Adjusting the Spin Down/Up Timer
NOTE:
The timer for device spin down is controlled by a small selector, located in a cutout
on the side of the DE300 receiving frame as shown in Figure 10. 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 alignment tool.
Refer to the SCSI device manufacturers manual for more information on required
device spin down time.
