Installing the Host Adapter
Setting Jumpers
If you need to change jumper block settings, do it
now before you replace the chassis cover. See
Section 8, Jumper Block Settings, for details.
In most cases, you do not have to change the default
jumper settings. Here are situations in which you
should change the settings:
If another Adaptec SCSI host adapter is already
installed in your computer, you may need to
change the interrupt channel of the AVA-1505. If
you change the setting from the default of 11 (pin
pair I11) you may also need to change options in
the software (see Section 6, Software Installation).
If you change the default port address by install-
ing the extra jumper on pin pair ALT, you may
also need to change options in the software (see
Section 6, Software Installation).
