that's the problem with these "continued with next message" feature. It
doesn't show you the continuation. You have to check it yourself. BTW how
many lines will it accept (autopilot) before it makes a continued
message?
Michael,
The last connector on the cable is the second 50 pin centronics, which
is the pass-thru. It doesn't need termination on it, the other two
connectors are female headers and are clamped directly to the ribbon,
there are no stub ribbons on the main ribbon. I'm using the exact cable
design with two SCSI devices, one tape the other syquest. The Syquest is
terminated and the pass-thru centronics is open. If you look in any
expansion box from GVP or any other pre-assembled unit with pass-thru
you'll find the exact same cable design. My CLtd external 5.25"
full-height ST-506 Priam has the same ribbon setup and it is a single
device that consumes the entire space of the same box as my duo setup and
its pass-thru is the same design.
