Figure A-1. External Terminator Installation
Figure A-1 shows two different types of external SCSI connectors.
Configuration"A" shows an extended external SCSI connector and bail locks for holding
the terminator in place. This configuration is used on almost all of Alpha Micro’s
currently available product. The terminator is installed by plugging it onto the connector
and then latching the bail locks into the side notches on the terminator.
Configuration"B" shows a flush mounted external SCSI connector. The only Alpha
Micro products currently using flush mounted external SCSI connectors are the pedestal
(also known as the "Classic") chassis, and the AM-1000 and AM-1200 upgraded
chassis. In this configuration, the terminator inserts into a cutout in the sheet metal and
onto the SCSI connector. The terminator is held in place with two #4screws and
washers.
