7. If required, tighten the screws that fasten the drive mounting bracket to the chassis.
8. Connect the I/O cable(s) to the drive(s). Make sure the Pin 1 indicator on the cable
is aligned properly (refer to the drive manufacturer's documentation for more
information).
9. Connect the 4-pin DC power cable(s) from the DS100 to the drive(s).
10. Connect the ID select cable to the ID select connector on the rear panel of the DS100
(Figures 7 & 8).
NOTE: Use the provided tie wraps included in your installation kit to prevent the power
and ID select cables from possible fan contact.
11. Reinstall the DS100 cover and fasten all screws.
12. Connect the power cable to the DS100 and turn ON the power switch. Should there
be any unusual sound, turn the DS100 OFF immediately, disconnect the power cable,
and remove the cover to locate the source of the problem. Verify that the power and
ID select cables are securely fastened with the provided tie wraps and are not
contacting the fan. Replace the cover.
Connecting the DS100 to the Computer System
If the DS100 is the last device in a SCSI daisy chain, it will require the appropriate termination
(Figures 15 & 16).
The DS100 provides two (2) external rear panel SCSI I/O connectors designed for a single-
host (single-port) connection. The DS100 4-bay is optionally available with four (4) rear panel
SCSI I/O connectors designed for dual host (dual-port) connection.
The four connector (dual port) version permits two (2) separate host/daisy-chain connections.
This configuration permits some drives within the DS100 chassis to connect to one host/daisy-
chain, and the remainder of the devices can be connected to a second host/daisy-chain (Figure
16).
