Connecting your computer as a hard disk
Before making any connections, you need to assign a unique SCSI ID number
to the PowerBook. (The unique ID number allows the computer to
communicate with several connected devices.)
1Make sure the password protection feature is turned off in the Password Security
control panel.
2Choose Control Panels from the Apple (
K
) menu of your Macintosh PowerBook
computer.
3 Open the PowerBook Setup control panel.
4In the SCSI disk mode section of the control panel, click the ID number you want
to assign.
If you are connecting the Macintosh PowerBook to an existing SCSI chain,
make sure to give it an ID number different from those of the other devices.
(Many devices include an ID number indicator on the back panel.)
5Close the PowerBook Setup control panel.
6Hold down the Power (
P
) key on the PowerBook until you see the Shut Down dialog
box.
7Click Shut Down to turn the PowerBook off.
8Shut down the computer you are connecting to, and turn off any other devices in the
SCSI chain.
9Connect the small connector on the Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter to the SCSI port on
your PowerBook.
