    STORAGEEXPRESS(TM) SYSTEM: TESTING THE SCSI ID SWITCH

    
       This test is used to determine if the switches on the back of the
    
       peripheral unit are going bad.  This may be the cause of a tape drive
    
       not showing up in Central Console even if it is connected or not
    
       initializing on the LED on the CPU unit.  It is usually the 2nd tape
    
       drive that exhibits this problem.  Bypassing the SCSI ID switch will
    
       solve these problems.
    
    
    
         1. Disconnect the SCSI ID cable (the 6 pin connector on the back of
    
            the tape drive).
    
    
    
         2. Set switches on the back of the tape drive to the settings for your
    
            drive described below:
