Minolta CD-10 4. Connecting with a Computer

4. Connecting with a Computer

This drive unit connects to a computer through a SCSI ca-

ble. There are two types of connection depending on

whether or not an additional SCSI device is to be used.

These two cases are discussed in this section.

Note: There are several physical forms of SCSI connectors.

Check the SCSI connector of the computer and SCSI device to

be connected and procure a proper SCSI cable.

For connection with an IBM PC/AT compatible computer, a SCSI

board must have been previously mounted in the computer. To

mount a SCSI board, consult the documents included with the

SCSI board.

CAUTION: Turn off the power to the computer and SCSI device(s)

before making the connections.

Plug one end of the SCSI cable into the SCSI connector at

the rear of the computer and the other into the SCSI connec-

tor at the rear of this drive unit. Securely plug the cable end

into the connector then secure it (with clamps or screws

built into the SCSI cable).
