37The
38.Xr ch
39driver provides support for a
40.Em SCSI
41media changer. It allows many slots of media to be multiplexed between
41media changer.
42It allows many slots of media to be multiplexed between
42a number of drives. The changer device may optionally be equipped
43with a bar code reader, which reads label informationen attached to
44the media.

46A SCSI adapter must also be separately configured into the system
47before a SCSI changer can be configured.

47A SCSI adapter must also be separately configured into the system
48before a SCSI changer can be configured.
49.Pp
50As the SCSI adapter is probed during boot, the
51.Em SCSI
51bus is scanned for devices. Any devices found which answer as 'Changer'
52bus is scanned for devices.
53Any devices found which answer as 'Changer'
52type devices will be 'attached' to the
