Connecting an External SCSI Accessory

Connecting an External SCSI Accessory
An external SCSI device can be connected as follows:
1. You should assign an unused SCSI ID to the device. SCSI IDs range
from 0 to 15 for wide 16-bit SCSI devices. Generally, the SCSI ID 0 is
reserved for the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI ID 7 is reserved
for the SCSI controller (the default for narrow and wide SCSI
devices).
Depending on your operating system, you may need to set a SCSI ID for
Plug and Play SCSI devices (SCSI devices that support the SCAM
protocol).
2. Make sure the SCSI device is terminated correctly—either internally
or by a terminating resistor (refer to the manual provided with the
SCSI device).
3. Connect the SCSI device to your Personal Workstation's external 16-
bit SCSI connector with a shielded SCSI cable.
