5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-1 5. SCSI Interface 5.1. Introduction The Sony SDX-800V uses the SCSI interface to connect to the host system. The Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) is an industry standard interface, approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-2 5.1.3. Supported Commands The following commands are supported. They incl ude all Mandatory and Extended commands, most Optional commands.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-3 5.2. SCSI Bus Operation 5.2.1. Typical SCSI Operation This example describes the typical SCSI bus sequence between the host and the drive. 1. After waiting for the bus clear time the Host arbitrat es for the SCSI bus.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-4 4. The I/O activity from this point is controlled entirel y by the target. The target initiates the COMMAND phase and reads in the Command Descriptor Block (CDB) from the Host.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-5 5.3.1. COMMAND COMPLETE (00h) This message is sent from a target to an initiator to indi cate that the execution of a command or a series of linked commands has completed and valid status has been sent to the initiator.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-6 The TRANSFER WIDTH EXPONENT field defines the trans fer width to be used during DATA IN phases, and DATA OUT phases.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-7 Table 5-4: Synchronous Data Transfer Rates Transfer Period (hex) 9 0A 0C 19 1F 26 2C 32 38 Transfer Rate (MB/s) - narrow 80 40.0 20.0 10.0 8.0 6.67 5.71 5.00 4.44 Transfer Rate (MB/s)- wide 160 80.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-8 The implied synchronous agreement shall remain in effect until a BUS DEVICE RESET message is received, until a hard reset condition occurs, or until one of the two SCSI devices elects to modify the agreement.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-9 Following target response (1) above, the implied agreem ent for wide data transfers shall be considered to be negated by both the initiator and the target if it the initiator asserts ATN and the first message out is either MESSAGE PARITY ERROR or MESSAGE REJECT.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-10 5.3.6. INITIATOR DETECTED ERROR (05h) This message is sent from an initiator to inform a target that an error (e.g.: parity error) has occurred that does not prevent the target from re-trying the operation.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-11 5.3.11. BUS DEVICE RESET (0Ch) This message is sent from an initiator to direct a target to clear all current commands. Upon recognizing this message, the currently executing command will be aborted and the drive will proceed to the BUS FREE state.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-12 5.4. Status Specification A Status byte is sent from the drive to the Host dur ing the STATUS phase at the termination of each command as specified in the SCSI specification, unless the command has been cleared by an ABORT message, by a BUS DEVICE RESET message, or by a hard RESET.
5.SCSI Interface SONY AIT-3Ex drive SDX-800V series Ver.1.1 5-13 10h INTERMEDIATE GOOD: This status is returned fo r every command in a series of linked commands (except the last command), unless an error, exception or abnormal condition causes a CHECK CONDITION status or RESERVATION CONFLICT status to be set.
