Adaptec AHA-2940 - SCSI Card Manuale utente

INTRODUCTION

With the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro, you can connect up to 15

SCSI devices to any IBM-compatible computer with PCI

expansion slots.

This installation guide provides step-by-step instructions for

• Installing the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro

• Connecting internal SCSI devices

• Connecting external SCSI devices

• Installing the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro software

See the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro User’s Reference for additional

information on using the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro.

After you turn off your computer and unplug the power cord,

remove the cover from the computer.

If you need guidance, refer to your computer manual for

instructions on removing the cover.

Discharge any static electricity build-up before handling your

SCSI card by touching a grounded metal object (like the

exposed metal parts on the back of your computer).

INSTALLING THE SCSI CARD 2940UW PRO

STEP 1

STEP 2

Turn OFF power to the computer and disconnect the

power cord.

WARNING

2940UWPro-ig.qxd 12/21/98 9:55 AM Page 1

Locate an unused PCI expansion slot (typically white or ivory)

and remove the expansion slot cover.(The expansion slot

must be PCI Rev. 2.0 or higher compliant and must support

Bus Mastering.) Save the slot

cover screw for use in Step 4.

Computers may have vertical

or horizontal expansion slots.

Refer to your computer

manual to locate

the PCI slots.

STEP 3

STEP 4

PCI Expansion Slots

(Typically White or Ivory)

Insert the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro

into the PCI expansion slot; push

down firmly until it clicks into

place, then replace the slot cover

screw.

You are ready to install

internal SCSI devices.

To install external SCSI

devices only, replace

your computer cover

and skip to Connecting

External SCSI Devices.

Verify that each internal SCSI device you are installing has a

unique SCSI ID from 0 to 6 (0 to 6 and 8 to 15 for“Wide”SCSI

devices). Refer to the device’s documentation to determine the

SCSI ID setting.

If any two SCSI devices (internal or external) you are connect-

ing to the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro share the same SCSI ID,

change the SCSI ID on one device.The SCSI Card 2940UW Pro

is preset to SCSI ID 7 and should not be changed. See the SCSI

Card 2940UW Pro User’s Reference for additional information

on SCSI IDs.

If you are installing only one internal SCSI device,terminate

that device. If you have two or more devices on each cable,ter-

minate one device on each cable; the remaining devices must

not be terminated. (The terminated device must be connected

to the end of each cable, as explained in Step 5 below.)

The termination setting usually is controlled by setting a

jumper or a switch, or by physically removing or installing a

terminator module(s).Refer to the device’s documentation

to enable or disable termination on your device. See the SCSI

Card 2940UW Pro User’s Reference for additional information

on termination.

CONNECTING INTERNAL SCSI DEVICES

STEP 1

STEP 2

Mount each internal SCSI

device in an available

drive bay inside your

computer.

Refer to your computer

and device documenta-

tion for instructions on

installing devices inside

your computer.

Internal SCSI Device Mounted in

Drive Bay Inside Your Computer

If it is difficult to reach the back of your internal SCSI

devices when they are mounted in a drive bay, you can connect the

internal SCSI devices to the SCSI cable and power supply (Steps 5-7

below) before mounting each device inside your computer.

NOTE

STEP 3

2940UWPro-ig.qxd 12/21/98 9:55 AM Page 3

Connect one end of the internal SCSI cable to the

SCSI Card 2940UW Pro’s internal SCSI connector.

Each cable included in this package allows you to connect up to

two internal SCSI devices. To connect more than two internal

SCSI devices to each internal connector on the SCSI Card

2940UW Pro,you will need an internal SCSI cable with enough

connectors to accommodate all of your devices. See the SCSI

Card 2940UW Pro User’s Reference for additional information

on connecting your SCSI devices and ordering cables.

Connect the other end of the cable to the last internal device

(this device must be terminated;

see Step 2 above).

Connect the remaining connectors

on the cable to any remaining inter-

nal devices (these devices must not

be terminated; see Step 2 above).

STEP 5

Do not connect SCSI devices to all three connectors of a

SCSI Card 2940UW Pro host adapter.

the Back of the Drive

Power Cable (From the Power

Supply Inside the Computer)

Connect a power cable from your computer’s power supply to

the power input connector on each SCSI device.

Replace your computer cover.

If you are installing external SCSI devices,continue with the

next section; otherwise, skip to Installing the SCSI Card

2940UW Pro Software.

STEP 7

STEP 8

Verify that each external SCSI device you are installing has a

unique SCSI ID from 0 to 6 (0 to 6 and 8 to 15 for“Wide”SCSI

devices). Refer to the device’s documentation to determine the

SCSI ID setting.

If any two devices (external or internal) you are connecting to

the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro share the same SCSI ID, change the

SCSI ID on one device. The SCSI Card 2940UW

Pro is preset to SCSI ID 7 and should not be

changed.

For most external SCSI devices, the

SCSI ID usually is set with a

switch on the back of the

device. See the SCSI Card

2940UW Pro User’s Reference

for additional information on

SCSI IDs.

68-pin External SCSI Cable

50-pin External SCSI Cable

68-pin to 50-pin Adapter

(Adaptec Part # ACK-68P-50P-E)

Connect one end of the external SCSI cable to the SCSI Card

2940UW Pro’s external SCSI connector. Push the connectors

together until they lock in place.

For each external SCSI device you install, you need a high-

quality external SCSI cable. If you need to connect an

external SCSI device with a 50-pin cable, then you also need a

68-pin to 50-pin external converter that actively terminates the

high byte. This converter is available through Adaptec

(Part # ACK-68P-50P-E). See the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro User’s

Reference for additional information on connecting your SCSI

devices and ordering cables and adapters.

STEP 2

Connect the other end of the cable to a SCSI connector on the

back of the external SCSI device.If you are installing only one

external device, terminate the device and skip to Step 5.

Termination usually is controlled by installing or removing a

SCSI terminator. On some devices,

you use a switch or button on

the back of the device. Refer

to the device’s documenta-

tion to determine how to

enable or disable termina-

tion. See the SCSI Card

2940UW Pro User’s

Reference for additional

information on

termination.

Connect each additional SCSI device to the previous one until

all devices are connected.The device at the end of the chain

must be the only external device terminated.

Connect all power cables to the external devices and

STEP 5

To install the SCSI Card 2940UW Pro software (software driver),

go to the section below for the operating system (for example,

Windows®95) installed on your computer.If the operating sys-

tem is not yet installed,install it now. Refer to your operating

system documentation for instructions.

INSTALLING THE SCSI CARD 2940UW PRO

SOFTWARE

If you have installed a new SCSI hard drive in a computer

running Windows or DOS, you will need to partition and format the

drive with the DOS ffddiisskkand ffoorrmmaattcommands before it can be used.

Refer to yourWindows and DOS documentation for instructions.

NOTE

A narrow external device at the end of the chain may cause

a termination problem if a 68-pin to 50-pin adapter is not used.

NOTE
