Connecting cables

WARNING When making SCSI connections, always turn off power to all devices in the chain. If you don’t, you could lose information and damage your equipment.

1Shut down your PowerBook and turn off all SCSI devices in the chain.

2To connect the first device, use an Apple HDI-30 SCSI System Cable.

Attach the smaller end of the cable to the SCSI port (marked with the icon g) on the Duo Dock or the Duo MiniDock, and the larger end of the cable to either SCSI port on the device.

3To connect the next device, use a SCSI peripheral interface cable.

The connectors on the ends of the cable are the same. Attach one connector to the available SCSI port on the first device, and the other connector to either SCSI port on the next device.

4Repeat step 3 for each additional device you want to connect.
