Installation

Figure 9: Receiving Frame Mounting Holes

5. Adjust the front of the receiving frame so the carrier slides freely in and out on

the receiving frame guides. The position of adjoining peripheral units may require

adjustment.

6. To connect the drive to a Remote Activity LED in the computer system, connect

the appropriate cable(s) to the receiving frame rear panel as shown in Figure 4.

Connect JP1 Pins 17 & 18 to a remote activity LED.

7. Connect the I/O cable from the host adapter to the receiving frame. The Pin 1

indicator on the cable must be properly aligned. Refer to Figure 4 for the correct

Pin 1 location.

8. Connect the power cable from the DC power supply in the computer chassis to

the power connector on the DE75i-A receiving frame. Refer to Figure 4 for the

receiving frame power connector location.

9. Replace any expansion boards that may have been removed earlier. Replace the

system cover according to the manufacturers instructions.

10. Reconnect any system or peripheral cables removed earlier.

11. Turn ON power to the computer. If the installation has been successful, and all

cables have been properly attached, the system should boot normally. Although

the computer may not recognize the DE75i-A yet, the front panel display on the

Data Express should illuminate.

NOTE:

The lock on the DE75i-A receiving frame functions as a lock and a DC power

switch for the carrier unit. The lock must be engaged (turned counterclock-

wise) in order to supply power to the carrier and installed drive unit.

12. The new drive may need to be formatted or initialized prior to use with the operating

system and applications software. Refer to the drive and/or computer manu-

facturer's documentation for formatting information.
