Proper Termination

A terminator provides electrical circuitry at the end of a SCSI chain to prevent the reflection of electrical signals when they reach the end of the chain. The SCSI bus requires termination only at the end of the SCSI chain. The MX-2424 includes an internal terminator as standard, which should not be removed. There are several types of SCSI Termination for use with external devices. Only the specified types of terminators described below should be used with the MX-2424.

When a SCSI chain consists of LVD devices The MX-2424 must use an LVD/SE Terminator on the last device. When a SCSI chain contains single ended wide or narrow SCSI devices, the MX-2424 must use an active terminator on the last device.

All 16-bit drives should be configured to supply Term Power to the bus (usually default setting). This configuration is usually a jumper setting. Please refer to drive documentation for directions on installing this jumper setting.

All connection and disconnection of SCSI devices/cables/terminators must be done with all power off.
