<EM>&gt; Can some fill me in. What is high byte termination.

<P>You scsi controller uses a wide=16 bit wide bus. The scanner uses an 8 bit wide bus.
<BR>
Both ends of an scsi chain have to be terminated. The highbyte ends at the 16-&gt;8 bit
<BR>
(wide-&gt;fast) converter so it has to be terminated there.
<BR>
<P>The problem is that the maximum cable length of a ultra scsi chain is 150 cm
<BR>
(sum of internal + external length). If you exceed this length you will get problems
<BR>
and may crash data on a scsi harddisk.
<BR>
<P>Take a look at available cables/adapters.
<BR>
External devices normally use 50 pin (old=not mini) centronix adapters.
<BR>
May be it would be better to get a 50-&gt;25 pin connector cable
<BR>
and a 68(16bit)-&gt;50(8bit) converter with included termination.
<BR>
<P>Bye
