Making a SCSI Connection
If your computer supports SCSI, you can achieve high-speed data transfer
using the optional SS-E300 SCSI cable available separately from Nikon.
This section describes how to set your camera’s SCSI ID and how to
connect your camera to a computer using the SS-E300.
Setting the Camera’s SCSI ID
Before connecting the COOLPIX 300 to your computer using the optional
SCSI cable, you will need to check that the camera’s SCSI settings are
compatible with such other SCSI devices as may be attached to your
computer. Select
INTERFACE
from the second page of the COOLPIX
300’s setup menu.
The following window will be displayed.
Using the stylus, highlight an ID number for the COOLPIX 300 that does
conflict with other devices that are already connected to the computer’s
SCSI chain.
As the ID numbers “0” and “7” are often assigned to the host
computer or one of the computer’s drives, it is recommended that the ID
number you choose for your camera be between “1” and “6” (in the case of
Macintosh computers, be aware that in most cases “0” has already been
assigned to the internal hard disk, “3” to the CD-ROM drive, and “7” to the
computer’s CPU).
