<EM>&gt; Controller that is equipped with the 53c810 chip. I always read that this
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; card was a good choice to use for scanning, but I can't get it to work
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; properly. I can get linux to detect the card, and a CD writer attached to the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; internal bus works without a problem. But as soon as I connect the scanner to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the 50 pin external connector with a 50 - 50 SCSI II cable, nothing works
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; anymore. The termination jumper on the card doesn't help. The scsi driver
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; recognizes the scanner as &quot;QALLEP&quot; instead of &quot;SCANNER&quot; and it reports a
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; parity error. Is there anything I can do?
</EM><BR>
<P>Parity errors are typical for a bus with improper termination or too long
<BR>
cables. Your 53c810 operates at 10MHz Fast-SCSI by default, so the sum
<BR>
of _all_ cables (including hidden stub cables inside external SCSI boxes)
<BR>
should be 3 meters maximum. You also need active termination on both ends.
<BR>
It might work with passive termination, but don't count on it. In your
<BR>
case, the CD writer and the scanner must both be terminated, and the SCSI
<BR>
adapter not. CD writers usually have internal terminators that are
<BR>
activated by a jumper. The scanner most likely has no terminator built
<BR>
in, so you have to buy one for the second connector (25 pin) on it, or a
<BR>
pass-through terminator for the first (50 pin) connector. Both kinds
<BR>
cost about $5-$10 (I don't know the prices in the US. I pay about 10 DM
<BR>
here in Germany at a large electronics store. Computer stores usually
<BR>
charge 25-30 DM.) If your bus still works unreliable after fixing all
<BR>
that, set it to operate at 5MHz asynchronous (ncr53c8xx=sync:255).
<BR>
<P>Regards,
<BR>
