986.0. "K.scsi installation questions" by KAOFS::E_BELANGER (Canadian Remote Diagnostic Center) Fri Apr 11 1997 13:23

A customer is trying to install a k.scsi in a HSC70.

Config: HSC70
	BA350
	RZ28-VA's


1) Where the SCSI TRANSITION CABLE  54-22877-01 should be install on the
   hsc backplane? Does anyone have a drawing or could someone provide the
   position of the connector?


2) The cust ran Ksutil to configure the drives then he connect the drive
   to the single ended connector but cannot see the drives. He still see the
   path mode to differential.

	- Please confirm that the single-ended/differential selection is made
	  by connecting the cable to the proper connector. Is there something
	  else to do?

Thanks,

Eric

	-< K.scsi installation questions >- 1) Where the SCSI TRANSITION CABLE 54-22877-01 should be install on the HSC backplane? Does anyone have a drawing or could someone provide the position of the connector? 1A/ the 54-2877-01 is not a cable. It is the TCB that plugs into the backplane within the black plastic guides. The TCB provides either diff/single termination for the beginning of the buss. 2) The cust ran Ksutil to configure the drives then he connect the drive to the single ended connector but cannot see the drives. He still see the path mode to differential. - Please confirm that the single-ended/differential selection is made by connecting the cable to the proper connector. Is there something else to do? 2A/ If you have not plugged in the TCB how can you be looking at drives at the end of the cable? If you have a 68 pin cable from the bulkhead it must go to a DWZZA in the BA350. If you hook up the right cables the controller does not care what the termination is. Basically you have me confused. Could you please define your setup better for me. Regards John Kowall Thanks, Eric
