[comp.os.vms] Exabyte - VMS

wiren@eva.slu.se (03/14/90)

   We have just got an Exabyte EXB-8200 intended as a backup-medium for a 
MicroVAX 3100-cluster running VMS V5.3. According to some "rumor" the switches
inside the Exabyte must be in a certain position to agree with a VAX-system.

   SW1 (3 DIP-switches) determines the SCSI-id. No problem there. 

   SW2 (8 DIP-switches) all set to off on delivery. The above-mentioned "rumor"
says that three of the switches should be on. What switches and why? We have
no documentation at all concerning the function of these switches, so all
information will be much appreciated.
