or on jumper J8 if the second computer is connected 
to SCSI Channel B.

This feature works only when one computer is 
turned off, and the other computer connected to the 
same SCSI bus accesses the disk drives and other 
SCSI devices on the bus.

Setting SCSI IDs

You must assign a different SCSI ID to each device on 
the SCSI bus connected to the AHA-3940AU/AUW 
host adapter. See your SCSI device documentation to 
learn how to determine the ID and change it.

ID 7 is the default SCSI ID for the host adapter on 
both SCSI Channels A and B. You can change the 
ID(s) in SCSISelect, if necessary. See Configuring 
the Host Adapter
 on page 8.

SCSI devices connected to an AHA-3940AU can 
have IDs from 0 to 7. SCSI devices connected to 
an AHA-3940AUW can have IDs from 0 to 15. 
(The host adapter itself uses one SCSI ID on each 
channel.)

The SCSI IDs on one SCSI channel do not inter-
fere with the IDs on another SCSI channel.

If you have two host adapters connected to the 
same SCSI bus, be sure to assign them different 
SCSI IDs, preferably IDs 7 and 6.

Completing the Installation

1

Put the computer cover back on the computer, 
following the directions in the documentation.

2

Be sure all power switches are 

OFF

, then recon-

nect power cables to your computer.

3

Turn 

ON

 the power for the computer and the 

peripheral device(s).

4

If your system CMOS 

Setup

 requires you to 

enable PCI bus parameters, do so now. Refer to 
your computer documentation.
