Note: Ensure that all previous tasks have been completed before attaching the
SCSI terminators.
3. Route the cable for the first drive through the
cutout in the library floor.
Note: Use the figure to the right for an
example. Although the figure
shows Column 1 locations, the
locations for Column 0 are very
similar.
CAUTION: Connector damage. Be careful
not to bend or damage the pins or
connectors when connecting the cable to
the drive or SCSI bulkhead.
4. Connect the cable to a 68-pin jack on the
library bulkhead.
Note: If you are attaching to a 50-pin SCSI
bus, an adapter is required.
5. Connect the appropriate daisy-chain cable
from the second 68-pin connector to the
Y-cable connector for the next drive, if
applicable. See the figure to the right for an
example.
6. Install the terminator either at the bulkhead
jack or to the device at the end of the SCSI
bus.
7. Repeat Steps 2 through 6 for all remaining
drives, as applicable.
8. Close and lock the drive access doors as
necessary, if drives were installed in
Column 1.
