Which Scsi Interface Card; Choosing A Scsi Id Number - AGFA 1200 Owner's Manual

Which SCSI Interface Card

Arcus 1200 requires a SCSI interface to work with your Macintosh. If your Macintosh does not have
a SCSI interface card or built-in interface, contact your dealer.
Adaptec™ products are recommended to use together with your Arcus 1200.

Note: If you use an external SCSI-card, consult the documentation supplied with your interface
card. This will tell you how to install the card.

Choosing a SCSI ID Number

Before you connect your Arcus 1200 to your Macintosh, you have to find out which SCSI ID
numbers are already assigned and which numbers are free. You can find the SCSI ID Checker in
the Utilities folder inside the Agfa FotoLook folder after you have installed the software. You can
use the SCSI ID Checker to verify if your scanner is part of your SCSI chain. Here you can also find
out which SCSI ID numbers are already assigned and which numbers are free.
1 Double-click the SCSI ID Checker icon.
A dialog box appears with a list of the SCSI ID numbers in your Macintosh computer.
Your Macintosh always occupies ID 7, its internal hard disk usually occupies ID 0 or ID 1 and
CD ROM usually occupies ID 3. If your Macintosh is equipped with 2 SCSI-busses, the button
Next Bus allows you to switch busses.
2 Check if SCSI ID number 2 is free.
Your Arcus 1200 is preset to ID 2.
3 If SCSI ID number 2 is free, go to instruction 4.
