One device should supply term power on the bus. I usually have the last device in the chain supplying term power. In as far as device type to ID mapping is concerned, there are no fixed rules. I for one always have HD on 0 - 3, CD and CD writer on 4 and 5, and scanner on 6. Note that ID has no relation to the device position on the chain. Termination must be applied on the last device of the chain. --- Date: Thu, 29 May 2003 21:01:46 -0400 Subject: Re: SCSI ID's From: Kevin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
O.K. So, I reckon this weekend I will redo the whole SCSI Bus. One more question though. Does the first ID on the Bus need to be connected to the first connector on the ribbon? Or does that matter? Do you set the ID's according to the location on the SCSI ribbon? One more final question. On the CDROM, do the pins that say "term power" need to have jumpers on them if they are last on the chain? -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
