Adaptec 2940 ULTRA SCSI PCI 32BIT KIT AHA2940U-ROHS-KIT Manual Do Utilizador

Follow these instructions to install the host adapter:

Turn 

OFF

 power to the computer and peripheral 

devices and disconnect the power cords.

Remove the cover from the computer case.

Locate an unused 32-bit PCI expansion slot (the 
slot must support Bus Master data transfers); 
unscrew and remove the metal bracket that covers 
the card-slot opening. (Save the screw to use when 
securing the host adapter in your computer.)

PCI slots are shorter than ISA or EISA slots and 
are typically white. One of these may be a shared 
slot into which you can insert either an ISA/EISA 
board or a PCI board.

Insert the host adapter in the PCI expansion slot. 
Press it down firmly so that the contacts are 
securely seated in the slot.

When the host adapter is firmly seated in the 
expansion slot, secure the metal bracket of the host 
adapter with the screw you removed in step 3.

Do not replace the computer cover or reconnect your 
computer and peripherals to their power sources yet!

Before installing your SCSI devices, you should 
understand the basic SCSI concepts described in this 
section. The information will help you set up your 
host adapter and devices so they function properly.

Each device attached to the host adapter, as well as 
the host adapter itself, must have a unique SCSI ID 
number (0 to 7 for the AHA-2940Ultra, and 0 to 15 for 
the AHA-2940Ultra Wide). 

We recommend that you leave the host adapter set 
to its default setting of SCSI ID 7. If you need to 
change the host adapter SCSI ID, see Configuring the 
Host Adapter on page 7. To change the SCSI ID on
