EEPROM Options for the SCSI Configuration
As shown in Table A-8, a number of EEPROM options allow you to
customize the CTS’s SCSI configuration. You cannot override or
change these options with any command.

Synchronous
negotiations
Controls the operation of
Synchronous Data Transfer
Request (01h) messages.
See page 2-16 for more
information.
NORMAL – The CTS can accept
Synchronous Data Transfer
Request messages, but it will not
initiate synchronous data
transfers.
NONE – The CTS rejects
Synchronous Data Transfer
Request messages with a
Message Reject (07h) message,
and it will not initiate
synchronous data transfers.
INITIATE – The CTS responds
normally to synchronous
negotiations. It initiates
synchronous negotiations with
every initiator when it is first
selected after a reset.
NORMAL
Command
queuing
Controls how the CTS handles
tape motion commands during
power-on self-test, reset, and
load operations or when it is
executing an immediate
command.
QUEUE – The CTS should
queue (hold) one tape motion
command until the current
“immediate” operation is
complete. Then, it should
process the queued command.
The CTS will not accept a tape
motion command while a
non-immediate tape motion
command is in operation. (Note
that this is not SCSI queuing.)
BUSY – The CTS should return
Busy status to tape motion
commands when it is busy.
Commands are not queued.
CHECK COND –TheCTS
should return Check Condition
status to tape motion commands
when it is busy and set the
sense key to 2h (Not Ready).
Commands are not queued.
