SCSI Bus Interface Options

SCSI Controller ID—(Default: 7) Sets the SCSI ID for the SCSI
■
card. The Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D is set at 7, which gives it
the highest priority on the SCSI bus. We recommend that you
do not change this setting.
SCSI Controller Parity—(Default: Enabled) SCSI cards perform
■
parity checking to verify the accuracy of data transfer on the
SCSI bus. Most currently available SCSI devices support parity
checking. However, if a device on the SCSI bus does not
support parity checking, disable this option. This setting
changes parity for the entire SCSI controller and the way it
looks at each ID on that controller. You cannot mix devices that
do and do not support parity checking on the same SCSI bus.
SCSI Controller Termination—(Default: Automatic)
■
Determines the termination setting for the SCSI card. The
default setting is Automatic, which allows the SCSI card to
adjust the termination as needed. We recommend that you do
not change this setting.
Boot Device Configuration Options – BBS Systems Only
Select Master SCSI Controller—Enables the user to select the boot
SCSI card. The master SCSI card does not necessarily have to be the
