Positive Logic Enables Transmitter (+5 V = Asserted)
Negative Logic Enables Receivers (0 V = Asserted)

Negative Logic Signal (0 V = Asserted)

Total interface cable length should not exceed value given in Section 9.6.3.2 from first SCSI device at
beginning to end of daisy-chain. See Section 9.7.2 for signal characteristics.

I/O Line terminators. If SCSI device is a Seagate disc drive, terminators and a place to plug them in must
be provided external to the drive by user, systems integrator or host equipment manufacturer where
needed. The drive has no terminators and there are no provisions on the drive for terminator installation.
[5]
Arrangements for connecting terminator power to the terminators must be made by the systems designer.
As a help, drive +5 V power is made available on SCSI bus (“N,” “W,” and “WD” models) for powering
external terminators if the drive option select header jumper TP (Figure 7d) is installed in rightmost posi-
tion “TP.” See pin assignment Tables 13b and 13c for pins assigned to terminator power.

SCSI I/O line (pin 21) disables I/O) circuits if single-ended cable plugged in or cable plugged in upside
down.

SCSI I/O cable ground. See Tables 13b and Table 13e.
