Remarks

The maximum number of SCSI devices that can be connected to one
computer is eight including the CPU. When using the scanner with
a host computer with a built-in SCSI hard disk or built-in CD-ROM,
note that SCSI ID numbers have been preassigned for the host CPU
and the SCSI devices.

The SCSI cable must not be extended beyond a total length of 19
feet (6 meters), or else failure may result.

Terminators must be attached to the devices located at both ends of
the SCSI chain.

If the host computer is a Macintosh, the Macintosh itself will
provide termination at one end of the chain.

If the host computer is an IBM PC/AT or compatible, equipped with
a SCSI board, the SCSI board itself will provide termination at one
end of the chain.

Note that when a SCSI chain connection is made inside a computer,
the end of the SCSI device inside the computer will become the end
terminal.

Before installing a SCSI board, be sure to read the user’s manual
provided with the board. The numbers for the I/O address, interrupt
level (INT) and DMA channel might conflict with other interface
boards and peripheral devices. If so, change them as explained in
the manual.
