Preconfiguration Information

Supported Settings

If your card supports Plug and Play, your device resources are configured automatically. Use the following settings for devices that don't support Plug and Play.

o IRQ Level:	9, 10, 11, 12
o I/O Address:	0x140, 0x340
o DMA Channel:	Disabled

Note -

The SCSI subsystem of the Sound Blaster 16 SCSI-2 needs an I/O (port) address and an IRQ that are distinct from those of the audio subsystem. The resistors on the Sound Blaster 16 SCSI-2 cannot be removed. Set the jumpers for the SCSI interface, not for the audio.

Known Problems and Limitations

The aic device driver is used to drive only the SCSI controller on this card. The audio portion of the Sound Blaster 16 SCSI-2 requires a separate Solaris device driver (sbpro) for operation.
The SCSI interface on the Sound Blaster 16 SCSI-2 audio card cannot be used as a primary (boot) disk controller since it has no BIOS. The system must be booted from a disk attached to another controller.
