each item in the list, press the Enter key and use the arrow keys to move between items. Press the Enter key to select the item. Press the Esc key to return to the previous screen.

Also, make sure that the tape drive is reported as ªInstalledº. The order of the list is important. The drives should be de®ned as:

Drive 0 is the master on primary IDE.

Drive 1 is the slave on primary IDE.

Drive 2 is the master on secondary IDE.

Drive 3 is the slave on secondary IDE.

An empty item is reported as a ªHard Disk Driveº and ªNot Installedº.

Note: The BIOS reports the tape drive incorrectly as a CD-ROM, but this does not cause a problem with operation.

Installing the TR-4 SCSI Internal Tape Drive

This section provides instruction for installing the SCSI internal tape drive. To install this drive, you must have the following:

vA SCSI bus adapter that is a single-ended SCSI and meets SCSI-2 (ANSI X3.T92) or SCSI (ANSI X3.131-199X Rev.10h) standards

vThe documentation that comes with your store controller

Step 1. Planning Your SCSI Con®guration

You must plan what SCSI ID to give the tape drive connected to the SCSI bus adapter. Each device on the adapter bus must have a unique ID. You cannot assign a device 7 because most SCSI bus adapters use that as their ID. Typically, assign the higher SCSI ID numbers to those devices that are most often used or are faster than other devices in the SCSI chain. The tape drive is preset at the factory to SCSI ID 0. Refer to your SCSI bus adapter documentation for more information.

For most Store Controllers, you can press F1 during startup to view your Store Controller and SCSI bus adapter con®guration. Other Store Controllers can have different procedures to view the con®guration. Some SCSI adapters have utility programs that allow you to view the SCSI con®guration, or you might have to physically inspect the installed SCSI devices to see how the IDs are set. For more information, refer to the documentation that comes with your Store Controller or SCSI bus adapter.

Step 2. Preparing for Installation

1.Turn off the Store Controller and unplug the power cables from the power outlet for the Store Controller and all attached peripherals.

2.Open the Store Controller. For speci®c information on opening your Store Controller refer to the documentation that comes with your Store Controller.

3.Touch the static-protective bag containing the tape drive to an unpainted metal surface on the Store Controller for at least 2 seconds. Remove the drive from the static-protective bag, holding the drive by the edges, and place it on the bag.
