EISA Fast SCSI Caching Adapter

1. Set I/O port address as 330H.
2. Set the SCSI ID as 0 and 1 for fixed disk drives.
3. Device drivers are needed for other SCSI devices, such as removable
cartridge, re-writable optical disk (MO), tape streamer, DAT, and CD-
ROM.
4. If the DC-820B coexists with an AHA 1540/1542 adapter, you must set
the I/O port address as 330H for Adaptec’s adapter and choose an I/O
port other than 330H for this DC-820B. More information can be refer-
enced in the following sections.
For DOS3.3/4.0/5.0/6.0 environments, the DOS 5 support enable/disable
option provides you an opportunity to enhance some functions:
1. The limitations for both the I/O port 330H and SCSI ID starting from 0
no longer exist.
2. As for DOS 5.0/6.0, the DC-820B can control up to 8 devices through
DC-820B’s BIOS, such as fixed disk and removable media devices.
To run the
MCS ECU, type CF. Choose the DC-820B EISA SCSI Host
Adapter to select the desired options. There are three fields providing as-
sorted options for Hardware, Firmware, and SCSI devices. As for the AMI
ECU, type CFG to set the options for Hardware and Firmware , and then run
the utility ACF20SU.EXE for SCSI device option setting, if necessary.
