plan to attach external SCSI devices, you must install an optional SCSI PCI adapter and order additional SCSI cables. To select and order the correct cables for use with external devices, contact your IBM reseller or IBM marketing representative. For information about the maximum length of a SCSI cable between the terminated ends of the cable, refer to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) SCSI standards. Adhering to these standards will help ensure that the server operates correctly. Setting SCSI IDs Each SCSI device connected to a SCSI controller must have a unique SCSI ID. This ID enables the SCSI controller to identify the device and ensure that different devices on the same SCSI channel do not attempt to transfer data simultaneously. SCSI devices that are connected to different SCSI channels can have duplicate SCSI IDs. To install external SCSI devices, you must first install an optional SCSI PCI adapter. Refer to the information that is provided with the device for instructions to set its SCSI ID. If a SCSI adapter is installed in the server, you can use its 68-pin SCSI connector to connect different types of SCSI devices. The following table shows the pin-number assignments for the SCSI connector. 34 1 68 35 Table 15. 68-pin SCSI connector pin-number assignments Pin Signal Pin Signal 1 +Data 12 35 -Data 12 2 +Data 13 36 -Data 13 3 +Data 14 37 -Data 14 4 +Data 15 38 -Data 15 5 +Data P1 39 -Data P1 6 +Data 0 40 -Data 0 7 +Data1 41 -Data 1 8 +Data 2 42 -Data 2 9 +Data 3 43 -Data 3 10 +Data 4 44 -Data 4 11 +Data 5 45 -Data 5 12 +Data 6 46 -Data 6 13 +Data 7 47 -Data 7 14 +Data P 48 -Data P 15 Ground 49 Ground 16 DIFFSENS 50 Ground 17 Term power 51 Term power 18 Term power 52 Term power Installing options 75

to
attach
external
SCSI
devices,
you
must
install
an
optional
SCSI
PCI
adapter
and
order
additional
SCSI
cables.
To
select
and
order
the
correct
cables
for
use
with
external
devices,
contact
your
IBM
reseller
or
IBM
marketing
representative.
For
information
about
the
maximum
length
of
a
SCSI
cable
between
the
terminated
ends
of
the
cable,
refer
to
the
American
National

Institute
(ANSI)
SCSI
standards.
Adhering
to
these
standards
will
help
ensure
that
the
server
operates
correctly.
Setting
SCSI
IDs
Each
SCSI
device
connected
to
a
SCSI
controller
must
have
a
unique
SCSI
ID.
This
ID
enables
the
SCSI
controller
to
identify
the
device
and
ensure
that
different
devices
on
the
same
SCSI
channel
do
not
attempt
to
transfer
data
simultaneously.
SCSI
devices
that
are
connected
to
different
SCSI
channels
can
have
duplicate
SCSI
IDs.
To
install
external
SCSI
devices,
you
must
first
install
an
optional
SCSI
PCI
adapter.
Refer
to
the
information
that
is
provided
with
the
device
for
instructions
to
set
its
SCSI
ID.
If
a
SCSI
adapter
is
installed
in
the
server,
you
can
use
its
68-pin
SCSI
connector
to
connect
different
types
of
SCSI
devices.
The
following
table
shows
the
pin-number
assignments
for
the
SCSI
connector.
