SDT-S11000 DDS Quick Start Card
1. Switch off the host computer and peripherals before connecting
the SCSI cable.
2. Make sure the SCSI connectors are seated properly.
3. If this unit is the last (or only) device on the SCSI bus, make sure
to connect a SCSI terminator to the open connection. If another
device will be added to the SCSI chain after the SDT-S11000, put a
cable from the SDT-S11000 to the device. The end of the SCSI bus
must always be terminated.
4. Set the SCSI ID:
Wide SCSI allows SCSI addresses from 0 to 15. Each device
requires a unique address. The SCSI address of the SDT-S11000
must be different from any other device on the SCSI bus,
including the SCSI address of the host.
Before setting the SCSI address, turn off the power by using the
POWER switch on the front panel.
SCSI ID is set by the rotary switch on the rear panel. Press
the
+
or
-
buttons to move the number up or down, respectively.
5. Connect the power cord.
6. Power on the host computer, load the software and the
SDT-S11000 is ready for use!
1. Press the
POWER
button on the front panel. The
POWER
indicator should light, and the
STATUS

BUSY
and
TAPE
indicators should blink as the self-test is performed.
2. When the three indicators stop blinking, you can insert a data
cartridge as shown below. The
TAPE
indicator will blink, and if
the cartridge is write-protected, the
STATUS
indicator will light.
3. Computer software controls the reading and writing of tapes.
While reading or writing, the
BUSY
indicator blinks.
To remove cartridges:
Press the
EJECT
button. The cartridge ejects
automatically.
CAUTION:
Do not push the
EJECT
button while the
BUSY
indicator is blinking as it may destroy data on the tape.
