[. . . ] Connecting the LS-4500AF 4. 4 Setting the SCSI ID The SCSI ID for the LS-4500AF is set at "5" when the unit is shipped. If other SCSI devices are connected to your computer, make sure that the SCSI ID for the LS-4500AF is different from those assigned to other SCSI devices. SCSI ID Note that in the case of a host computer which has a built-in SCSI hard disk or built-in CD-ROM, the ID numbers of the host CPU and each SCSI device have already been assigned. If the IDs are the same, you must change the ID number of the other SCSI device or the ID of the LS-4500AF to avoid any conflict. Remarks · · To change the ID, confirm that the LS-4500AF power is off. As 7 has been assigned for the CPU and 0 has been assigned to the built-in hard disk for a Macintosh, and 0 and 7 have also been assigned to other personal computer systems, any number from 1 to 6 is recommended for the ID number. If the same ID numbers are assigned, the system might not function, or important data on the hard disk might be destroyed. It is therefore essential to check the ID numbers carefully before connecting the LS4500AF. · Nikon Film Scanner LS-4500AF User's Manual 21 5.
