Installation

This section gives a step-by-step guide to setting up your CRW6416SX drive.

First Steps

Before connecting your CRW6416SX drive to your computer, you need to set up

the drive using the switches located at the rear of the unit.  You’ll need to set the

following:

●

SCSI ID number

●

Termination

1

SCSI ID number

Each of the SCSI devices connected to the computer is identified by its SCSI ID

number.  You need to assign a number from “0” to “7” for each SCSI device.

Commonly, ID number “7” is reserved for the computer’s SCSI adapter card

itself.  Therefore, your CRW6416SX drive can actually be assigned an ID number

from “0” to “6.”  Press the top or bottom button of the SCSI ID selector switch

to decrement or increment the SCSI ID number, as shown below.

n

The SCSI ID number for each device on the chain must be unique.  Make sure the

CRW6416SX drive’s SCSI ID number is not the same as that of any other device on the chain.

By factory default, the CRW6416SX is assigned ID number “1” but this can be changed.

n

The CRW6416SX is compliant with the SCAM Level 1 protocol. This means that if there is a

conflict between the manually-assigned SCSI ID of the drive and the ID of another SCSI device

on the same chain, the CRW6416SX is automatically assigned an alternative vacant SCSI ID by

the Plug and Play component of Windows 95 or Windows 98.
