Hi,

  I'm trying to get a NEC CDR73M connected to my A6HS running 3.9.1.  I'm
adding it to a DLP chain that has 4 internal SCSI disks and an Exabyte
8mm drive.  I've tried all kinds of things with terminators in and out,
tape drive in and out etc. etc.  The best I've been able to do is get the
bus hung 8-(  The disks are units 0-3 (PK54-57), the tape is unit 5 (MT59)
and I set the CDROM to unit 6 (CD60?).  Never sees it; if I RY it it blinks
and then goes off on a tangent with unknown errors, hangs the bus, IOs don't
complete etc. etc.

  Maintlog seems to show (for SCSI 60) an LRD of 0000000000023,
and a DLP Result of 0231 0000 0000 0000. DLP command was
8E600000000000000FE0000.

  This thing is a single ended device (as is the tape drive which works)
since I can hook both up to the scsi port on a Mac Plus and poke around the
varios scsi-ish stuff.

  Any theories/thngs to try? This guy is supposed to be ISO compliant, is
there some other spec Unisys wants on A series???

   Bob
