If the last device in the chain has an internal terminator, disconnect the
device and connect the PowerBook before it in the SCSI chain.
10 Turn on the PowerBook by pressing the Power key.
After a few seconds a SCSI icon appears on the screen, showing the ID
number you assigned in step 3.
11 Turn on the other SCSI devices in the chain, if any.
12 Turn on the other computer.
The PowerBook appears as a hard disk icon on the screen of the computer
you connected it to. You can now transfer and use files as if the Macintosh
PowerBook were an external disk drive.
WARNING
If you do not see the SCSI icon, and the computer starts
normally or displays an error message, press the Power key to shut down
(if you can) and then immediately disconnect your computer from the
SCSI chain. (If you can’t choose Shut Down, try pressing the reset
button. If you cannot shut down your Macintosh PowerBook, you
should disconnect the cable anyway, or you may lose information.) Then
go back and repeat steps 5 through 9, making sure to use the proper
cables.
You may not be able to have password protection turned on in the
Password Security control panel while using your PowerBook in SCSI
disk mode. Turn password protection off if you experience problems.
See “How do I turn password security on and off” in the “Setting
Options” topic area of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h)
menu.
WARNING
Always shut down the PowerBook before connecting or
disconnecting the SCSI disk adapter cable. Connecting the adapter cable
while the computer is turned on can damage the computer.
