SCSI Problem Checklist
■ Is the SCSI bus termination for the QLA12160 board set correctly (see
appendixes A and B)?
■ Is the termination for all devices on the SCSI bus set correctly?
■ Were all SCSI devices powered up before you powered up the PC?
■ Does each device have a unique SCSI ID? Each device must have a unique
ID between 0 and 15. The QLA12160 board is set to SCSI ID 7 at the factory.
■ Are the cable lengths within limits? Be sure that the total length for cables
connected to the QLA12160 board does not exceed the length listed in
table 3-1.
