2.Installation  
This chapter explains how to connect a SCSI device to the U2SCXU.  
2-1.Connecting the U2SCXU to a SCSI device  
Follow the steps through to connect your SCSI device to the U2SCXU:  
The fig.1 shows how to connect a terminator and  
the U2SCXU when you connect only one SCSI  
device.  
Terminator  
Fig. 1  
The fig.2 shows how to connect a terminator and  
SCSI cable and the U2SCXU when you connect

1)Make sure the SCSI device is in Power-OFF state.  
2) Decide whether you daisy-chain SCSI devices or not.  
2-1)If you connect two or more SCSI devices, set them as follows:  
Daisy-chain them and attach an external active terminator to the last  
SCSI device, as Fig.2 shows. Turn off the terminator switches on all of  
the SCSI devices if the SCSI devices have internal terminator switches.  
If you are not sure how to turn off terminator switches, refer to  
the user’s manual that accompanied your SCSI device.  
2-2)If you connect only one SCSI device, set it as follows:  
If the SCSI device doesn’t have an internal terminator switch, attach an  
external active terminator to the SCSI device; Otherwise, turn on  
an internal terminator switch. If you are not sure how to turn off  
the terminator switch, refer to the user’s manual that accompanied your  
SCSI device.  
3)Next, connect the U2SCXU to the first(or only) SCSI device.  
If you have a SCSI device with a Low-Density Centronics 50 pin  
or DB25 connector, use an adapter available from us.  
In such a case, refer to Chapter 6.  
4)Make sure each SCSI device has a SCSI ID except 7. You can usually  
change a SCSI ID with a switch on the back of SCSI devices. For more  
information, refer to the user’s manual that accompanied your SCSI device.  
5)If you use a PC, proceed to Chapter 2-2.  
If you use a Mac, proceed to Chapter 2-8.

the system will freeze up when you connect the MO to the PC.  
1)If your PC is powered down, start it now.  
2)Turn on the SCSI devices.  
3)Connect the U2SCXU to an available USB port, as Fig.3 shows.  
A LED on the U2SCXU will come on. If the LED doesn’t come on,  
refer to Chapter 4-10.

4-10.When the power LED doesn’t come on(Win/Mac)  
Check the following points:  
1)Be sure the SCSI device is powered on properly.  
2)Turn off the SCSI device and make sure the U2SCXU is attached firmly, and  
turn on the device again.  
If the LED doesn’t come on even if you have done the above checking,  
refer to the user’s document on the SCSI device. Though SCSI specifications  
require Term-Power output capability as an optional, some SCSI devices  
such as iomega Zip drive may not be implemented this capability. If your  
SCSI device doesn’t have this Term-Power output capability, you must  
connect an OPTIONAL AC adapter(sold separately) as shown below or  
daisy-chain a SCSI device which has this Term-Power output capability.  
But, if you are a Mac user, don’t daisy-chain another SCSI device. Windows  
users only can daisy-chain another SCSI device. If you are a Mac user, you  
must connect the optional AC adapter.  
For purchasing information, refer to Chapter 6.
