section

details

the

procedure

for

the

Adaptec

AT

-to

-SCSI

host

adapter.

The

prep-

aration

of

the

consists

of

checking

the

various

on

-board

jumpers,

inserting

the

board

into

a

full-length

AT

compatible

con-

nector,

and

connecting

a

SCSI

cable

from

the

on

-board

connector

to

a

SCSI

target.

The

following

diagram

shows

the

approximate

location

of

the

vari-

ous

customer

configurable

items

on

the

AHA-1540B/1542B.

Listed

after

the

diagram

are

the

functions

of

each

item.

Since

the

AHA-1540B/1542B

is

sensitive

to

static

shock,

it

is

rec-

ommended

that

the

board

is

placed

on

the

anti

-static

bag

in

which

it

came

for

examination

and

jumper

configuration.
