ULTRA2 SCSI LVD EXPANDER

2. Introduction

2.1 Overview

The Ultra2 SCSI LVD Expander is a Low Voltage Differential (LVD) 16-bit Wide

SCSI-bus extender. The Expander effectively divides the SCSI bus into two LVD or

SE (single-ended) segments—one segment connected to each of its two ports. The

Expander translates signals, and facilitates communication, between the segments.

When used in conjunction with an Ultra2 SCSI host adapter, the Expander

maintains backward compatibility with previous generations of devices on single-

ended segments, while retaining optimal performance and maximum cable length

of LVD. The Expander can also be used with an Ultra SCSI (“SCSI-3,” 40-MB-per-

second) host adapter to add Ultra2 devices to its bus and increase cable lengths.

Because it performs only signal-level translation, the Expander operates

transparently; users will hardly know it’s there. It places no limits on the quantity or

location of SCSI devices beyond the normal limits of the SCSI specification.

The Expander’s ports are “multimode,” meaning they can operate in single-

ended or LVD mode. (This selection is controlled automatically by a sensing signal

[DIFFSENSE] provided by the SCSI devices on the bus. As soon as you connect it

to the bus, the Expander will autoconfigure its ports as necessary.) Because of this,

you can use the Expander to effectively double the length of a single-ended SCSI

bus, or to access LVD peripherals farther away from your host adapter than the

normal maximum of 12 m (40 ft.). You can also connect two Expanders point-to-

point across as much as 24 m (80 ft.) of cable, as long as there aren’t any other

SCSI devices in-line between them.

CHAPTER 2: Introduction

The Expander supports all current SCSI operations and can handle data rates up

to 20, 40, or 80 megabytes per second, depending on the type of bus it’s

communicating with. Figure 2-1 shows a typical Expander application. If you’d like

to examine a block diagram of the Expander, refer to Appendix B.

2.2 Features

• Supports legacy and Ultra2 SCSI devices on the same bus with LVD-to-LVD

extension or SE-to-LVD conversion:

– Fully backward-compatible with SCSI-1, SCSI-2 [Fast SCSI], and SCSI-3

[Ultra SCSI], and can be used with either Narrow or Wide buses.

– Has switchable internal termination.

• Transfers data at up to 80 Megabytes per second (on a 16-bit Wide bus) in

either direction.

• Supports as many as 16 SCSI devices.

• Does not require software or a SCSI ID.

• Can be used to extend your LVD bus as far as 25 m (82 ft.), or to create an

LVD link that extends your single-ended bus.

• Can be daisychained to achieve even higher distances.

• Transparent operation—requires no software and no SCSI ID.

• Supports arbitration, parity, disconnect/reconnect, and sync or async data

transfer.

• Can act as either a target or initiator on either connected SCSI-bus segment.

• LEDs show power status and bus activity at all times.

• Can optionally provide TERMPWR (terminator power) to either or both

attached bus segments, regardless of whether they’re LVD or SE. Handles

TERMPWR with a resetting circuit protector and backflow-preventing diodes.

2.3 The Complete Package

Besides the Ultra2 SCSI LVD Expander itself, you should have received its power

cord and this manual. If anything is missing or arrived damaged, call Black Box

right away.

CHAPTER 3: Configuration and Internal LEDs

3. Configuration and Internal LEDs

3.1 Opening the Expander

To configure the Ultra2 SCSI LVD Expander’s termination, or to get visual

confirmation of more information than the external LED can provide, you’ll need

to access the Expander’s internal jumpers and LEDs.

CAUTION!

To avoid receiving a potentially hazardous electric shock, make sure the

Expander is turned OFF and unplugged when you open it. You might

have to temporarily turn the unit ON after it has been opened in order to

observe its internal LEDs—be very careful if you do this!—but never

open the unit while the unit is ON.

Conversely, even while the Expander is OFF, you need to avoid

damaging its circuit board with static electricity. If possible, stand on an

anti-static mat when you open the Extender and wear anti-static gloves

or wrist straps. At the very least, ground yourself before you open the

Expander by touching something metal.

Take these steps to open the Expander:

1. Use a small Phillips-head screwdriver to unscrew the screws embedded in each

of the Expander’s four rubber feet. Remove the feet.

2. You’ll see the edges of the Expander‘s wraparound housing on the bottom of

the unit right next to the holes where the feet used to be. If necessary, gently

pry one of these edges slightly outward so that the housing doesn’t fit so

snugly.

3. Carefully slide the housing toward the back of the unit and remove it.
