Remarks
• The maximum number of SCSI devices that can be
connected to one computer is eight including the CPU.
When using with a host computer with a built-in SCSI hard
disk or built-in CD-ROM, note that SCSI ID numbers have
been pre-assigned for the host CPU and the SCSI devices.
• The SCSI cable must not be extended beyond a total length
of 19 feet (6 meters), or else failure may result.
• If you use the type of terminator that is inserted between
the SCSI cable and SCSI interface connector, install a
terminator independent of the other SCSI connector of the
COOLSCAN II.
• Terminators must be attached to the devices located at both
ends of the SCSI chain.
If the host computer is a Macintosh, the Macintosh itself will
provide termination at one end of the chain.
If the host computer is an IBM PC/AT or compatible,
equipped with a SCSI board, the SCSI board itself will
present termination at one end of the chain.
Note that when a SCSI chain connection is made inside a
computer, the end of the SCSI device inside the computer
will become the end terminal.
• Before installing a SCSI board, be sure to read the user’s
manual provided with the board. The numbers for the I/O
address, interrupt level (INT) and DMA channel might
conflict with other interface boards and peripheral devices. If
so, change them as explained in the manual.
