VIDAR Film Digitizer Installation Guide
Terminate the SCSI bus
The film digitizer has two SCSI port connectors, enabling it to be placed
in the middle or at the end of a SCSI chain. VIDAR strongly
recommends that you install the digitizer at the end of a SCSI chain,
and that you not
change the factory SCSI termination setting.
Note: If you cannot install the digitizer at the end of a SCSI
chain, please contact VIDAR Technical Support for instructions
(+1.703.471.7070 or medtech@vidar.com).
Note: When the film digitizer is at the end of the SCSI chain,
the SCSI termination switch must be set for SCSI termination.
Consult your SCSI controller manual regarding proper use of
termination.
WARNING: Do not connect two SCSI controllers (i.e., two
computers) to the digitizer.
If you determine that the film digitizer’s SCSI termination is set for no
internal termination (lower picture below), here is how to change the
setting to activate internal termination:
1. Locate the SCSI termination switches
on the back of the digitizer (location is
shown on the next page).
2. Slide Switch 1 to the up position.
(Switch 2 has no function.)
