Target Mode
Enable (0AH)

With this command you instruct the RF3880 to begin accepting selection from
initiators on the SCSI bus. The adapter will still operate as an initiator, but after
this command has been issued, it will also operate as a target, until a Target
Mode Disable command is sent or a SCSI bus reset occurs.

Command

Format

The Parameter Block format for the Target Mode Enable command looks like
this:

Note
If you send a Target
Mode Response
command to the RF3880

it to act in Target Mode
with the Target Mode

error code. If you send
the RF3880 an Enable
command while it is
already enabled, the
