Trantor T348 MiniSCSI Plus Parallel
HBAs
Solaris Device Driver:
trantor
Device Type:
SCSI
Adapter:
Trantor T348
Preconfiguration Information
The T348 ends in a male SCSI-1 connector, for plugging into a SCSI-1 device. To
connect the T348 to a SCSI-2 device, use a SCSI-1 to SCSI-2 cable (which has a male
SCSI-1 connector on one end and a male SCSI-2 connector on the other end) and a
SCSI-1 female-to-female adapter (to connect the male end of the T348 to the male end
of the SCSI-1 to SCSI-2 cable).
Known Problems and Limitations
The Trantor MiniSCSI Plus adapter uses electrical power from the TERMPWR
signal on the SCSI cable. The adapter will not work unless the first (or only)
device connected to it supplies TERMPWR. If you have difficulty using the
adapter with the Solaris operating environment, see the “Troubleshooting Notes”
section of MiniSCSI Plus User Guide or consult your Trantor dealer.
Because of low data transfer rates, do not use simultaneous multiple SCSI devices
or tape blocks longer than 512 bytes.
The T348 and attached devices must be plugged in and powered on at boot time
to be available during that session.
If the SCSI devices attached to the T348 fail to respond after a reconfiguration boot
and the parallel port had previously been used for a different device, do a second
reconfiguration boot.
The Trantor T338 and T358 are not supported.
The Exabyte EXB-8500 and EXB-8200 tape drives do not work in the Solaris
operating environment when connected to the Trantor T348.
The Solaris operating environment does not support concurrent use of other
parallel devices on the same port as the Trantor T348 or on the T348 pass-through
port. To switch between the T348 and another parallel port device, such as a
