4-23 s Turn on an external SCSI device before turning on power to the workstation. This enables the system board controller to recognize the external SCSI device. When an external SCSI device is connected to the external SCSI connector on the rear panel of the workstation, that device becomes the end of the SCSI chain and must be terminated. CAUTION: Do not route cables near the air intake to the power supply. Cables routed in this manner may block airflow to the power supply causing it to overheat. Using the SCSI Cable The following SCSI cable is included with your workstation (available on select models): 1 Figure 4-16. SCSI cable NOTE: The SCSI cable included with your workstation may look slightly different than the one pictured. The SCSI cable illustrated above supports up to 4 SCSI devices and comes with a terminator 1 on the end. NOTE: If you are installing a narrow SCSI device, you will need to attach a 68- to 50-pin SCSI adapter to the narrow SCSI device. For additional information about installing optional SCSI devices, refer to the documentation included with the device option kit or contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
