Installation Notes

Read the Installation Poster

The Quick-Start installation poster describes how to install your CD-

Writer Plus. Follow the instructions on the poster and refer to this

chapter if you need additional information about:

■Introduction to SCSI devices

■How to set the SCSI ID on your CD-Writer Plus

Introduction to SCSI1Devices

SCSI (pronounced scuzzy) devices are peripherals like hard drives, CD-

ROMs, scanners, etc. that exchange information with the computer using

a specific set of rules.

A SCSI device communicates with the computer through a SCSI card (or a

SCSI controller on the motherboard). There can be up to seven2devices

attached to a single card forming a SCSI chain. Depending on the type of

SCSI card the devices can be external, internal, or both.

Here is an example of a chain:

1. SCSI stands for Small Computer System Interface

2. 15 devices for SCSI Wide controllers

6How to Set the SCSI ID

The SCSI Card

A SCSI card (not included) and its software must be installed and

functioning properly before installing the CD-Writer Plus. Consult the

documentation that came with your SCSI card or your computer for

details.

If you purchase a SCSI card (also known as a host adapter or SCSI board)

for your computer make sure it is:

■PCI Bus

■SCSI-2

The SCSI Devices

SCSI IDs

Each device in a SCSI chain must have a different identifying number

between 0 and 7 called the SCSI ID (SCSI ID 7 is usually reserved for the

SCSI card). The SCSI ID for external devices is often set with a switch on

the back of the device.

Termination

The SCSI devices at either end of a chain must be terminated so the

computer knows that there are no more devices in the chain. External

devices are often terminated using a switch on the back of the device or

connecting a resistor. The CD-Writer Plus adjusts its termination

automatically.

If you do not have any internal devices, the SCSI card itself is one end of

the chain and must be terminated. Most newer SCSI cards adjust their

termination automatically.

How to Set the SCSI ID

Why might I need to change the SCSI ID?

A SCSI card may have several devices attached to form a SCSI chain. Each

device in the chain must have a different SCSI ID. You will need to

change the SCSI ID on the CD-Writer Plus if the ID set at the factory is

already in use by another device.

How to Set the SCSI ID 7

What SCSI ID should I use for the CD-Writer Plus?

When you place Software Disc 1 in your CD-ROM and click Start

Installation, the software will check your system and recommend a

SCSI ID you can use on the CD-Writer Plus.

Example:

SCSI ID 3 is available.

Alternatively, if you have already installed the software, you can get a list

of all the detected SCSI devices in your computer and the IDs they use.

Click the Start button on your taskbar, select Programs, HP CD-

Writer Plus, Utilities, and select List SCSI Devices. Choose an

available SCSI ID for your CD-Writer Plus.

Example:

The following SCSI devices were detected:

0 --------------> Hard drive

1 --------------> CD-ROM

4 --------------> Tape drive

7 --------------> SCSI card

You could use SCSI ID 2, 3, 5, or 6 for your CD-Writer Plus.

How do I set the SCSI ID on the CD-Writer Plus once I know

which SCSI ID to use?

Locate the SCSI ID switch on the back of the CD-Writer Plus. Use a pen to

press the buttons on top or bottom of the SCSI ID switch. The ID setting

will roll forward or backward, depending on the button you press.

8Termination for Chains of SCSI Devices

Termination for Chains of SCSI Devices

What does termination mean?

Think of a pipe full of water. The pipe needs to have caps at both ends to

prevent the water from spilling out. The termination on a SCSI device is

analogous to the cap on the pipe. For a chain of SCSI devices to work

properly the devices at the ends of a SCSI chain need to be terminated.

Devices that are not at the ends of the chain must not be terminated.

How do I terminate the CD-Writer Plus?

The CD-Writer Plus adjusts its termination automatically.

NOTE: If the CD-Writer Plus is the last of several devices in a chain, disable

the termination on the device that was previously at the end of the chain. See

the documentation provided with that device to see how to disable the

termination.

The CD-Writer Plus installed at the end of a SCSI chain.

If you previously had only internal SCSI devices:

If you previously had only internal SCSI devices and the CD-Writer Plus

is the first external device in the chain, you may have to remove or

disable the termination on the SCSI card. While most newer SCSI cards

adjust automatically, consult the documentation that came with your

card to find out if you must disable the termination manually.

Different Types of SCSI Connectors 9

Graphic representation of a SCSI chain with an internal device.

Different Types of SCSI Connectors

The data cable connects the CD-Writer Plus (standard high-density 50-

pin SCSI connector) to the SCSI card or to another SCSI device in the

chain. Since the SCSI card can have several different types of connectors

you will need to use a combination of cables and/or adapters that fits

your particular system.

Two common situations follow:

The SCSI card has a 50-pin SCSI connector

Use a SCSI data cable with 50-pin connectors at both ends.

The SCSI card has a 68-pin SCSI connector

Connect a 68-pin to 50-pin adapter to a SCSI data cable that has 68-pin

connectors at both ends. The adapter terminates 18 pins, which are then

unavailable to devices connected after the adapter. For this reason,

connect the CD-Writer Plus after any devices in the chain that use 68

pins.
