the Windows operating system providing an automatic setup procedure which much
facilitates the installation process.
Windows will recognize your SCSI hostadapter automatically during the first
booting.In the dialog "new hardware found" you have to chose for installation "driver
on producers disc". Then select the "Browse" option; the installation files are located
in the „\WIN95-98“ directory on your installation diskette. When you have specified the
drive and folder, Windows displays a dialog indicating the exact type and name of your
SCSI hostadapter.
PCI SCSI hostadapters are automatically configured by the PCI BIOS, i.e. the
SCSI hostadapter is assigned a free interrupt and a free I/O address which cannot be
changed via Windows’ Device Manager.
After PC restart the SCSI hostadapter and all SCSI devices connected to it will
be listed in Windows’ Device Manager. Should Windows have recognized your SCSI
hostadapter and installed the appropriate driver auto-matically, we still recommend
using the driver contained in the hostadapter package. Start Control Panel, double-
click the System icon, choose Device Manager, and select the icon representing the
installed SCSI hostadapter. Then activate the Drivers tab and choose the Other Driver
or Updated Driver option to install the original driver delivered on diskette.
5.2 Summary of DC2974.MPD Command Line Switches
If you wish to use the Power Save function or if any problems are caused by
customised configurations, you can add the following switches to the SCSI driver by
means of the options provided on the Settings tab in Windows’ Device Manager:
/PS=.. Specifies the interval (in minutes) after which inactive drives are to be
switched off
/LUN This parameter enables the device’s support of several LUNs (Logical
Units). However, most SCSI devices only have LUN 0 available to them
so that you will need this parameter only for special cases. Host-
adapters supplied with a SCSI setup ignore this parameter and use the
setup settings instead.
/ID=x x = SCSI ID of the hostadapter. The SCSI-ID of the host adapter will be
set automatically if this parameter is not specified. Valid SCSI-ID values
are 0 to 7.
/*SN=.. Specifies the Target-IDs for which the synchronous/asynchronous data
transfer settings of Windows’ Device Manager are to be ignored, i.e. for
which control is be given to the SCSI device. Hostadapters supplied with
a SCSI setup ignore this parameter and use the setup settings instead.
/!SN=x,..,x This parameter defines the devices that are to run in asynchronous
instead of in synchronous mode even if the device tries to switch into
