6.4.2. Default SCSI ID's

It is important for SCAM devices to have a default ID setting in case they are used on a SCSI bus that does not use a SCAM master host adapter. Therefore, default IDs listed in table 1 are recommended settings for all PnP SCSI devices as shipped from the factory. Provision may be given to the user to change the default ID to control configuration.
