8.2. Summary of DC2975.SYS Command Line Switches
If you wish to use the Power Save function or if any problems are caused by
customized 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:
Start the "REGEDT32" program. Display the SCSI adapter parameters by
opening "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE", "SYSTEM", "CurrentControlSet", and "Services"
in that sequence. Then chose "DC2975", "Parameter" and select "Device". A
"DriverParameter" entry listing the current settings will be displayed on the right panel.
Click on "DriverParameter" to open a dialog that allows you to change the parameter
settings.
/PS=..
Specifies the interval (in minutes) after which inactive drives are to be
switched off
/*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
synchronous mode. Hostadapters supplied with a SCSI setup ignore
this parameter and use the setup settings instead.
/SN=x,..,x
This parameter specifies the devices to be operated in Synchronous
Data Transfer mode if this mode is supported by these devices,
independent of the Windows settings. Entering "/SN=1,4", for example,
enables the synchronous mode for SCSI-IDs 1 and 4. Hostadapters
supplied with a SCSI setup ignore this parameter and use the setup
settings instead.
/!DISC=x,..,x
Specifies the devices for which the "disconnect" settings of Windows
device manager are to be ignored and with it this function is not
available.
