12 Installation
8. Connect the power cable from the DC power supply in the computer or expansion
chassis to the power connector on the DE100 receiving frame. Refer to Figure
5 for the DE100 receiving frame power connector location.
9. Replace any expansion boards that may have been removed earlier. Replace
the system cover according to the manufacturer’s 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 DE100 yet, the appropriate front panel LED
indicators should illuminate.
NOTE: The lock on the DE100 receiving frame functions as a lock and a DC
power switch for the carrier unit. The lock must be engaged (turned
counterclockwise) 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 com-
puter manufacturer's documentation for formatting information.
Selecting the Unit ID Number
1. Verify that power is turned ON to the DE100 receiving frame by turning on the
computer or external expansion chassis. A number should appear in the unit
ID display window if the carrier is locked in place.
2. Unlock the DE100 drive carrier and remove it from the receiving frame. A "u"
will be displayed initially when the unit is unlocked but will return to a number
when the carrier is removed from the receiving frame.
WARNING: Unlocking the carrier unit switches DC power off to the drive.
Since disk drives require a short amount of time to spin down,
allow about 15 seconds before pulling the carrier unit out of the
receiving frame to avoid possible damage to the drive.
3. Use the alignment tool supplied with the DE100 to select the unit ID number of
the disk drive. Refer to Figure 9 for the location of the Unit ID select switch inside
the receiving frame.
4. After selecting an appropriate unit ID number, replace the DE100 carrier in the
receiving frame, and LOCK IT IN PLACE.
