IRQ Not Defined on Trantor 130B SCSI Host Adapter

Last reviewed: May 9, 1997
Article ID: Q104561
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1

The Trantor 130B SCSI host adapter does not have a hardware interrupt (IRQ) defined as a default setting.

According to the hardware configuration guide for the Trantor 130B host adapter:

   Interrupts are not used by Trantor software, therefore the jumper
   included with the T130 is set for no interrupt setting. If required by
   other software, interrupts 3,5 and 7 are available via jumper settings
   on jumper block JP3 as follows:

      Pin1                IRQ3
      Pin2                IRQ5
      Pin3                IRQ7
      No interrupt        No jumper

MORE INFORMATION

If you install the T130B SCSI host adapter in Windows NT or Windows NT Advanced Server with no interrupt defined, you will receive the following error message in Event Viewer:

   t13B - driver was configured with an incorrect interrupt

The Windows NT SCSI driver for the Trantor T130B defaults to IRQ 5. Configuring the T130B host adapter to irq 5 resolves the problem.
