Connection Tips

• When you connect or disconnect a SCSI device, make sure all SCSI devices have their
AC power switched OFF.
• Always make SCSI connections firmly, connecting the clips or tightening the screws
that secure cables and terminators. Most problems with SCSI devices are connection
problems along the SCSI chain.
• Some devices, such as the ProPalette, have two SCSI ports. The cable can be connected
to either port without affecting the performance of your equipment.
• Each device on a SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID number. These numbers are
described in the following section.
• Wherever a 50-to-50 pin cable is required, be sure to use a cable which meets the
SCSI-2 specification, such as an Apple cable.
• If you are using a PC, the ProPalette can be connected to two host computers at once;
one via the parallel connector and one via the SCSI connector. The recorder will image
in the order the signal is received.
