Addendum for D-160 Version 2.0

Connecting a SCSI device

You may now use a SCSI device (removable or fixed) as the current drive. This section explains how to connect
a SCSI device as the current drive, and provides some guidelines. Follow the guidelines below to learn how to use
SCSI devices correctly. For more information on the type of SCSI devices that can be used as the current drive,
refer to page 3 "List of SCSI drive and media checked for function" in this Manual.

Connections

You can connect a SCSI device to the D-160 Version 2.0 in one of three configurations:

1. Using one SCSI device as the current drive

2. Adding a SCSI device when an E-IDE hard disk is already installed

3. Connecting a backup SCSI device to the current SCSI device
1. Using one SCSI device as the current drive
As shown in the diagram, connect a SCSI device to the SCSI terminal on the D-160 Version 2.0. Be sure to install
a SCSI terminator on another SCSI terminal on the SCSI device. (If the SCSI device uses a termination switch, be
sure to turn it on.) You can connect only one SCSI device as the current drive. (You may connect an additional
SCSI device as a backup drive.) When you turn on the power to the D-160 and the SCSI device, the D-160 will
recognize the connected SCSI device as the current drive.

<Notes on setting the SCSI ID number of the SCSI device (IMPORTANT!!)>
Select any number from 1 to 5 EXCEPT "6" for the ID number of the SCSI device. (ID number "6" should be used for a backup
SCSI device.) Earlier versions of the D-160 automatically recognized the ID number set for the backup SCSI device. Therefore,
no such restriction was necessary. However, due to a version update, a SCSI device can now be used as a current drive, and
this restriction must apply.
2. Adding a SCSI device when an E-IDE hard disk is already installed
Connect a SCSI device to the SCSI terminal on the D-160 Version 2.0. Follow the steps described above to install
a SCSI terminator and set the ID number. When you turn on the power to two current drives and the D-160, the
D-160 will recognize the connected E-IDE hard disk as the current drive. If you wish to use the SCSI device as
the current drive, use the [Drive Sel.?] menu in Setup mode to switch the current drive.
