Adaptec SCSI RAID 2010S/2015S Installation Guide
SCSI termination is configured through the SMOR utility or from 
the Configure Host Bus Adapter window in Adaptec Storage 
Management. The controller has only these termination settings: 
The following figure shows various SCSI cabling examples for a 
single bus. Terminate your SCSI devices as shown in the examples, 
ensuring that the devices at the ends of the cables are terminated, 
and the devices in the middle are not terminated. If only one cable 
is attached, then one end is the controller, and must have its 
termination enabled, as indicated in the figure where the circled T 
is in the controller.
Note: 
Each channel being used on a multichannel ZCR adapter must 
be terminated properly for its configuration
. The figure shows use 
with a motherboard channel having both an internal and 
external connection. Your motherboard may differ.
Setting Function
On Default—Enables the controller termination built.
Off Disables the built-in controller termination. Use only if 
the controller will not be situated at one end of the cable.
