board. In this procedure you will connect a SCSI cable between the SCSI
Backplane board and the SCSI C connector on the new Slave EDR board.

The PCI Interconnect board, which connects over the top of the Master and Slave
EDR boards, must be removed to install the SCSI cable on the Slave EDR board.

Table 2 lists all the SCSI cable connections for a Profile system with a Master
EDR and a Slave EDR installed.

NOTE: The Master and Slave EDR boards in your system may not be installed
in the same board slots as those shown in this procedure, however, your SCSI
cable connections must be the same as shown in Table 2
.
