Termination
Terminators prevent SCSI signals from being reflected off the last device in the
chain.
The SCSI terminator switch should be set to “ON” if the CRW8824S is the
last device on the internal SCSI chain. If the CRW8824S is not the last device on
the internal SCSI chain, the shunt on the Terminator jumper switch should be
removed.
