Setting the SCSI ID

A SCSI ID is a number assigned to each SCSI device in your daisy
chain to differentiate the devices from one another.
The SCSI ID for Microtek scanners is set at default to 6. You won't
need to change the SCSI ID on your scanner unless another SCSI
device on your system (such as a tape drive or CD-ROM drive) is
using the same number.
If you are connecting the scanner to the Adaptec AVA-1502E
interface card that was supplied with your scanner, you don't need
to change the SCSI ID; simply go to the next section. The SCSI ID
needs to be changed only in the following situations:
• If you are installing two Microtek scanners using the interface
card. In this case, the SCSI ID of one of the scanners must be
changed to avoid conflicts.
• If you are installing a third-party ASPI card with other SCSI
devices already connected to the ASPI card. In this case,
change the SCSI ID of your Microtek scanner.
To set the SCSI ID number, look for the push-button selector, and
use a small pin or a small screwdriver to select the SCSI ID.
