INTERFACE

The M3099G image scanner provides SCSI-2(Small Computer System Interface-2) interface. The SCSI-2 is a 8 bit-parallel interface standardized by ANSI(American National Standard Institute).

This chapter provides an overview of the SCSI and interface specification of this scanner. For detail information, refer to ANSI SCSI standard document.

Definitions

SCSI device: A host adapter or a target controller that can be attached to the SCSI bus.

Initiator:

An SCSI device that requests an I/O process to be

 

 

performed by another SCSI device(a target).

Target:

An SCSI device that performes an operation

 

 

requested by an initiator.

Logical unit: A physical or virtual peripheral device addressable through a target.

Scope

This interface specification is following X3T9.2 draft proposal revision 10c. refering JBMS(Japan Business Machine Standard).

System configuration

This scanner operates under the multi-initiator, multi-target environment. An initiator function is not provided. This scanner incorporates an integrated target and logical unit (image scanner).

SCSI ID:0 to 7(changeable), default 5.

Logical Unit Number (LUN): 000b(fixed).
