Set the Desired Parity-Checking CapabUity
AU devices on a SCSI bus must have the same parity-checking capability. If any device on
the SCSI bus does not generate parity, then all devices on the bus, including the adapter,
must not check parity. (Although parity-checking is selectable, the adapter always
generates parity.)
Note
If there is a SCSI device that cannot match the parity-checking capability
of other devices on the bus, you must add a separate SCSI bus for that
device. An additional SCSI adapter card may be needed for this purpose.
As shown in figure 1-4, the factory setting is “parity-checking enabled”, that is, with switch
4 in the “open” position. The “closed” position will deactivate parity-checking.
