%device line change

Hello and thank you in advance for any assistance.
Working with SCO 5.0.5 our SCSI tape device is no longer working.
Before we replace the unit I want to verify it's not related to a change
someone may have made via mkdev tape.

For years the boot message would list the tape device as this:
%device - - - COMPAQ SDT-10000 (0,0,6,0)

I notice now it shows the this:
%device - - - COMPAQ SDT-10000 (1,0,6,0)

Additionally the line that used to show:
%Stp-0 - - - Vendor=COMPAQ Product=SDT-10000

no longer appears. What does the "1" in (1,0,6,0) refer to and how can I change it back to "0" ? ---thank you 1 and all
