Figure 5: DE75i-A66 Drive Carrier Circuit Board

The JP3 and JP4 connectors have 3 pins each:

Pin 1

should be connected to the Master signal of the disk drive. This signal indicates

that this is the Master C: drive.

Pin 2

should be connected to the Slave/Slave Present signal of the drive. This signal

indicates whether a Slave D: drive is present or not.

Pin 3

may optionally be connected to the "Active" signal of the drive. This signal

controls the level of the drive activity indicator light on the front panel of the

receiving frame. The receiving frame circuit board is designed to route the

drive's - HOST SLV/ACT signal (drive activity) to the activity indicator light on

the front panel of the DE75i-A66 receiving frame. A connection to Pin 3 should

only be made if the drive does not support this - HOST SLV/ACT signal on Pin

39 of the interface connector (check the documentation that accompanied the

drive and controller).

The appropriate pins on the drive must be connected to JP3 and/or JP4 on the carrier

board. These connections are required to set the Master/Slave configurations of the

installed drive. Figure 5 illustrates the Drive Carrier Circuit Board.
