[. . . ] One set must be chosen according to where the computer allows the scanner to be positioned in the drive bay. Most computers require that the bottom set of mounting holes be used. Position the rails at the bottom of the scanner and, while holding the scanner, see if the scanner will slide into the bay rail slots. The guide rail mounting holes The guide rails have a tapered end and a non-tapered end. The tapered end is mounted at the rear of the scanner to facilitate the scanner's insertion into the drive bay slot. The non-tapered end is mounted at the front of the scanner. This flat end allows the scanner to be locked into position once the scanner is installed. Certain holes on the rails are elongated vertically, allowing precise adjustment of the position of the rails with respect to the scanner. The rails have a set of horizontal holes that can be used to position the rails forward or backward with respect to the scanner. Sliding the scanner into the drive bay Before the scanner is inserted into the drive bay, insure that the DIP switch block is set correctly. In rare cases, it may be necessary to change the configuration of the DIP switch block. On no account force the scanner into the drive bay. It should have a snug fit, yet it should not be necessary to apply excessive force when pushing in the scanner. If it does not slide in easily, reposition the guide rails or visually check the drive bay to see what might be blocking the path of the scanner. - 30 - Installing the internal-mount scanner in the drive bay Step 1--Connect the SCSI cable to the scanner Connect one end of the flat 50-pin SCSI cable to the 50-pin SCSI connector on the rear of the internal-mount scanner as shown below. Insure that Pin 1 of the cable is aligned with Pin 1 of the scanner. The connectors on both the scanner and the cable are protected with a protruding tab to force the connector to mount properly. Note that Pin 1 on the scanner connector and the cable connector is marked with a triangle, and the wire associated with Pin 1 has a red stripe on it. Do not force the cable connector into the scanner. It should snap into place with moderate force. Make sure that the connector on the cable is positioned parallel to the connector on the scanner before applying force. This will reduce the risk of bending any pins. Make sure that Pin 1 marked on the scanner connector mates with Pin 1 of the flat cable connector. Step 2--Terminating the SCSI chain The internal-mount scanner needs SCSI termination. Refer to "5. 4 Terminating the SCSI chain" in this chapter for more information. Step 3--Loosen the lock down screws On one or both sides of the drive bay opening are locking screws.
