Connecting an External SCSI Accessory

NOTE Setting Up and Using Your HP Visualize Linux Workstation Connecting an External SCSI Accessory Connecting an External SCSI Accessory An external SCSI device can be connected as follows: 1. You should assign an unused SCSI ID to the device. SCSI IDs range from 0 to 15 for wide 16-bit SCSI devices. Generally, the SCSI ID 0 is reserved for the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI ID 7 is reserved for the SCSI controller (the default for narrow and wide SCSI devices). You don't need to set a SCSI ID for Plug and Play SCSI devices (SCSI devices that support the SCAM protocol). 2. Make sure the SCSI device is terminated correctly-either internally or by a terminating resistor (refer to the manual provided with the SCSI device). 3. Connect the SCSI device to your HP VISUALIZE Linux Workstation's external 16-bit SCSI connector with a shielded SCSI cable. Step 3: Connect SCSI device to your workstation Step 2: Make sure the SCSI device is terminated Chapter 1 7

Connecting an External SCSI Accessory
Connecting an External SCSI Accessory
An external SCSI device can be connected as follows:
1.
You should assign an unused SCSI ID to the device. SCSI IDs range
from 0 to 15 for wide 16-bit SCSI devices. Generally, the SCSI ID 0 is
reserved for the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI ID 7 is reserved
for the SCSI controller (the default for narrow and wide SCSI
devices).
NOTE
You don’t need to set a SCSI ID for Plug and Play SCSI devices (SCSI
devices that support the SCAM protocol).
2.
Make sure the SCSI device is terminated correctly—either internally
or by a terminating resistor (refer to the manual provided with the
SCSI device).
3.
Connect the SCSI device to your HP V
