Termination Power Settings
Product: Flyer
Platforms: 2000 3000 3000T 4000 4000T
Problem: What is the correct jumper
setting for termination power - draw power for termination
from the drive or the SCSI bus?
Set termination power to "From drive only",
with any drive that has a jumper for selecting either
the drive or the SCSI host as the source power to the
terminators.
Any demand on the SCSI Host termination power line
causes problems for the Flyer. Drives should not draw
termination power from the SCSI bus. If possible, the
user should also not set a drive to feed termination
power to the SCSI bus, but with modern drives that
require external terminators the situation may be unavoidable.
