Understanding SCSI Connections Page 9

Understanding SCSI

Connections

Read the following sections to determine how to set up your SCSI devices

and whether you need any optional SCSI cables.

SCSI chain

The SCSI interface allows you to connect up to seven devices (such as a

scanner, hard disk, CD-ROM, and so on) to the computer. This

arrangement is often called a “daisy chain.” Only the first SCSI device in

the chain is connected to the computer; each of the other devices is

connected to another SCSI device.

Understanding SCSI Connections Page 10

SCSI cables

If you are using a SCSI cable other than the one provided, the length of

the cable must not exceed 9.8 feet(3 meters) to maintain compliance with

SCSI-2.

If you are connecting multiple SCSI devices to your computer, you

may need to purchase SCSI cables before setting up your SCSI

chain. Be sure the SCSI cable connectors are suitable for your

hardware, depending on the maker of your SCSI device and SCSI

interface board.

To connect the scanner to another SCSI device, the length of cable must

not exceed 19.7 feet (6 meters); otherwise the system may not work

properly.

SCSI ID

Each device has a SCSI ID number:

the SCSI adapter in the computer is

usually number 7, and each of the

other devices must have a different

number between 0 and 6. The

EPSON Perfection 636 default SCSI

ID number is 2.
