PCM-3430 Installation Guide

BC-599/596

Before You Begin

Symbios the vendor of the SCSI single chip encourages saving all

current data. In case of failure this will insure that precious

information will still be stored elsewhere.

This manual assumes the user is familiar with basic O/S, DOS,

IBM compatibility and proposed standards for SCSI and PCI.

Prior to installing the SCSI driver we recommend connecting your

system to the SCSI controller. Keep in mind you must also assign a

ID code for each device used in your system.

SCSI ID Codes for attached Devices

PCM- 3430 allows up to 15 devices to be connected to your

controller. With so many items running simultaneously SCSI must

assign a ID code for each device. If however the system you are

using is set in the automatic mode (SCAM) you will not have to do

so. There are 16 ID numbers ranging from 0 to 15. ID number 7 is

allocated to the SCSI card. The hard drive must be given the

lowest ID number. Your other peripheral devices are either set with

jumpers or a switch. Refer to the manufacturer's manual to assign a

ID number for each device. If you are able to use the boot

specification (BBS) then the hard drive will not require the lowest

ID number.
