There is something that doesn't make a lot of sense here. I don't think there ever was a peecee that used a DB25 connector for SCSI. Only Apple ever did that and they shorted a bunch of grounds together while violating SCSI rules of engagement.
Was that scanner really a peecee parallel-port device? What is an HD50 connector? Do you mean a two row connector for a circuit board as Apple used internally with a flat cable? Or is it a 50 bin blue ribbon job from Amphenol? It's possible to solder from a DB25 to a DB-style 50 pin connector but it's a real pain to do a high density 50 pin job. The Iomega folks used 25 pin SCSI connectors on its Zip drives. Their pinout was the same as Apple's DB25's. Those cables ought to be all over the place. I might even have one. The G4 Sawtooth used ATA 40 pin connections internally. There are PCI cards for SCSI one of which which I assume you have installed. Did Astra supply something like that with a DB25? I'd be surprised if it did for use with a peecee. -- --> Halloween == Oct 31 == Dec 25 == Christmas <-- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
