2.4.3 Configuration
Configuring your DLT1 internal drive is fast and easy. You only need to select a unique
SCSI ID and decide if your drive needs to be terminated. The following sections explain how
to configure your drive.
2.4.3.1
Setting the SCSI ID
Regardless of the number of SCSI devices attached to the server or workstation that is to be
the host for your DLT1 internal drive, each must have a unique SCSI ID. Check the SCSI
IDs on all other SCSI devices on the selected server or workstation, including the SCSI host
adapter, and select an unused SCSI ID for your DLT1 internal drive. The factory default
SCSI ID is 5. If the factory default SCSI ID is not being used, you do not need to change the
drive’s SCSI ID.
Locate the SCSI ID jumpers on the rear panel of the drive as shown in Figure 2-5.
