Setting the SCSI Address Switches
Note
For optimum system performance, your
system
disk SCSI address
should always be set to the highest SCSI address available
(usually address number 6).
Each device on a SCSI bus requires a unique SCSI address (0-6). (The SCSI
interface card in the host computer is normally set to 7.) The SCSI address
switches on the mass storage system rear panel of the (see Figure 1-2) allow
an address to be selected for each SCSI device in your mass storage system.
Set each three-position DIP switch for each device as desired. Thble 1-1 shows
one the settings and resultant address for one of the switches. Set a different
address for each installed device. Make sure that no two devices have the
same SCSI address. You must cycle power for new address switch settings to be
recognized.
