Daisy Chain

The SCSI interface allows you to connect up to seven devices (such

as a scanner, hard drive, CD-ROM, and so on) to the computer, in

wha t is c a ll e d a “ d a is y c ha i n ” a r r an g e me n t . O n ly t h e fi r st S C SI d e vi c e

in a daisy chain is connected to the computer; each of the other

devices is connected to another SCSI device.

Note:

To work with a scanner in wide SCSI, the scanner must be connected to

the wide SCSI Host Adapter via a 68-pin SCSI cable. If narrow SCSI

devices exist between the SCSI host adapter and the scanner, the scanner

works only in the narrow SCSI mode. In this case, you need to set the

select switch to N (narrow).

SCSI Cables

You may need to purchase SCSI cables before setting up your SCSI

daisy chain. The scanner has two SCSI connectors: one is for a

wide 68-pin SCSI cable and the other for a n arrow 50-pin SCSI

cable. Be sure the SCSI cable connectors are suitable for your

hardware, according to the maker of your SCSI device and SCSI

interface board.

SCSI ID and terminator

Each device has a SCSI ID number: the computer is usually set to

number 7, and each of the other devices must have a different

number between 0 and 6. Also, the first device and the last device

in the chain (not including the computer) must have a terminator.

No other device can have a terminator, or if a terminator does

exist, it must be turned off or removed.
