  • Page 14: Using With Other Scsi Devices

    Since the SCSI standard supports connection to one computer and up to seven SCSI devices (including SCSI devices built into the computer), you can use several CD-10 card drives in series or can connect the CD-10 drive to other SCSI device(s).

  • Page 15: Setting The Scsi Id

    4-3 Setting the SCSI ID The SCSI ID is a unique number assigned to each SCSI device. Therefore, two devices must not have the same ID number. The SCSI ID is independent of the order of physical device connection. Note that SCSI IDs may have been previously assigned to a disk drive, CD-ROM drive, or other built-in devices in the computer.

    NOTE: • The DOS format is used by IBM PC/AT compatible computers and Minolta’s digital still cameras. The files stored on a DOS-for- matted PC card are DOS files. • Mac-PC Manager Lite is able to read DOS text files. However, DOS uses CR (carriage return) as well as LF (line field) while Macintosh only uses CR.
