Installing the Receiving Frame
The drives should be installed into the carrier before installing the receiving frame into the
mounting bay of a computer or expansion chassis.
NOTE: Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver during this procedure.
1. Turn OFF power to the computer.
2. Open the computer system according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If neces-
sary, temporarily remove any expansion boards that may make installation diffi-
cult.
3. With the drive carriers locked into place inside the receiving frame, install the DE400
receiving frame into the drive opening in the computer or expansion chassis. Use
the appropriate guides to position the DE400, and fasten it into place with the eight
(8) #6-32 Phillips Pan Hd. screws provided. Figure 6 illustrates the location of the
mounting holes. Mounting holes are provided on each side of the receiving frame
to accommodate a variety of mounting configurations. Use the mounting holes
which best suit the computer or expansion chassis configuration.
4. Adjust the front of the receiving frame so the carrier slides freely in and out on the
receiving frame guides. The position of adjoining peripheral units may require
adjustment.
5. If your PCI-based RAID controller supports the DE400 Activity Indicator and Fault
features, cable connections (cables not included) to the Activity LED and Fault LED
pins located on the Option Pin Connector (Figure 4) are required. Refer to the PCI-
based RAID controller manufacturer's documentation for further information.
6. Connect the I/O cables from the host adapter to the receiving frame. The Pin 1
indicator on the cable must be properly aligned.
7. Connect the power cables from the DC power supply in the computer or expansion
chassis to the power connectors on the DE400 receiving frame. Refer to Figure
5 for the DE400 receiving frame power connectors location.
NOTE: Both DC power connectors must be provided with power for proper
operation.
8. Replace any expansion boards that may have been removed earlier. Replace the
system cover according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
9. Reconnect any system or peripheral cables removed earlier.
