Starting the SCSI Utility

The SCSI Utility, stored in ROM of the system equipment, must be started in the following steps:

1.

Turn on the system equipment.

2.

When “Press Ctrl-C to start Symbios Configuration Utility....” is displayed, holding down key,
press

key.

The SCSI Utility will be started to display the following Main Menu:

If the operating system has already started before and keys are pressed, terminate the OS and then
restart the system equipment. Some types of OS, such as Windows NT, requires a special operation such as
shutdown. Check the manual of your OS.

Checking the SCSI ID

You can check the SCSI ID either with the SCSI Utility or from the SCSI BIOS display at the time of system startup.
When the system is started, “Press Ctrl-C to start Symbios Configuration Utility....” is displayed on the screen,
followed by the display below. The ID column shows the SCSI IDs for the SCSI devices (including the SCSI
controller).

NOTE: Possible causes for incorrect ID display are:

The SCSI ID has already been used by another SCSI device.

No SCSI cable is connected.

No terminating resistor has been set for both ends of the SCSI bus.

If other messages are displayed, see “Error Messages for the SCSI Utility” on page 110.
