SAMPLING CHP. 14
Adaptec 1540/1542CF does not recognize a sampler
If the Adaptec 1540/1542CF does not recognize the sampler, a change may be required in the configuration
of the Adaptec controller. Some samplers do not operate when the
Reset SCSI Bus at Power-On option of the
Adaptec controller is turned on. This is the default operation for the 1540/1542CF and must be turned off to
allow the system to work with the sampler.
Note:
Turning off the Reset SCSI Bus at Power-On option
may keep other devices on the SCSI chain from resetting
correctly when using the system’s soft boot feature. Other
systems may freeze temporarily. To guarantee that devices
are reset when rebooting with this option turned off, use the
system’s reset button or power-down and up to reset the
system.
SCSI/SMDI-compatible menu is not displayed under Windows 98SE and Windows Me
Verify proper SCSI termination and check for multiple devices on the SCSI chain using the same SCSI ID.
If this fails to solve the problem, Adaptec SCSI card users may need to update the system’s mini-port drivers.
Adaptec has a series of updated mini-port drivers available for Windows 98SE and Windows Me on the
Web.
After you download the file, you must create a temporary directory or folder on the system and run the
WIN95MPD.EXE program. Follow the directions in the readme.txt file to update the drivers for the Adaptec
SCSI card.
