Installing the Autoloader 19

Connecting the SCSI and Power Cables

To connect the SCSI and power cables to the autoloader, follow these steps:
1. Shut down and turn off the selected server. Turn off all attached accessory

devices, such as printers and other SCSI devices. Remove the power cables

from the server and all attached accessories.

Caution

Failure to remove the power cables from these devices could

result in damage to the autoloader.

2. Attach one end of the SCSI cable (included in the accessory kit) to one of

the connectors on the rear panel of the autoloader.

3. Attach the other end of the SCSI cable to the connector on the SCSI host

adapter or to the connector on the previous device on the SCSI bus.

Note

If the supplied SCSI cable does not fit the connector on your SCSI

host adapter, you either have an incompatible SCSI host adapter

or you need to purchase a cable adapter. Contact your service

representative or your SCSI host adapter manufacturer for

information.
