How to force X6758 card in LVD operation

Dear Sun Managers,

 

I have an X6758 Ultra3 SCSI card (dual channel) inserted in an E450 running
Solaris 9. The card is connected via 10m long cables (from Sun) to a Plasmon
G238 Magneto-optical Library

Both the card and the library are able to operate in either single-mode or
low voltage differential, but because of the cable length, I have to go for
LVD. The problem is that the library does not have any settings to force LVD
operation, and I did not see a jumper on the card for that also (There are
jumpers for manual/auto termination, but this is something else.

My question is:

How can I make sure the card is operationg in LVD mode ?

Could be this info concealed in prtconf -v output ?

How can I force LVD operation on the card ?

 

Met vriendelijke groeten / Kind regards,

Orange Nederland N.V.
