the receiving frame. Refer to Figure 11 for the location of the Device Spin Down/

Up Timer on the receiving frame. 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.

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. Use the alignment tool supplied with the DE300i-SW160 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 recog-

nize the boot disk, the computer system may fail to start-up

properly.

4. After selecting an appropriate unit ID number, replace the DE300i-SW160 carrier in

the receiving frame, and LOCK IT IN PLACE.

5. 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 computer

manufacturer's documentation for formatting information.
