8.1.1 Setting the TZ88N-VA SCSI ID

You must set the TZ88N-VA switches before the tape drive is installed into the BA350 StorageWorks enclosure. The Automatic selection is normally used. The TZ88N-VA takes up three backplane slot positions. The physical connection is in the lower of the three slots. For example, if the tape drive is installed in slots 1, 2, and 3 with the switches in Automatic, the SCSI ID is 3. If the tape drive is installed in slots 3, 4, and 5 with the switches in Automatic, the SCSI ID is 5. The switch settings are shown in Table 8–1. Figure 8–1 shows the TZ88N-VA with the backplane interface connector and SCSI ID switch pack.
