PLASMON LASER MAGNETIC STORAGE - LF 6602 USER MANUAL

WARNING
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the LF 6602 to rain or
moisture. Refer servicing to qualified technicians.
In case of fire or other emergency, isolate the units from the main
power by disconnecting the power plugs from their site power
receptacles. In situations where disconnecting the plugs is not
possible or practical, disconnect the system main power to isolate the
units from the main power.
Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous laser
radiation.
Do not stare directly into the laser beam or its reflection on any
reflecting mirror-like surface. Invisible laser radiation can be emitted if
the unit is open and safety interlocks are defeated.
SCSI BUS CONSIDERATIONS
Because the SCSI bus is limited to eight devices including the host, a maximum of three LF 6602's can be
connected to a host computer in a series configuration using the appropriate SCSI controller and cable
options.
The length of the SCSI interface cables used to interconnect the LF 6602 with other SCSI devices is
dictated by the type of SCSI controller installed in each LF 6600 drive.
When the single-ended interface controller is used on all SCSI devices, the total length of the SCSI
interface cable cannot exceed 6 m(19.5 ft). (Plasmon LMS does not recommend single-ended fast
synchronous.) When a differential interface controller is used on all SCSI devices, the total SCSI interface
cable length cannot exceed 25 m (82 ft).
NOTE
The internal SCSI cable for each LF 6600 is approximately 120 mm
(4.8 in.). The SCSI cable connecting the LF 6600's is 105 cm (3 1/2 ft).
These distances must be considered as part of the total SCSI cable
length.
No stub connections are permitted.
The SCSI interface cabling used to interconnect an LF 6602 to a host can be daisy chained between SCSI
devices as illustrated in the next figure. One interface cable is required to interface each pair of SCSI
devices.
