Settings for recording

This section explains how to make the necessary settings for hard disk record-
ing. Be sure to make these settings before performing hard disk recording.

Hard disk connections and settings

Up to 7 hard disks can be connected using SCSI cables. Use hard disks with a
maximum capacity of 4 Gbytes and an average seek time of 11.5 ms or less.
The TRINITY uses a D-Sub 25-pin connector. The connectors of different hard
disks may vary, so read the manual of your hard disk to check the type of con-
nector it has before purchasing an appropriate SCSI cable.
Turn the power OFF for the TRINITY and the hard disk(s).
1
The power of the TRINITY and any hard disk(s) must be OFF before con-
necting or disconnecting SCSI cables or changing the ID number of a hard
disk.
On the hard disk, set an ID number in the range of 0–6.
2
If you are connecting two or more hard disks, set them to different ID numbers
so that they can be distinguished.
For details on setting the ID number, refer to the manual for your hard disk.
Setting two or more hard disks to the same ID will cause malfunctions or
loss of data.
Connect the SCSI connector of the TRINITY to the SCSI connector of the hard disk.
3
If you are connecting two or more hard disks, make sure that the total
length of the cables is less than 6 meters (18 feet).
Terminate the hard disk.
4
If two or more hard disks are connected, terminate the last hard disk in the
chain (the hard disk furthest from the TRINITY).
Even if only one hard disk is connected, that hard disk must be terminated.
Some hard disks require an externally attached terminator. Others have a swit-
chable terminator built-in. Refer to the manual for your hard disk.
