It's on the front panel.

You press: You see:
  OPTION TEST *
  NEXT CONF *
  NEXT INFO *
  NEXT ID *
  ENTER ID (blinking #)

Hmm, I would think you could press PREV and NEXT to cycle through at
this point, and ENTER to set the ID, but the drive I'm fiddling with
(actually a Tandem 5160) doesn't want to let me use PREV or NEXT here
-- I bet I have to play with a CONF option to unlock the SCSI ID.
And I don't have the manual handy right now.
