All devices on a SCSI bus (except perhaps that 'single initiator bus
mentioned by Craig from ICD) have to have a SCSI ID. It's part of the
spec. Else it couldn't "grab" the bus for a request…since it couldn't
identify itself to the other devices on the bus. However, there's nothing
in the spec that says the Host Adapter (which is what the WordSync is) has
to have it's ID user selectable. It can easily be permanently set at any
ID number the manufacturer prefers, probably 7.
