Troubleshooting Checklist - SCSI (AHA-2940/2940W Adapters)
Most problems that occur during installation result from errors in preparing and connecting devices on the SCSI bus.
Answer these questions first if a problem occurs during installation:
- Are the power cables and SCSI cables properly connected ?
- Is the Host adapter firmly seated and secure in a 5-volt PCI slot tha is capable of bus mastering ?
- Is the SCSI cable installed correctly throughout the SCSI bus ?
- Are the PCI bus slot parameters set correctly in the computer's Setup program ?
NOTE: The PCI bus is designed to assign the IRQ port address, and BIOS address settings. You may need to assign some
of these values manually in the Setup program.
- Is each adapter, including the host adapter, set to a unique SCSI ID (0-7 for the AHA-2940 and 0-15 for the AHA-2940W) ?
- Is the termination set correctly ?
