1.3 Quick Host Adapter Installation
If you are an experienced computer user with prior host adapter
installation and SCSI bus setup experience, this section may sufficiently
describe the installation procedure for you. If you prefer more detailed
instructions and guidance, refer to Section 2.1, “Installing your Ultra160
SCSI Host Adapter,” page 2-1.
To install an LSI Logic Ultra160 SCSI to PCI Host Adapter, follow these
steps:
Step 1. Ground yourself before handling the host adapter board to
discharge static electricity.
Step 2. Remove the host adapter board from its packing and examine
it for any damage. Retain the packing for future use.
Step 3. Turn off and unplug your computer and peripherals.
Step 4. Open your PC cabinet by removing its cover.
Step 5. Locate the slot for installing PCI plug-in boards.
Step 6. Insert your Ultra160 SCSI host adapter board into the selected
PCI (32 or 64 bit) slot.
Step 7. Connect the internal and external SCSI peripherals.
Optional: Connect the LED cable on your SCSI host adapter.
Step 8. Terminate the SCSI bus.
The SCSI bus requires proper termination and no duplicate
SCSI IDs.
Step 9. Set the peripheral SCSI IDs. Do not duplicate the SCSI IDs.
Step 10. Make any configuration changes.
Step 11. Replace your PC cabinet cover.
Step 12. Plug in all power cords, turn on the peripherals, and then turn
