Troubleshooting Hardware Checklist
Most problems with the SCSI Card 2906 result from errors in prepar-
ing and connecting devices on the SCSI bus. If you have problems,
check these items first:
■
Are all SCSI devices turned on?
■
Are all SCSI cables and power cables properly connected?
■
Is the SCSI Card 2906 firmly seated and secured in the PCI
expansion slot? Turn
OFF
the power to the computer before
checking the card.
■
Is each SCSI device and the SCSI Card 2906 assigned a unique
SCSI ID? (See Step 1 in either Connecting Internal SCSI Devices
or Connecting External SCSI Devices in the SCSI Card 2906 Instal-
lation Guide
.)
■
Are all SCSI devices terminated properly? (See Step 2 in Con-
necting Internal SCSI Devices
or Step 3 in Connecting External
SCSI Devices
in the SCSI Card 2906 Installation Guide.)
■
When your computer allows you to set up configuration
options when the computer first boots up (through CMOS
setup), are the following options set up as specified?
– If there is an Interrupt Type or Interrupt Line option in the
Setup program, select Int-A or Interrupt Type = A (you also
may be required to change a motherboard jumper setting).
– If there is a Triggering Interrupt option, select Level.
– If there is an option to enable or disable bus mastering for
the PCI slots, select Enabled. Bus mastering must be
enabled. Check your computer documentation for more
information on bus mastering.
– If there is an option to enable or disable individual PCI slots,
be sure the slot in which you install the SCSI Card 2906 is
Enabled
