Setting SCSI device termination

Introduction

If you want to connect SCSI devices in a daisy chain, the last device in the daisy chain must be terminated. This section describes how to terminate the SCSI devices.

ATTENTION
	Ensure that the CD-ROM and tape drives are powered
	down before changing the device termination.

Supported daisy chain connection scenarios

The first device in a SCSI device daisy chain can be either the tape drive or the CD-ROM drive. However, because the Tandberg SLR5 tape drive is already internally terminated at the factory, Nortel recommends that you connect the tape drive as the last device.

The following diagrams show the supported daisy chain and SCSI cable connections for your switch. The CD-ROM drive is the first device in the daisy chain. The tape drive is the last device.
