SCSI Cable Presence SDR (Sensors 0xF4-0xF6)
These sensors track cable presence on each of the three SCSI channels. An assertion
event is logged each time the external cable is added/removed (no events are generated
for the internal cables). Readings indicate whether a cable is currently present.
The actual detection is done through an 8575 expander on the SCSI backplane, which is
powered by V5P0, not standby voltage therefore, when power is off, these sensors must
return no reading at all (i.e. completion code 0xCE).
