Setting the SCSI ID with a Remote Switch

If you want to set the SCSI ID remotely, you can attach a remote switch assembly (not provided with the tape drive) to the tape drive’s SCSI ID jumper block. To set the SCSI ID with a remote switch, follow these steps:

1.Locate the SCSI ID jumper block on the back of the tape drive, as shown in Figure 1.

2.If necessary, remove the jumpers from the pins.

3.Connect a remote switch to the jumper block. Ensure that the remote switch is no more than 30.5 cm (12 inches) from the jumper block.

4.Change the settings on the remote switch to the correct address for your configuration. The switch settings should emulate the jumper positions shown in

Figure 2.

Note: For specific information about pin assignments for the SCSI ID jumper block, refer to the EXB-8205 and EXB-8505 Product Specification for the tape drive.
