Connecting to the Host
Computer
Connect the AIT autoloader and the host computer with
a SCSI cable. This section explains general connection
steps. To connect, use a Wide Ultra2 SCSI LVD cable
commonly sold in stores. However, when using a model
equipped with the AIT-5, AIT-4, AIT-3 Ex, AIT-3, or
AIT-2 Turbo drive, use an Ultra 160 SCSI LVD cable.
The autoloader side uses the 68-pin half pitch connector.
When connecting other SCSI devices along with the
AIT autoloader, refer to "Connecting SCSI Peripheral
Devices" in Chapter 2 of the "Operating Instructions"
(PDF).
Caution
• Do not connect the AIT autoloader to an HVD (High
Voltage Differential) SCSI bus. If connected, the
autoloader or other devices on the SCSI bus may be
damaged.
• When connecting the Wide SCSI cable, turn off all of
the connecting devices, including the AIT autoloader
and the host computer.
• When connecting the AIT autoloader as the last device
on the SCSI bus, be sure to attach the provided
terminator.
• In LVD (Low Voltage Differential) SCSI, make the
total length of the SCSI cable (internal and external),
which connects the host computer and the device at
the end of the SCSI bus, shorter than 12 m (39.4 ft.).
(The length of the AIT autoloader internal cable is
0.75 m (29.5 in.).)
• SCSI cables cannot be branched.
Notes
• For information about the SCSI bus, refer to "SCSI
Specifications" in the "Appendix" of the "Operating
Instructions" (PDF).
• Prepare the necessary SCSI cables. For information
about SCSI cable specifications, refer to "SCSI Cable
and Terminator Specifications" in the "Appendix" of
the "Operating Instructions" (PDF).
1
Confirm that the host computer and AIT autoloader
are off.
