AW: [emax] Re: Emax II ... Heeeeelp

2003-11-27 by Dr.-Ing. Christian Gritzner

Hi David,

I am not sure if I have a CD300 or CD300+ (I think it is the non-plus
version).
But first check the ID number of your drive which may not be 0 (reserved for
floppy) or 1 (if you have a HDD). Check also if all (!) SCSI devices are
powered on before you switch on your Emax. Make sure that the drive is well
terminated.
I first tried the CD300 alone with a termination plug and now together with
a Iomega ZIP 100MB and an EZ Flyer 230MB in a line. The ZIP is at the end of
the line because it has a switchable termination (which works with this
setup).

Hope I could help!
Best wishes,
Chris

Dear Chris,

I just got an Apple CD 300 plus and I just can't make it work on my
Emax II.  Did you do any particular setup?

Many thanks,

David
