The STT20000 SCSI minicartridge drive supports active termination and does not
require the use of terminating resistor packs.
Terminator power
Terminator power (+5-volt) is enabled by default.
Caution:
If the jumper is installed, be careful not to short the TERMPWR signal to
ground.
The drive contains a terminator power fuse to prevent damage to drive components
in case the terminator power is shorted. If terminator power is enabled and the SCSI
cable is connected upside down for example, this fuse may blow to prevent damage
to the drive itself. In that case, return the drive to an authorized repair facility.
