PDX 208 Instruction Manual 2-9
Connecting Two PDX208s to One 4-Channel Profile
Figure 2-9 shows two PDX208s connected to a 4-channel Profile. If connecting to a
PDR100 Profile, see the configuration stickers below the rear panel slots for the
locations of the Disk Recorder boards. To connect two PDX208s to a 4-channel
Profile, refer to Figure 2-6 and Figure 2-9 and:
1. Connect a SCSI cable from the SCSI A bus on the Master Disk Recorder board
(Slot J9) to one of the SCSI Bus 2 connectors on the first PDX208.
2. Connect a SCSI cable from the second SCSI Bus 2 connector on the first PDX208
to one of the SCSI Bus 1 connectors on the first PDX208.
3. Connect a Terminator to the unused SCSI Bus 1 connector on the first PDX208.
4. Connect a SCSI cable from the SCSI C bus on the Slave Disk Recorder board (Slot
J10) to one of the SCSI Bus 1 connectors on the second PDX208.
5. Connect a SCSI cable from the second SCSI Bus 1 connector on the second
PDX208 to one of the SCSI Bus 2 connectors on the second PDX208.
6. Connect a Terminator to the unused SCSI Bus 2 connector on the second PDX208.
