Connecting an External SCSI Accessory

Your PC Workstation is equipped with an UltraWide 16-bit SCSI
connector for external SCSI devices.

When an external SCSI device is connected, the UltraWide 16-bit SCSI
controller automatically switches to non-Ultra mode (maximum
capacity of 20 MBs per second).

An external SCSI device is connected as follows:

1 You should assign an unused SCSI address to the accessory. SCSI

addresses range from 0 to 15 for wide 16-bit SCSI. The SCSI
address 0 is reserved for the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI
address 7 is reserved for SCSI controller (the default for narrow and
wide SCSI devices).

Refer to the manual provided with the SCSI accessory for
instructions on selecting a SCSI address.

NOTE

You don’t need to set a SCSI address for Plug and Play SCSI devices
(SCSI devices which support the SCAM protocol).

2 Make sure the SCSI accessory is terminated correctly—either

internally or by a terminating resistor (refer to the manual provided
with the SCSI accessory).

Make sure the SCSI
accessory is terminated
