Section 1

Introduction

NOTE: This installation guide applies to thefollowing QLogic host adapter boards,

collectively referred to as the QLA12160 board unless otherwise noted:

■QLA12160/33 (DC8110402-06)

■QLA12160/66 (DC8110402-07)

The QLA12160 board (wide, low voltage differential [LVD]), dual port,

Ultra3, 64-bit PCI) contains the ISP12160A/33 or ISP12160A/66 chip.

1.1

Product Description

The QLA12160 board is an intelligent, high-performance, DMA bus master SCSI

hostadapterdesignedforhigh-endsystems.Theintelligenceandperformanceare

derived from the ISP chip, making the QLA12160 board a high performance host

adapter. The ISP chip combines a powerful RISC processor, two SCSI executive

processors (SXPs), and a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) local bus

interface in asingle-chip solution.The QLA12160 board supports bootabledevices

(hard disk drivesand CD-ROM drives) and can be used with tape drivesand other

SCSI devices. Installation of the QLA12160 board is quick and easy.

The QLA12160 board is for use only with UL listed computers that have detailed

instructions for user installation of accessory cards.

The QLA12160 board is designed to operate with multiple data transfer speeds

under SCSI specifications (see table 1-1).

NOTE: Only single-ended and LVD devices (Ultra2 and Ultra3) can be connected

to the QLA12160 board.

Features 1 –Introduction

1-2 DC8151101-00 C

TheQLA12160boardsupportsUltra,Ultra2,and Ultra3transferspeeds.Theboard

can connect computers to other computers or to peripheral devices such as

CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and hard disk drives. SCSI allows connecting the

following numbers and types of devices to a single port by daisy chaining:

■15 fast, wide SCSI devices

■15 Ultra2 or Ultra3, LVD SCSI devices

■6 Ultra SCSI devices (QLA12160 board in single-ended mode)

A daisy chain is a series of connections where the first device is connected to the

host adapter board, the second device is connected to the first device, and so on.

A daisy chain can be created either by using a daisy chain cable (one cable with

multiple connectors) or by using multiple cables. Each SCSI device must have a

unique SCSI ID.

Because SCSI allows the computer to use a standard set of commands to

communicate with peripherals, adding a variety of peripherals to your computer

using one host adapter board is easy.

Section 2

Hardware Installation

2.1

Preinstallation Procedures

Before installing your QLA12160 board, take the time to read this instruction guide.

CAUTION!

■Your computer, the QLA12160 board, and each SCSI device must

be configured properly for optimum performance. Refer to the

appropriate documentation to configure your computer and SCSI

devices.

■PayparticularattentiontotheSCSIIDassignment.TheQLA12160

board is set at the factory for SCSI ID 7. The QLA12160 board

and each SCSI device attached to the board must have

different SCSI IDs.

■The QLA12160 board contains parts that can be damaged by

electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before handling the QLA12160

board, use standard methods to discharge static electricity. Keep

the QLA12160 board in the antistatic bag until you are ready to

installit.Placetheboardonthebagwhenyouexamineorconfigure

it. Retain the bag for future use.

2.2

What You Need for Installation

Before you install the QLA12160 board in your computer, you need the following:

■A screwdriver (usually a Phillips #1)

■One or more of the following cables:

❑Internal narrow (68-pin to 50-pin)

❑Internal wide (68-pin to 68-pin)

❑External narrow (68-pin very high density cable [VHDC] to 50-pin)

❑External wide (68-pin VHDC)

2.3

Setting the SCSI Termination

Termination for the QLA12160 board is set automatically in most cases. You can

change the termination using the Fast!UTIL software (see section A.2.3).

Termination for the QLA12160 board also can be set using jumpers (see

section B.2).

2.4

SCSI Termination Power

The QLA12160 board suppliestermination power to itself and to theSCSI bus.The

circuit is protected by a self-restoring fuse.

2.5

Installing the Device Activity Light

If the SCSI disk is assigned as drive C (boot drive), you can connect the device

activity light on thefront panelof the PC to indicate boot drive activity. Connect the
