 SCSI Window

 This window must be used to set and to enable the SCSI scanner  configuration .

 Device Name  : The device name of the used SCSI host adapter.

                 Common device names:

                  SCSI host adapter    | SCSI device name
                 ----------------------------------------------------
                  A3000 internal SCSI  | scsi.device
                  A2008 Oktagon SCSI   | oktagon.device
                  A1200 SCSI Blizzard  | 1230scsi.device
                  GVP with Gururom     | omniscsi.device
                  GVP                  | gvpscsi.device
                  Squirrel             | squirrelscsi.device
 

 Device ID    : The device ID or SCSI ID of the flatbed scanner.
                The SCSI <Device ID> must be same as the SCSI ID which is set
                with the push-indexing or rotary switch on the rear panel or
                the underside of the scanner. Any ID from 0 through 6 is
                valid as long as it is not used by any other device on the
                SCSI bus.

 Scan Buffer  : The size in kByte of the <Scan Buffer> used for image scanning.
                The memory is only allocated during the scanning access.
                This memory space must be available in one piece.
                As a rule of thumb: The larger the better. But as always in life
                there is a physical/logical boundary. Not every SCSI device
                driver is capable of huge buffer sizes. Some drivers have a
                limit of 8 MBytes. If the buffer size is beyond this boundary
                this could lead to a scrambled image or a system lockup.
                

 File Buffer  : The size in kByte of the <File Buffer> used for file
                operations image scanning. The memory is only allocated
                during the scanning access.
                This memory space must be available in one piece.
                As a rule of thumb: A value of 100 to 300 kByte is enough.
                A larger buffer does not lead to a better performance.


 Scan Memory  : Defines the type of used memory. This enables you to speed up
                SCSI performance in same cases.
                On certain SCSI host adapters it is necessary to choose the
                proper memory type for a reliable connection. Test the different
                opportunities and choose the best.

 File Memory  : Defines the type of used memory. This enables you to speed up
                SCSI performance in same cases.
                On certain SCSI host adapters it is necessary to choose the
                proper memory type for a reliable connection. Test the different
                opportunities and choose the best.

 Test Device  : Must be used to test the SCSI settings. You have to activate
                this test to enable the new settings.

 Test Results : The results of the <Test Device> will be displayed in this
                list view.

 Cancel       : Throw away changes.

 OK           : Accept changes.
