Page 23 of 83 The following procedure should be used to install all IntraServer CompactPCI ® adapters: 1. Turn OFF the power to the computer system, and to all peripherals directly connected to the system (monitor, printer, external SCSI enclosures, etc.
Page 24 of 83 3 Configuring the SCSI Bus Some basic SCSI principles must be applied to correctly configure the SCSI bus on your system. Termination Most difficulties with the SCSI bus can be traced to improper termination and cabling. The SCSI bus must be terminated at both ends, and only at the ends.
Page 25 of 83 LVD signal levels. The LVD light will light to indicate the bus is running in ULTRA2 LVD (80MB/sec) mode. • If the LVD/SE bus on an ITI-8000 Series module senses ANY Single Ended (SE Only) devices on the bus, it will automatically set to SE signal levels and run in ULTRA (40MB/sec) mode.
Page 26 of 83 SCSI IDs Each device and host adapter on the SCSI bus must have a unique SCSI ID. It is recommended that the host adapter be left at its default ID of 7. Should it be necessary for the host adapter ID to be changed, use the OBP setenv command to change the scsi-initiator-id from 7 to the desired value.
Page 27 of 83 4 Cabling SCSI Devices All IntraServer CompactPCI ® SCSI adapters support up to 15 devices per SCSI channel. Devices can be connected internally, externally or a combination of internally and externally. For FAST SCSI operation, it is recommended that the total bus (cable) length from end to end be kept to 3 meters.
