CDR400tx drive settings

SCSI ID settings

The SCSI ID number is used so that the computer will recognize a 
connected SCSI device. You can assign 0 through 7 as the SCSI ID 
number. Usually, “7" is reserved for the SCSI card ID number, and 
“0” is reserved for the first SCSI device in the chain. Use a number 
between 1 and 6 for the CDR400tx.
Use the switch on the rear panel to set a SCSI ID number. The factory 
set ID number is “1”.

Caution: If you are using other SCSI devices, be sure to use a unique ID num-

ber for each device. Be sure to turn off the power to the drive before 
you set the SCSI ID number.

Note: When you are using Windows 95, and if the SCSI ID setting on the 

rear panel is the same as the number assigned to another SCSI device, 
the Plug and Play component of Windows 95 will automatically 
assign an unused number to the CDR400tx (SCAM protocol level 1).

Terminator setting

The terminator setting indicates whether or not this device is the last 
connected SCSI device.
