Jack,
Well, I took the plunge and purchased SCSIworks! Now I'm wading through my
first attempt to connect multiple SCSI devices on to the same adapter (my PAS
16 card).
I only have a two-peripheral SCSI cable right now (a connector on each end plus
an additional plug in the middle). I got my Seagate ST4766 SCSI hard drive to
work solo just fine with the help of SCSIworks! Now I'm struggling to
simultaneously connect my NEC CDR-83J CD-ROM drive to the PAS-16 SCSI "chain."
Alas, however. no go! I suspect I might need to remove some kind of terminator
on the SCSI CD, but can't find anything in the MediaVision or NEC documentation
which describes how to do this.
Do you think I'm on the right track here? If so, can you suggest a source for
information on how I'd go about removing the SCSI terminator from my NEC
CDR-83J?
In a few days (when a longer and fancier 3-peripheral SCSI cable arrives), I'll
even try to get my Bernoulli box connected as well. (Iomega's documentaion
does inlude instructions on unterminating their drives).
Thanks for any help you may be able to offer,
Lee DeYoung
