SCSI Rules

There are a few rules that must be considered when connecting SCSI devices to the MX-2424:
1.

 

Narrow (8-bit) devices connected externally to the MX-2424 must be connected at the end of the
SCSI chain.

2.

 

Narrow (8-bit) devices may be installed in the front panel bay of the MX-2424 with the proper
adapter (ADP-9053).

3.

 

Only Approved SCSI devices should be connected to the MX-2424 in approved configurations.  For a
list of currently approved SCSI devices check the TASCAM web site at 

http://www.tascam.com

.

This list will be updated as needed.

4.

 

A SCSI chain must always be properly terminated.

5.

 

Each device in a SCSI chain must have its own unique SCSI ID number.
