The following steps outline the actions necessary to connect the cables from the FCO
to the TLS-412xxx with AIT-3 tape drives installed. Please see Figure 5-4 and Figure
5-5. If AIT-5 tape drives are installed see Sections 5.6 and 5.7.
1. Remove power from the TLS: first turn the power switch off and then remove the
power cord.
2. Remove power from the FCO: first turn the power switch off and then remove
the power cord.
3. Connect a SCSI Cable from the SCSI Channel 0 connector on the FCO to connec-
tor A on the left side on the TLS.
4. Connect the SCSI Bridge Cable (very short cable) from connector B to C.
5. Connect a SCSI Cable from the SCSI Channel 1 connector on the FCO to connec-
tor E.
6. Connect a SCSI Cable from the SCSI Channel 2 connector on the FCO to connec-
tor G.
7. Attach an LVD SCSI terminator at connectors D, F and H.
8. Connect a SCSI Cable from the SCSI Channel 3 connector on the FCO to connec-
tor I on the right side on the TLS.
9. Connect a SCSI Cable from the SCSI Channel 4 connector on the FCO to connec-
tor K.
