3–8 Configuring the Pedestal
3.7 Device Addresses
You can assign the device SCSI bus addresses in the following ways:
•
Jumpers on the device
•
Device address switches on 8-bit removable media SBBs as described in the SBB User’s
Guide
•
Using the slot connector address as determined by the jumpers (see Section 3.6)
The basic rules for setting devices are:
•
16-bit devices always use the slot address
•
8-bit, 5.25-inch devices always use the internal jumpers
•
8-bit, 3.5-inch SBB disk drives always use the slot address
The following are options for an 8-bit removable media SBB with an address switch (refer to
the SBB User’s Guide).
•
To use the slot address set the device address switch to the default setting.
•
Duplicate device addresses on a single, 8-bit SCSI bus require you to set the device
address switch to an unused 8-bit device address.
3.8 Completing the Configuration
Perform the following procedure to complete the configuration and check the pedestal
operation.
1. Replace the side cover.
CAUTION
Install the side cover before turning the power on.
2. Install the SBBs in the lower portion of the pedestal.

4. Turn on the pedestal and check that the pedestal is operating properly and that the devices
respond when the SCSI bus is active.
