C-14
Fast, Wide Differential SCSI Bus Length
Follow these instructions to calculate your total FWD SCSI bus
length for the FWD SCSI- bus on your system using Table C–7:
1. List all of your internal FWD SCSI devices in the first column.
2. In the second column, write the lengths of the internal FWD
SCSI bus that correspond to your devices.
3. In the third column, write down the lengths of the FWD SCSI
interconnect cables you are using for your installation. (Cable
lengths are listed in subsection “Cables” in the “SCSI Restric-
tions” section.)
4. Add up all of the numbers in the second column and write that
number on the subtotal line at the bottom of the column. Do the
same for the third column.
5. Add the subtotals together and write the total in the Total FWD
SCSI Bus Length box.
NOTICE: The total length of the FWD SCSI bus must not
exceed 25 meters (82 feet). If the number you
write for Total FWD SCSI Bus Length is greater
than 25 meters (82 feet), try configuring your
installation with shorter cables.
If you have problems, call your designated service representative.
