■ Connection & Switch Setting
SCSI Connection
The Digital Disk Recorder WJ-HD500 controls
the extension units through the SCSI chain.
1 Connect between the EXT STORAGE port on
the WJ-HD500 and the EXT IN port on the 1st
extension unit with the supplied SCSI cable.
2 Connect between the EXT OUT port on the
1st extension unit and the EXT IN port on the
2nd extension unit with the supplied SCSI
cable.
Repeat connections in the same manner for
the following extension units.
3 The 3rd extension unit must be a WJ-
HDE505 if further extension unit is connect
ed, Use a WJ-HDE500 if the 3rd unit is locat
ed at the end of SCSI chain.
Extension is available up to 6 units.
Digital Disk Recorder
\
* Use a WJ-HDE505 for the 3rd unit position if further unit is extended.
Use a WJ-HDE500 if the 3rd position is the end of the SCSI chain.
Error Connection
Connect each error output with CONTROL port on the WJ-HDD500 rear panel as shown. The WJ-HD500 will display a warn
ing of the thermal error on the monitor.
