Yes it must be terminated. You should be able to get an inline terminator. It is inserted between the end of the external SCSI cable attached to your computer and your scanner.

It is a pent.166mmx running win 95. Everything is finally working here but when i tried to hook up my Artec Viewstation scanner it will not recognise it. The scanner is set to device 6 and the cd-r is set for 2. I was told this card is self terminating. Do i still need to terminate the scanner? I have tried to find a terminator with no success.Can i make one? Can i use just another scsi cable hooked to the scanner as a terminator?
