<h2>
CONFIGURATION:</h2>
<blockquote>The configuration file for this backend resides in
<dd>
/usr/local/etc/sane.d/umax.conf.</dd>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>Its contents is a list of device names that correspond to UMAX
scanners. Empty lines and lines starting with a hash mark (#) are ignored.
A sample configuration file is shown below:
<br>&nbsp;
<dd>
#scsi Vendor Model Type Bus Channel ID LUN</dd>
<dd>
scsi UMAX * Scanner * * * * *</dd>
<dd>
/dev/scanner</dd>
<dd>
# this is a comment</dd>
<dd>
/dev/sge</dd>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>The special device name must be a generic SCSI device or a
symlink to such a device. To find out to which device your scanner is assigned
and how you have to set the permissions of that device, have a look at
<a href="http://www.mostang.com/sane/sane-scsi.html">sane-scsi</a>.</blockquote>
<h2>
SCSI ADAPTER TIPS:</h2>
<blockquote>The UMAX-scanners do block the scsi-bus for a few seconds while
scanning. It is not necessary to connect the scanner to its own SCSI-adapter.
But if you need short response time for your SCSI-harddisk (e.g. if your
computer is a file-server), I suggest you use an own SCSI-adapter for your
UMAX-scanner.</blockquote>
<blockquote>The SCSI-adapters that are shipped with some Umax-scanners
are very simple ones. I suggest not to use them. If you really want to
try: the UDS-IS11 uses a DTC3181E chip (compatible to NCR5380). On linux
you may have the chance to get it work with the recent g_NCR5380-driver.
The card does not have IRQ/DMA. Try the following option for kernel boot
option:
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; dtc_3181e=0x280,255
<p>&nbsp;or use the following command:
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; insmod g_NCR5380 ncr_irq=255
ncr_addr=0x280 dtc_3181e=1
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - ncr_irq=255 : no IRQ, no DMA
<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - ncr_irq=254 : autoprobe IRQ
<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - ncr_addr&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
: can be: 0x220 0x240 0x280 0x2A0 0x2C0 0x300 0x320 0x340
<br>&nbsp;
