This file provides basic configuration information for the ULTRA 24F family of SCSI controllers. For a more detailed instructions, please refer to the appropriate User Manual. 1. Jumper Settings (note : * denotes default settings) JP7 : Floppy Control *IN Always enable OUT Disable, if proper EISA configuration is not set JPTP : Terminator Power Control (Applies to ULTRA 24FA and 24FG only) * IN : The 24FA/FG supplies terminator power for SCSI pin 26 OUT : Terminator power supplied from SCSI pin 26 2. EISA Configuration Settings The following options are common to ULTRA 24F, ULTRA 24FA, and ULTRA 24FG EISA SCSI controllers. Enable or Disable ULTRA 24F Series Host Adapter * Enable / Disable Host Adapter Configuration BIOS Address Selection *C8000 / CC000 / D0000 / D4000 / D8000 / DC000 / C4000 / Disable Interrupt Selection *IRQ 14 / IRQ 10 / IRQ 11 / IRQ 15 Preempt Delay Control *64 BCLKS / 32 BCLKS SCSI Control Options Motor Spin Up Sequencing *Device auto spin up / Sequential spin up Syncronous Negotiation *Host adapter initiated / Target initiated Negotiation Starting Range *10 MByte/Sec / 5 MByte/Sec SCSI Parity Control *Enable / Disable Drive Mapping Mode *64 HD/32 SCTR, 2 DRV / 16 HD/63 SCTR, 2 DRV 64 HD/32 SCTR, >2 DRV / 64 HD/63 SCTR, >2 DRV Host Adapter SCSI ID *7 / 6 / 5 / 4 / 3 / 2 / 1 / 0 Floppy Control Option Floppy Disk Controller *Disable / Primary (3F0-3F7) / Secondary (370-377) Third Floppy Drive Cable Selection *Single twisted / Double twisted The following options are independent to ULTRA 24F, ULTRA 24FA, and ULTRA 24FG EISA SCSI controllers. ULTRA 24F/24FA ULTRA 24FG ISA Mode Selection *Disable / N/A Primary (1F0-1F7, 3F6-3F7) / Secondary (170-177,376-377) SCSI Terminator N/A *Enable / Disable 3. Connectors J1 : 50 pin internal SCSI connector J2 : 50 pin high density external SCSI connector P3 : 34 pin internal floppy connector JP1 : 4 pin controller activity LED connector 4. ULTRA BIOS Utility To invoke the on-board BIOS utility, after a full system bootup to DOS operating system, use the DOS "DEBUG" program to access the BIOS utility: a. Load the DEBUG program by typing DEBUG after the DOS prompt ( ">" sign ) b. Once in the DEBUG program, following the prompt ( "-" sign ), type g=c800:5 or whatever BIOS address the board is configured to. The ULTRA BIOS utility displays SCSI ID, type, manufacturer, model number, and mapping mode for each SCSI device attached to the ULTRA 24F family of controllers; it also provides functions for exercising SCSI devices. Verify : Non-destructive media verfication for hard disks, removable hard disks and magneto optical devices. Scan : Same function as verify except it will issue "reassign bad block" to the drive when defective sectors are found. Format : Low level format of the SCSI device. CFormat: Low level format of the SCSI device with the certification option (CLIST) which re-sequences the good blocks.
