Troubleshooting
Most problems with the SlimSCSI 1480 result from errors in prepar-
ing and connecting the SCSI devices to it. If you have problems,
check the items below.
Note:
If you have problems with a specific SCSI device when
other SCSI devices are working correctly, contact the manu-
facturer of the problem device for troubleshooting
information.
General Hardware Troubleshooting
Be sure all SCSI cables and power cables are properly con-
nected and all SCSI devices are powered.
Be sure the SlimSCSI 1480 is firmly seated in the CardBus slot.
Be sure each SCSI device has a different SCSI ID.
Be sure the last (or only) SCSI device on the SCSI bus is
terminated.
Be sure at least one SCSI device connected to the SlimSCSI 1480
supplies termination power to the SCSI bus. Otherwise, the
SCSI devices will not work correctly. (Some devices have a
switch to enable or disable termination power. See the device
documentation for more information.)
The SlimSCSI 1480 terminates itself but does not provide ter-
mination power to other devices on the SCSI bus (the adapter
would need to draw this power from the portable PC's battery,
which would not be desirable).
