The user must set the following terminals and SCSI terminating resistor before installing the HDD in the system.
Setting terminal: CN6Figures 1 shows the setting terminal position of each model. Figures 2 shows the setting contents and default setting of each modules.

Setting terminals (MAx3xxxSP)
Figure 2 Setting terminals (MAx3xxxSP)
There is no SCSI ID setting terminals for SCA type model. Set the SCSI ID using ID0,ID1,ID2, and ID3 signals on the SCSI interface connector(CN1).
Table 1 shows the SCSI ID setting. Refer to Figure 2 for connector positioning and allocation.
IMPORTANT
When the SCSI ID is set using the external operator panel connector CN1, all pins listed in Table 1 should be open.
If any of pins are shorted, unexpected SCSI is set.
Table 1 SCSI ID setting(Single-ended 16-bit SCSI model:MAx3xxxSP)
SCSI ID | MAx3xxxSP(CN7) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
7-8 | 5-6 | 3-4 | 1-2 | |
0 | OPEN | OPEN | OPEN | OPEN |
1 | OPEN | OPEN | OPEN | SHORT |
2 | OPEN | OPEN | SHORT | OPEN |
3 | OPEN | OPEN | SHORT | SHORT |
4 | OPEN | SHORT | OPEN | OPEN |
5 | OPEN | SHORT | OPEN | SHORT |

10 | SHORT | OPEN | SHORT | OPEN |
11 | SHORT | OPEN | SHORT | SHORT |
12 | SHORT | SHORT | OPEN | OPEN |
13 | SHORT | SHORT | OPEN | SHORT |
14 | SHORT | SHORT | SHORT | OPEN |
15* | SHORT | SHORT | SHORT | SHORT |
IMPORTANT
- Set the SCSI ID so that there are no duplicates between SCSI devices on the same SCSI bus.
- The priority of SCSI bus use in ARBITRATION phase is determined by SCSI ID as follows:
7>6>5>4>3>2>1>0>15>14>13>12>11>10>9>8

Since there is no SCSI terminating resistor on the SCSI interface for SCA2 type 16-bit SCSI, there is no setting on the HDD.
Setting terminals CN6 5-6 set whether to use the terminating resistor circuit on the SCSI interface provided for the HDD (see Table 5).
IMPORTANT
When the external operator panel is connected using the external operator panel connector CN1, this setting is effective only when the A9 pin (DISCON) is open.
