MPC3000 Software Update Version 3.1 Operators Manual
Connecting Multiple SCSI Devices, Making a
SCSI Device Active Without Recycling Power
In previous versions of the system software, the only way to make a SCSI
hard disk active (recognized as ready for use by the MPC3000) was to turn the
MPC3000’s power on while the SCSI disk was connected and turned on. Also,
it was impossible to connect two or more SCSI devices to the MPC3000 and
switch between them while working.
Now, up to seven SCSI devices may be connected simultaneously, and you
may make any one of the connected devices active at any time without recy-
cling power.
To make a SCSI device active, or to make a different SCSI device active when
two or more are connected, go to the “SCSI status, make SCSI device active”
screen by pressing DISK, then 9, then 4:
============= SCSI Status ==============
Status:NO SCSI DEVICE IN USE
======= Make SCSI Device Active ========
SCSI device address to make active:AUTO
Timeout for SCSI scan:30
========================================
<Make active>
The fields and soft key in this new screen are:
• The Status field:
This field shows whether a SCSI device is currently in use and if so, tells the
SCSI address of that device. There are eight possible SCSI addresses, 0 - 7.
Your external SCSI hard disk has a switch to select one of these addresses. If
a SCSI device is currently active, this field will display the address of that
device. It is a display field and cannot be directly edited by the cursor. The 8
possible status messages are:
NO SCSI DEVICE IN USE
SCSI ID 0 IN USE
SCSI ID 1 IN USE
SCSI ID 2 IN USE
SCSI ID 3 IN USE
SCSI ID 4 IN USE
SCSI ID 5 IN USE
SCSI ID 6 IN USE
