SCSI Configuration 5 — Five SCSI Buses

Attach one end of the SCSI interface cable(s) to the connector(s) shown on the rear of your Scalar Library . Press firmly and secure the bail locks.

Plug the other end of the SCSI interface cable(s) into the external connector(s) on the SCSI interface card(s). Secure the bail locks firmly.

Note

The bail locks at both ends of the SCSI cable must be securely fastened in order for your library to communicate properly with the computer.
