4-18 Preparing the Camera and the Computer
8. (Optional) Later, to disconnect the camera from the computer, shut
down the computer and then power off the camera. Then disconnect
the terminator from the camera and the SCSI cable from the computer.
Do not leave a SCSI cable with an empty connector/terminator
dangling from your computer.
Continue at “Inserting and Removing a PCMCIA Card” later in this
chapter.
II. Camera Used with Other SCSI Devices
NOTE: If other external SCSI devices are connected to your computer, you may
need to obtain a SCSI terminator to complete these steps.
Follow these steps if one or more external SCSI devices are already
connected to your computer.
Multiple SCSI devices are connected to the computer in a chain. If the
camera is one of multiple SCSI devices connected to your computer, it
must be connected as the last device in the chain of SCSI devices since it
only includes one SCSI connector.
The total cable length connecting all devices must not exceed 15 feet (4.6
meters).
You will need to determine if the connected SCSI devices are terminated
or not. To do so, first look for an external SCSI terminator on the devices.
Because some devices contain internal terminators, also check the in-
structions for your devices to determine if they are terminated internally,
and if they are whether that termination is currently active.
We provide two sets of instructions. Follow the first set (A) if none of the
connected devices are terminated or if one of the devices is terminated
externally. Follow the second set (B) if one of the devices — it should be
the last device in the chain — is terminated internally.
