Connect the SCSI bus cable leading from the host adapter to either of the two SCSI connectors. If the tape unit is the last device on the bus, then install a terminator on the
open connector. If the bus continues from the tape drive to another SCSI device, then install a SCSI cable between the open connector and the next device on the bus.
1. Before connecting the tape drive to the host computer system, make sure the drive and system are turned OFF.
2. If you are connecting several devices to the SCSI bus, connect only the drive at this time. Confirm that the host computer system and drive are communicating
correctly before adding additional devices.
3. If the tape drive is the last or only device connected to the SCSI bus, attach the enclosed SCSI terminator to one of the connectors on the back of the drive. Depending
on the terminator supplied, snap the wire cable clamps into place or tighten the screws to secure the terminator.
4. Align the appropriate SCSI cable to its matching connector on the drive, and then carefully connect the cable to avoid bending or damaging the connector pins.
5. Check the SCSI cable and terminator connections and ensure that they are attached correctly and seated firmly.
6. Snap the wire cable clamps or tighten the screws into place to secure the cables.
Step 3: Connecting the Power Cable
