ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER
6. Inspect your internal cabling one last time to make sure it is attached
correctly everywhere, then replace the PC’s cover. If you are attaching any
external SCSI devices to the Adapter, go on to Section 4.2.2; otherwise,
reconnect all external devices to the PC and plug the PC back in.

If you are connecting external SCSI devices, make sure that (a) you have enough
external SCSI cables to accomodate all of your devices (the Adapter does not come
with any external cables), (b) the total length of the cables is not too great, and
(c) the cables have the appropriate characteristics (see Sections 3.3 and 4.2.1).
If your external devices have micro D68 connectors like the Adapter itself does,
you can use our External Ultra2 LVD SCSI Cable (product code EVMS25).
1. Prepare each external SCSI peripheral for installation: configure the device’s
SCSI ID and termination (terminate the last external device attached to the
bus). For instructions, see the device’s documentation as well as Sections 3.2
through 3.4.
2. Plug the connector at one end of the first external SCSI cable into the
Adapter’s external SCSI connector. These connectors will be keyed for proper
cable insertion.
3. Plug the connector at the other end of the external SCSI cable into one of
the SCSI connectors on the first external SCSI peripheral, following the
instructions for doing this in the peripheral’s documentation.
4. To connect other external SCSI devices, use additional external SCSI cables
to daisychain each device to the previous device until all external SCSI devices
have been connected, as described in the peripherals’ documentation and as
shown in Figure 4-5 on the next page (refer to the peripherals’ documentation
for more information). Remember to terminate the last external device.
5. Reconnect all external devices to the PC and plug the PC back in.
