Chapter 3

The SCSI Interface

In many cases, more than one SCSI target device will be connected to the SCSI

bus. When this is true, the chain of SCSI cables must connect or ‘daisy chain’ each

device together, even though the devices will typically only communicate directly with

the Macintosh, not with each other. In this example, Coolscan is placed at the end of

the SCSI chain. This daisy chaining configuration, as shown in Figure 3.11, minimizes

the number of cables and connectors required.

Figure 3.11 Daisy chaining SCSI devices. Coolscan is at the end of the chain. The rear view of

your system may not be the same.

Procedure (using a Centronics 50-pin to Centronics 50-pin SCSI cable):

1. Make sure that the Macintosh and all other SCSI devices are powered off

2. Remove the SCSI terminator from the last device in the SCSI chain.

3. Insert one end of the unused SCSI cables into the top SCSI connector on the

back of Coolscan.

4. Connect the other end of the unused SCSI cable to the free SCSI connector of

the neighboring SCSI device.

5. Connect the SCSI terminator to the bottom SCSI connector on the back of

Coolscan.
