Chapter 3 Installing Your Tape Drive

Configuring and Installing an Internal Tape Drive with SCSI Interface

SDLT 600 Product Manual 50

and MSE Low Voltage Differential (LVD) mode in table 28 on page 53.

Pin assignments for the power connector are listed in table 29

on page 55.

1 Before connecting the SDLT 600 tape drive to the host computer, be

certain the tape drive and computer are powered off.

2 Ensure that your SCSI cables and terminators are SPI-3 (or SPI-4)

compatible. SPI refers to SCSI Parallel Interface; you can learn more

about this standard at the Web site http://www.t10.org

3 If you are connecting several devices to the SCSI bus, connect only

the tape drive to the host computer at this time. Confirm that the host

computer and tape drive are communicating correctly before adding

additional devices.

4 The SCSI bus must be terminated at each end. You may need to

terminate this tape drive if one of the following conditions exist:

• The SDLT 600 tape drive is the only device connected to the SCSI

bus.

• The SDLT 600 tape drive is one of several devices connected to

the SCSI bus, and it is the last device connected to the SCSI bus.

5 If either condition exists in step 4, attach a

Y adaptor cable to the tape

drive’s SCSI connector; then attach the SCSI cable to one leg of the

“Y” and attach the terminator to the other leg. Carefully connect the

cables, to avoid bending or damaging the connector pins.

6 Attach the power cables to the tape drive. Check the SCSI cable and

termination connections and ensure that they are attached correctly

and seated firmly.

Optional Loader Connector

The 8-pin optional loader connector provides signals to be used when the

tape drive is part of a loader/library configuration. Figure 11

on page 57

shows the location of this connector; Table 30

on page 55 lists the pin

assignments for the loader connector.

Note: You must supply the

Y adaptor cable to connect both the

SCSI connector and the terminator to the tape drive.
