Installation

Figure 10: Unit ID Select Switch Location

WARNING:

Unlocking the carrier unit switches DC power off to the drive. Since

drives require a short amount of time to spin down, allow at least 15

seconds before pulling the carrier unit out of the receiving frame to

avoid possible damage to the drive.

3. A "u" will be displayed once the drive has completed spin down and is ready to be

removed from the receiving frame. The indicator will return to the SCSI ID number when

the carrier is removed from the receiving frame.

4. Use the alignment tool supplied with the DE75i-S to select the ID number of the disk drive.

Refer to Figure 10 for the location of the ID select switch inside the receiving frame.

WARNING:

Selecting an invalid ID number, or selecting the same unit ID number on

different devices may cause unpredictable results and the computer

system may not recognize the installed device(s). If the computer

system can not recognize the boot disk, the computer system may fail

to start-up properly.

5. After selecting an appropriate unit ID number, replace the DE75i-S carrier in the

receiving frame, and LOCK IT IN PLACE.

6. If the DE75i-S has been installed into an external expansion chassis, verify that power

is on to the chassis and that the last device in the SCSI daisy chain is properly terminated.

7. Reboot the computer system.

2. Unlock the DE75i-S carrier from the receiving frame. The unit number will begin flashing,

indicating that the drive is spinning down. DO NOT REMOVE THE CARRIER FROM THE

RECEIVING FRAME WHILE THE UNIT ID NUMBER IS FLASHING. The length of time that

the unit ID number flashes is controlled by a small timing switch located on the side of

the receiving frame. Refer to Figure 11 for adjusting the spin down/up timer.
