- ============================================
-
-
- -------------------
- Product Description
- -------------------
-
- The MCS-600/700 has been designed to provide easy "Plug and Play"
- installation.
-
- The MCS-600/700 supports all SCSI disk drives that conform to the
- ANSI standard "Common Command Set". The MCS-600/700 ROM BIOS is
- designed to identify and properly support the type of SCSI disk
- drive it is installed with. The MCS-600/700 will work with IBM
- PS/2 MicroChannel family and compatible computers.
-
-
- ---------------------
- Physical Installation
- ---------------------
-
- Follow the IBM instructions for removing the cover and inserting
- the MCS-600/700 in your MicroChannel computer.
-
- The MCS-700 external connection to a SCSI device is via the high
- density connector at the head of the board.
-
- The MCS-600 external connection to a SCSI device is via the 25-pin
- D-SUB connector with Apple SCSI Pin-Out at the head of the board.
- The HCA-120 cable must be used with this connector.
-

- fit your application.

- --------------------
- System Configuration
- --------------------
-
- Boot up the system using the "Reference Diskette" that came with your
- MicroChannel computer. Make a copy of the diskette using the
- "Backup the Reference Diskette" option from the main menu.
-
- Next, copy the Future Domain @6127.ADF file to the backup copy of
- your "Reference Diskette". This allows configuration of the
- MCS-600/700 SCSI controller via the Reference Diskette's setup
- utilities.
-
- Once completed, boot from the backup copy of your Reference Diskette
- and select the "Set Configuration" option. Follow the instructions
- for setting up controllers in the MicroChannel System. The MCS-600/700
- will show up on the menu.
-
-
- Note : The "Automatic Configuration" option may not always correctly
- resolve system resource conflicts. Therefore, we recommend users to
- select the "Set Configuration" option instead.
