Problems with the DCAS and the host adaptor board are probably
caused by bad cabling, termination, or 'bad' devices on the bus.
I had horrible problems with my Ultra bus when my Yamaha CDR 
was sitting on it.  I cured the problem by removing the CDR
from the chain.  If you have any truly ancient devices on your
bus, or are using substandard cabling or termination, or
exceeding the cable length limits, this will lead
to bus problems
