Troubleshooting SCSI connection problems
The SCSI ID number used for the DMC must be unique, and
must not be used by any other of the computer's internal or
external SCSI devices on any SCSI bus. If another SCSI
device is using the same ID as the DMC camera, the
following message appears on the PowerMac/PowerPC
display: "Unable to communicate with camera..."
To identify the SCSI IDs being used by the devices connected
to your PowerMac or PowerPC, use a program such as SCSI
Explorer or Apple System Profiler (distributed on the Apple
software CD).
When the SCSI ID of the DMC is changed and the computer
running Windows 95 is rebooted, Windows 95 adds another
DMC entry to the registry corresponding to the new SCSI ID.
If you change the DMC SCSI ID back to its original setting,
you must delete the new registry entry before the DMC
software will recognize the camera.
Refer to the Windows 95 documentation for registry-editing
instructions.
Verify that you have the latest software drivers for your SCSI
adapter. Instructions for obtaining updated drivers are
usually packaged with the adapter. You may also be able to
obtain drivers from the adapter manufacturers customer
support department or site on the World Wide Web.
