Connecting expansion units with 12X cables

These instructions explain how to connect expansion units to a system unit with 12X cables in either a new or existing loop.

Tip: If multiple expansion units are to be added with the system power on, work with one 12X loop at a time. For example, if the plan is to add three expansion units to loop X and two to loop Y, follow the complete procedure to simultaneously add the three units to loop X. When the first procedure has been completed, then follow the procedure to simultaneously add the two units to loop Y. It is not necessary to complete the procedure for each expansion unit separately.
