Here's a question(s) for those of you living in those dark, scary days of pre-USB...
SCSI (sans i) has long served to connect a variety of peripherals to computer systems, but most commonly it appears in storage devices, such as hard drives or tape-backup drives. ISCSI builds upon. A SCSI controller, also called a host bus adapter (HBA), is a card or chip that allows a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) storage device to communicate with the operating system across a SCSI bus. The actual implementation of a SCSI controller varies by manufacturer. For internal SCSI peripherals, the SCSI ID usually is set by configuring a jumper on the peripheral. For external SCSI peripherals, the SCSI ID usually is set with a switch on the back of the peripheral. SCSI ID numbers don’t have to be sequential, as long as the SCSI host adapter card and each peripheral has a different number. Most SCSI commands will be called via scsiwrite, as they are simply passing data to the camera, however, some will be called via scsiread to receive data. The high level Command is more like a function, which has function name, arguments, and returned data. To achieve such task, several SCSI Commands are used in the following.
I have a s3200xl and I am trying to access it via SCSI. I have a PCI-e SCSI card in my desktop that I know works under Win7 64 as I can access a SCSI CD drive without problems but I can't use it to talk to my sampler.
When I connect my sampler, the computer says it's installing a driver ... thinks a bit and then says installation wasn't successful. I have tried turning the sampler on first and then booting the computer (correct way) and also trying it with the computer booted.-
So ... questions:
Does anyone know what this driver might be?
Do I have to configure my sampler in any special way?
If anyone here can talk to their sampler via SCSI, do you use it under Win7 or are you also using an old Win95/98 computer and SCSI card of the same vintage as the sampler?
Is there a SCSI 'fuse'???
