Does anyone know how long the internal SCSI bus of a Personal IRIS is? In other words, of the six meters allowed for the total bus length, how much can be safely added to the external SCSI connector? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Dempsey voice: (619) 534-0208 Dept. of Chemistry Computer Facility, 0314 UUCP: ucsd!sdempsey University of Calif. at San Diego BITNET: sdempsey@ucsd 9500 Gilman Drive INTERNET: sdempsey@ucsd.edu La Jolla, CA 92093-0314 fax: (619) 534-0058

We are having trouble with the external (centronics) SCSI
on a IRIS 4D/340. Is there any reason why we cannot connect
and internal ribbon cable from the internal SCSI to a
50-pin centronics connector? Where is a good place to get
these cables?
