ID
SELECTOR
SCSI
ID
A
SCSI
ID
is
an
address
number
(0
through
7)
assigned
to
a
SCSI
device.
In
a
SCSI
chain
each
device
must
have
a
unique
SCSI
ID
number.
The
DynaMO
640SE
SCSI
ID
is
factory
set
to
2.
If
this
address
is
already
in
use,
turn
off
the
DynaMO,
adjust
the
SCSI
ID
selector,
and
reboot
the
computer.
Never
assign
your
drive
ID
6
or
7.
These
ID’s
are
usually
reserved
for
your
SCSI
host
adapter
and
hard
disk
drives.
Please
read
your
SCSI
host
adapter
user's
guide
for
confirmation.
Creating
a
SCSI
Chain
You
can
connect
a
series
of
SCSI
devices
to
form
a
chain
on
a
single
SCSI
host
adapter.
For
any
SCSI
chain,
the
total
length
of
all
the
cables
in
the
chain
should
not
exceed
6
meters
(19.6
feet.).
We
recommend
that
each
SCSI
cable
in
the
chain
does
not
exceed
1
meter
(3.3
feet).
