4. Connecting the Scanner

Remarks

The maximum number of SCSI devices that can be connected to one computer is eight including the CPU. When using the scanner with a host computer with a built-in SCSI hard disk or built-in CD-ROM, note that SCSI ID numbers have been preassigned for the host CPU and the SCSI devices.

The SCSI cable must not be extended beyond a total length of 19 feet (6 meters), or else failure may result.

Terminators must be attached to the devices located at both ends of the SCSI chain.

If the host computer is a Macintosh, the Macintosh itself will provide termination at one end of the chain.

If the host computer is an IBM PC/AT or compatible, equipped with a SCSI board, the SCSI board itself will provide termination at one end of the chain.

Note that when a SCSI chain connection is made inside a computer, the end of the SCSI device inside the computer will become the end terminal.

Before installing a SCSI board, be sure to read the user’s manual provided with the board. The numbers for the I/O address, interrupt level (INT) and DMA channel might conflict with other interface boards and peripheral devices. If so, change them as explained in the manual.
