desired SCSI ID. The top button increases the ID number, the bottom button

4.4.2 Installing the Tabletop Drive
Tabletop drive installation consists of connecting SCSI bus and power cables.
Figure 4-7 on page 4-21
shows the location of the two SCSI bus connectors and
power connector on the back of the tabletop drive.
SCSI Cables
The SCSI bus cable leading from the host adapter can be connected to either of the
connectors. If the tape unit is the last device on the bus, then a terminator should be
installed on the open connector. If the bus continues from the tape drive to another
SCSI device, then install a SCSI bus cable between the open connector and the
next device on the bus.
1.
Prior to connecting the SDLT drive to the host computer, make sure the drive
and computer are turned OFF.
2.
If you are connecting several devices to the SCSI bus, connect only the drive
to the host computer at this time. Confirm that the host computer and drive are
communicating correctly before adding additional devices.
3.
The SCSI bus must be terminated at each end. Depending on the terminator
supplied (Quantum 68-pin LVD/single-ended terminator with part number 12-
60308-01 or Quantum 68-pin HVD differential terminator with part number
12-41769-01); snap the wire cable clamps into place or tighten the screws to
secure the terminator.
If the SDLT drive is the only device connected to the SCSI bus, attach the
SCSI terminator to one of the connectors on the back of the drive.
