I apologize for sending the attachments, forgot about the charges that<br>
|
||
others occur. I was just being impatient. Won't happen again.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Anyway, back to businees...I disconnected the tape drive internally from<br>
|
||
the controller card. I enabled termination on the card. The kernel<br>
|
||
reports that termination is active. The kernel also reports that the<br>
|
||
card is an Ultra SCSI card, however my documentation does not mention<br>
|
||
that. In any event, I converted the length of my SCSI cable from feet to<br>
|
||
centimeters, and since its a 4' cable, that should be 121.92 cm, so I<br>
|
||
should be under the limit. No luck, same issue. <br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
I guess my next step is to go out and find a better terminator to put on<br>
|
||
the scanner?<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Thanks again and sorry again...<br>
