SET DEFAULTS

The SET DEFAULT fuction will reset all operating parameters to factory defaults.

Perform the following procedure to set the LF 8600's to the factory defaults:

1.Enter the Configuration mode by pressing both the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches simultaneously.

2.Press the MENU switch until "Set Config" is displayed.

3.Press the SELECT switch to enter the Set Configuration menu. "SET DEFAULTS" will be displayed.

4.Press SELECT to set parameters to the facatory defaults.

5.Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches to move up to the Main menu. Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT Switches again to exit Configuration mode.

SETTING THE SCSI ID

The SCSI ID can be set to one of 16 device Identification (ID) numbers (0 through 15); however, each device connected to the same SCSI bus must have a unique SCSI ID.

Perform the following procedure to set the LF 8600's SCSI ID number:

1.Enter the Configuration mode by pressing both the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches simultaneously.

2.Press the MENU switch until "Set Config" is displayed.

3.Press the SELECT switch to enter the Set Configuration menu.

4.Press the MENU switch until "SCSI ID" is displayed.

5.Press the SELECT switch to scroll through the options for the SCSI ID value (0 through 15). When the desired value is displayed for the SCSI ID, press MENU to enter the SCSI ID value and move to the next option in the Set Configuration menu.

6.Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches to move up to the Main menu. Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT Switches again to exit Configuration mode.

NOTE

After resetting the device ID, turn the drive off, wait 5 sec and then turn the drive on again. This ensures that the new device ID will be acknowledged by the SCSI bus.
