Connecting the SCSI and Power CablesTo connect the SCSI and power cables to the autoloader, follow these steps:

1.Shut down and turn off the selected server. Turn off all attached accessory devices, such as printers and other SCSI devices. Remove the power cables from the server and all attached accessories.

Caution Failure to remove the power cables from these devices could result in damage to the autoloader.

2.Attach one end of the SCSI cable (included in the accessory kit) to one of the connectors on the rear panel of the autoloader.

3.Attach the other end of the SCSI cable to the connector on the SCSI host adapter or to the connector on the previous device on the SCSI bus.

Note

If the supplied SCSI cable does not fit the connector on your SCSI

 

host adapter, you either have an incompatible SCSI host adapter

 

or you need to purchase a cable adapter. Contact your service

 

representative or your SCSI host adapter manufacturer for

 

information.
