CHAPTER 2: Introduction 2. Introduction The Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter (our product code IC515C) is a high- performance Ultra2 SCSI (Low Voltage Differential) PCI-busmastering adapter that functions as the interface between a SCSI bus and a PC’s PCI local bus. The Adapter supports all kinds of peripherals compatible with SCSI-1, SCSI-2, Fast SCSI, Ultra SCSI, or Ultra2 SCSI (LVD), including I/O devices such as SCSI scanners and storage media such as hard-disk, CD-ROM, MO, tape, and removable d

ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER • User-hardwirable, user-programmable, or automatic SCSI termination. You can choose between hardwire-enabling termination on the Adapter, programming the termation through its firmware, or letting the Adapter handle termination automatically, eliminating the need to open up the PC every time you need to make termination changes. ® • Onboard BIOS supports Microsoft MS-DOS. The Adapter has the necessary software onboard to handle MS-DOS disk-drive operations without r

CHAPTER 2: Introduction 2.2 The Adapter Illustrated The Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter and its major components are shown in Figure 2-1 below. You might want to refer to this diagram as you install your Adapter (see Chapter 4). Figure 2-2 below that shows closeups of the Adapter’s two SCSI connectors. The Adapter’s other components include: • Jumper JP1: These posts are usually left open so that termination can be firmware-controlled. Put a jumper on them to hard-wire termination always ON. • SE L

ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER 3. Before You Install: Getting Started 3.1 The Adapter and the SCSI Bus Your Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter performs busmastering and works with the host computer to provide a means of control for the SCSI bus. By daisychaining peripheral devices together, as many as fifteen devices can be linked to the Adapter on the SCSI bus. The Adapter does not have to be placed in any particular physical position on the bus, but because it doesn’t have two external connectors, it

CHAPTER 3: Before You Install: Getting Started A device’s ID number will reflect the priority it has on the SCSI bus; except for ID 7 (reserved for host adapters), the lower a device’s number, the higher its priority. So you should assign lower numbers to the devices that you will need to access more frequently or at a moment’s notice, and higher numbers to less critical devices. (8-bit “Narrow” SCSI peripherals must use SCSI IDs 0 through 6; 16-bit “Wide” peripherals can be assigned IDs 8 throu

ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER 3.3 SCSI-Bus Length Because of its inherent electrical vulnerability as a high-speed parallel interface, the SCSI bus has definite distance limitations. With earlier versions of the SCSI interface, the maximum length of the bus—the total distance from the terminated device at one end to the terminated device at the other end—were normally inversely proportional to the data rate, as shown below: Max. Length Standard 6 m (19.7 ft.) SCSI-1 6 m (19.7 ft.) Fast SCSI (SCSI

ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER Because the methods for terminating SCSI peripherals can vary widely, you should refer to a given peripheral’s documentation for instructions on how to enable or disable its termination. Here are some general tips about device termination, though: • Internal Ultra2 SCSI peripherals are shipped from the factory with termination disabled; this setting cannot be changed. Proper termination for internal Ultra2 peripherals is always provided by a built-in connector at the

CHAPTER 3: Before You Install: Getting Started NOTE If you mix Wide and Narrow devices on the same side (internal or external) of a SCSI bus attached to the Adapter, we strongly recommend that all of the Narrow devices be attached to the bus closer to the Adapter than all of the Wide devices. If you attach any Narrow devices at the far end of the bus, beyond any Wide devices, you’ll have to be very careful to terminate the Wide lines (Pins 51 to 68) of the last Wide device. Alternatively, you ca
