Checking SCSI Bus Compatibility

Checking SCSI Bus Compatibility

You can ensure SCSI controller and SCSI device compatibility by using the SCSI command to display and select SCSI bus parameters.

The SCSI command is available from the boot menu displayed after the test station has booted (if autoboot is disabled). The boot menu looks like this (for highlighting reasons, the SCSI command is in bold here):
