Installing the internal-mount scanner in the
drive bay
Step 1—Connect the SCSI cable to the scanner
Connect one end of the flat 50-pin SCSI cable to the 50-pin
SCSI connector on the rear of the internal-mount scanner as
shown below. Insure that Pin 1 of the cable is aligned with Pin
1 of the scanner.
The connectors on both the scanner and the cable are
protected with a protruding tab to force the connector to
mount properly. Note that Pin 1 on the scanner connector and
the cable connector is marked with a triangle, and the wire
associated with Pin 1 has a red stripe on it. Do not force the
cable connector into the scanner. It should snap into place with
moderate force. Make sure that the connector on the cable is
positioned parallel to the connector on the scanner before
applying force. This will reduce the risk of bending any pins.
Warning! Make sure that Pin 1 marked on the scanner
connector mates with Pin 1 of the flat cable connector.
Step 2—Terminating the SCSI chain
The internal-mount scanner needs SCSI termination. Refer to
“5.4 Terminating the SCSI chain” in this chapter for more
information.
Step 3—Loosen the lock down screws
On one or both sides of the drive bay opening are locking
screws. These may be positioned so that they block the access
to the openings in the drive bay where the rails will slide in.
Loosen these screws so that the metal tab does not block
access to the openings. It may be necessary to remove these
tabs. Keep them handy because they will be repositioned in
Step 8 below.
