Installation

6.

To connect the drive to a Remote Activity LED in the computer system or

expansion chassis, connect the appropriate cable(s) to W1 Pins 9 & 10 on the

receiving frame motherboard as shown in Figure 5.

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 5 for the correct

Pin 1 location.

NOTE:

No onboard termination is provided on the DE200. External
termination must be provided.

8.

Connect the power cable from the DC power supply in the computer or expansion

chassis to the power connector on the DE200 receiving frame. Refer to Figure

5 for the DE200 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 DE200 yet, the appropriate front panel LED

indicators should illuminate.

NOTE:

The lock on the DE200 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 DE200 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 DE200 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.
