Apple PowerBook G3 - Manual (Page 36)

Connecting your computer as a hard disk
Before making any connections, you need to assign a unique SCSI ID number
to the PowerBook. (The unique ID number allows the computer to
communicate with several connected devices.)
1 Choose Control Panels from the Apple ( K ) menu of your PowerBook.
2 Open the PowerBook Setup control panel.
3 In the SCSI disk mode section of the control panel, click the ID number you want
to assign.
If you are connecting the Macintosh PowerBook to an existing SCSI chain,
make sure to give it an ID number different from those of the other devices.
(Many devices include an ID number indicator on the back panel.)
4 Close the PowerBook Setup control panel.
5 Press the Power ( π ) key on the PowerBook once to get the Shut Down dialog box and
click Shut Down to turn the PowerBook off.
6 Shut down the computer you are connecting to and turn off any other devices in the
SCSI chain.
7 Connect the small connector on the Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter to the SCSI port on
your PowerBook.
WARNING Always shut down the PowerBook before connecting or
disconnecting the SCSI disk adapter cable. Connecting the adapter cable
while the computer is turned on can damage the computer.
