Spin Down/Up Time
NOTE: The timer for device spin down is controlled by a small selector, located in a
cutout on the side of the Data Express receiving frame as shown in Figure B-3.
When the key is turned to the off position, and when the timer receives a "No
SCSI Activity" signal from the Hot Swap Board, it waits the specified delay time
before displaying a “u” on the front panel of the receiving frame. The amount of
time required for a drive to spin down is approximately 15 seconds or more. This
number can vary depending on the type of SCSI device and manufacturer (some
drives may require 45 seconds or more). The factory configuration is set for 20
seconds. A different delay time may be selected with the provided adjustment
tool. Refer to the SCSI device manufacturer’s manual for more information on
required device spin down time.
Carrier Installation
Follow the procedures below to install the Data Express Carrier into the receiving frame
equipped with the Hot Swap option.
1. Install the Carrier into the Receiving Frame. A "u" will be present on the front panel.
2. Turn the key lock mechanism, located on the front of the receiving frame, counter
clockwise to the On position. This locks the drive into the receiving frame and activates
the Hot Swap Board. The drive will begin to spin up and the unit number on the display
will begin flashing.
3. After a short length of time the unit display will stop flashing, indicating that the device
is ready to be used.
