Using the Adaptec SCSI Card and SCSI Devices
Connecting the LED Connector
(Optional feature) Most computers have an LED disk activity light
on the front panel of the system case. If you choose to disconnect
the cable from the LED connector on the motherboard and connect
it to the LED connector on the SCSI card as shown in the figure
below, the LED on the front panel of the computer will light
whenever there is activity on the SCSI bus.
Note: If you connect the LED cable to the SCSI card, the LED
disk activity light will no longer indicate disk activity on the
non-SCSI disk drives.
Overriding SCSI Termination Settings
You use SCSISelect to control the termination of the two SCSI
channels on an Adaptec SCSI Card. The default termination setting
for both channels is Automatic. This setting allows the SCSI card to
adjust SCSI termination automatically, depending on which
connectors have SCSI devices attached to them.
Regardless of the SCSISelect termination setting, the SCSI card
termination is always disabled when the power is turned off. If you
want SCSI card termination to be enabled when the power is
turned off, you must terminate the SCSI channels manually.
