Using a SCSI Connection to the Scanner

SCSI Cables

You can connect the scanner to the computer with a SCSI 2 cable not more than
19.7 feet (6 meters) long. If you're connecting multiple SCSI devices, the total length
of the SCSI bus (cables) should not exceed 9.8 feet (3 meters).

Connecting to a SCSI Interface

Before you connect the scanner, you must have an ASPI-compliant SCSI 2 interface
board installed in your computer (Adaptec
recommended).
If you purchased a SCSI board as an option for the computer, follow the
manufacturer's instructions to install both the board and its driver.
You may also need to change the scanner's
SCSI ID setting before you connect it to
your computer. If you have another SCSI
device that uses SCSI ID 2, turn the
scanner off and turn the SCSI ID dial on
the back of the scanner to a new number.

Using a SCSI Connection to the Scanner
Adaptec Power Domain 2940UW and 2940U2W SCSI boards for the
Macintosh are designed for hard drives and are not compatible with
scanners.
Choose a number that doesn't conflict with the ID number of other
SCSI devices. Don't use SCSI ID 0, 1, or 7. If your Macintosh has a
built-in CD-ROM, don't use SCSI ID 3.
