1 Th is inst allat ion gui de tell s you how to insta ll eith er the A dap tec ® Po we r D o m a i n ® 29160 or 29160N SCSI PCI card in the P ower Mac in to sh ® and how to connect inter nal and external SC SI devices to it. The 29160/29160N card is fully co mpatible with Mac OS 8.
2 I nstallation G uide T ake the following precautions while you work with either the Adapt ec P ow erDomain 29160 or the A daptec P o werDo main 29160N: 1.
3 Adaptec P ower Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N The box that con tains the Adaptec P o werDomain 29160/29160N kit includes the item s pictured below . The cables are located in compartments at each end of the box. T wo internal cables are included with the 29160 package; two come with the 29160N.
4 I nstallation G uide The following illustration identifies the connectors on the Adapt ec P owe rDomain 29160 card: The following illustration identifies the connectors on the Adapt ec Po werDomain .
5 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Tu r n OFF the power to the com puter and an y attached devices. If yo u ’ ve not already done so, plug the power cord into a c onv e- nient electrical outlet. T ouch the metal PCI ac cess c overs on the bac k of the comput er to discharge static electricit y from y our body and clothes.
6 I nstallation G uide Locate an empt y PCI slot. Remove the screw t hat se cures it s por t acce ss cover . Set the sc rew aside; you ’ ll use it later . Rem o ve t he p or t a cce s s cove r. T o p revent injur y f rom elect rical shock, be sure to com p l et e St e p 4 b e fo r e y ou co n t in u e! W AR NING S TEP 5 5 .
7 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Re m ove the A dap tec P owerDo main 29160 or 29160N from its antist atic ba g. S TEP 8 T o prev ent damage to the A daptec P owe rDoma in 29160/ 2916 0N, a lways hand le the PCI c ard by its metal bracket o r its edges.
8 I nstallation G uide P osition the SCSI PCI ca rd co nne cto r ov er the PCI slot. Align the metal brack et w ith the port acces s opening. Firmly press the Adaptec P owerDo main 29160/29160N all the way into the s lot. The SCSI PCI card should stand perpendicular to the PC I slot .
9 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Y ou can conn ect as ma ny as 1 5 SCS I de vi ces — such as hard disk driv es, scanners, and CD- ROM driv es — to each Ada pte c P ower- Domain 29160/29160N installed in your P owe r Macintosh.
10 I nstallation G uide Sett ing SCS I IDs A SCSI ID uniquely identifies each SCSI device on the SCSI bus and determines priorit y wh en two or mor e dev ices are tryin g to use the SCSI bus at the same time.
11 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N T erminating th e SCSI Bus T o ensure reliable co mmunication on the SCSI bus, ter min ato rs must be installed (or enabled) on the devices at the physic al ends of the SCSI bus. The t ermina tors on all devices between the ph ys- ical ends of the SCSI bus must be rem ov ed (or disabled).
12 I nstallation G uide Bus Segments on the Adapt ec SCSI Car d The Adapt ec P owerDomain 29160/29160N SCSI PCI cards fea- ture Adap tec ’ s SpeedFlex technology . SpeedFlex technology allow s ne wer , f as ter L V D SCSI de v ices and sl ower SE SCS I de vi ces to ru n sim ulta neo usl y on di ff erent s eg ments of the S CSI b us.
13 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Locate the 68-pin internal L VD SCSI cable, w hich should look similar to one of the cables sho wn b elow . Cables can hav e tw isted wires (first example) or flat, laminated wires (sec ond example). S TEP 1 Inter nal ca ble connec - tors are keyed or shaped so y ou can attach them only one way .
14 I nstallation G uide Plug the nonterm inated end of the cable into the L VD/SE or L VD SCSI co nnector on the Adapte c P owerDomai n 29160 (first ill us- tration below) or 29160N (secon d illustration below).
15 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Plug the remaining co n nector(s) into the internal L VD SCSI devices. After you have conn ecte d al l your inte r- nal L VD SCSI devices to the A dap tec P owerDomain 29160 or 29160N, pl ug a powe r cord bundle from the compute r into e ach dev ice.
16 I nstallation G uide W hen you ha ve installed all your internal devices, close the cov er or replace the c over on the computer case. (R efer to the instruc- tions in Setting U p Y our P ower Macintosh .
17 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Conn ec ting I nternal 50-Pin F ast/Ultra-SE S CSI Dev ices U se a 50-pin internal Ultr a SCSI cable to connect Fast/Ultr a-SE SCSI dev ices that have standard 50-pin connectors to the 50-pi n inter nal Fast/ Ult ra -SE conn ec tor on the Adaptec P owerD om ain 29160 or 29160N.
18 I nstallation G uide Plug the long end of the cable into the 50-pin internal Fast /Ultra-SE SCSI co nnecto r on the Ada ptec P owerDo main 29160 or 29160N, as shown in the following illustrations. Plug the other end of the cable int o a terminated internal Fast/U ltra-SE SCSI device.
19 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N T o conne ct a se cond inter nal Fast/Ultr a-S E SCSI d ev ice, plug t he middle connecto r of the cable into the dev ice.
20 I nstallation G uide If y ou wan t to instal l external dev ices, go to the secti on Con n ec t - ing Exter nal 5 0-pin Fast/Ultra-SE SCSI De v ices (2916 0N only) on page 25 or Connec tin g Ext er nal 6 8-pin L VD /SE SC SI De v i ces (29160 only) on page 22 .
21 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Plug the other end of the cable to a ter min ated Ultr a/Fast W i de SCSI dev ice . If y ou have other Ultr a/Fast Wide SCSI dev ices, attach them to the connecto rs between the two ends of the cable. Be sure these other devices are un ter mi nated .
22 I nstallation G uide If y ou w ill not insta ll extern al devices, c onnect all power c a bles t o the com puter and an y previou sly att ached e xternal devices, and plug the cables into an electrical outlet. T urn ON all external dev i ces fi rst; the n tu rn ON the compute r .
23 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Connect the other end of t he external SCSI cable t o a SCSI con- nector on the back of an external SCSI de vice. If you are installing only one external device, terminat e the dev ice and skip to S tep 4 . Connect other ext ernal devices by cabling each device to the pre- vious one, as shown below .
24 I nstallation G uide Connect power ca bles to all exte rnal dev ices and to the co mputer , and plug the cables into an electrical outlet. W hen you hav e in stalled your internal and external dev ices, turn ON all exte rnal devic es; then tu rn ON the comput er .
25 Adaptec P o wer Dom ain 29160/ 2916 0N Conn ec ting External 50-pin F ast/Ultra-SE SCSI Dev ices (29160N onl y) U se a 50-pin ex ternal Fast/ Ultra-SE cable to a ttach ext ernal Fast /Ultra-SE SCSI devices that hav e standar d 50-pin c onnectors to the Fast /Ul tr a-S E ex tern al co nnec tor of th e Ada pte c P owerDomain 29160N.
26 I nstallation G uide Con nect other ex ternal F ast/Ultra-SE S CSI devices b y attachin g each device to the previous one w ith a 50- pin external SCSI cable until all dev ices ar e connected. The device at the end of the chain must b e the o nly e xter nal de vi ce th at is ter mi nate d.
