CHAPTER 2: Introduction
2.2 The Adapter Illustrated
The Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter and its major components are shown in
Figure 2-1 below. You might want to refer to this diagram as you install your
Adapter (see
Chapter 4
). Figure 2-2 below that shows closeups of the Adapter’s two
SCSI connectors. The Adapter’s other components include:
•
Jumper JP1:
These posts are usually left open so that termination can be
firmware-controlled. Put a jumper on them to hard-wire termination always
ON.
•
SE LED:
Lights if any single-ended (legacy) devices are attached to the Adapter.
•
LVD LED:
Lights if any Ultra2 LVD SCSI devices are attached to the Adapter.
•
ACT LED:
Dark if the attached SCSI bus is passively terminated (which we
don’t recommend); lights if the bus is actively terminated (including forced-
perfect termination).
