NWS-1510/1530/1580
The NEWS system employs the SCSI (Small Computer System Interface)
bus for connection between the workstation and its peripheral devices
such as NWP-532. The SCSI bus is an 8-bit parallel interface bus
specified by ANSI standard X3.131-1986, allowing connection of up to
eight SCSI controllers per system. In the NEWS system, each peripheral
device has one SCSI controller. In addition to the workstation itself, the
built-in hard disk drive has one controller.
Each controller has a unique SCSI bus address so as to prevent errors in
daisy chain connections. When using more than one peripheral device,
follow instructions so as to avoid address duplication.
