HARDWARE INSTALLATION

(The following information only applies to the 9 & 14-Bay 4U InfoStations)

CAUTION:

Remove ALL power from the InfoStation and verify that all cables have been

disconnected.

WARNING:

The I/O repeater module is NOT hot swappable! Remove ALL power to chassis

before removing and installing the I/O repeater module.

NOTES:

The StorCase SAF-TE Processor Board for the InfoStation enclosure has been

designed and tested for use with StorCase SCSI-to-SCSI and Fibre-to-SCSI

RAID Controller Modules. Due to the many options and configuration types

associated with PCI-based RAID controllers, you may or may NOT experience

incompatibility when using the SAF-TE Board option in PCI-based RAID ap-

plications. Please contact StorCase Technical Support at (888) 435-5460

regarding apparent SAF-TE incompatibilities experienced with your implemen-

tation.

Only one (1) SAF-TE board is required per InfoStation chassis. Install the

SAF-TE board onto I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and

multiple InfoStation chassis configurations).

If the InfoStation chassis has more than one I/O repeater module, install the

SAF-TE board onto I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and

multiple InfoStation chassis configurations).

For SCSI-to-SCSI RAID controller modules, Disk Channel 1 should be connected

to I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and multiple InfoStation

chassis configurations).

For FC-to-SCSI RAID controller modules, Disk Channel 0 should be connected

to I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and multiple InfoStation

chassis configurations).

Refer to both the InfoStation Installation and User's Guide, and the InfoStation

RAID Controller Module User's Guide for further information.

1.

Unplug the InfoStation and verify that ALL cables have been disconnected.

2.

Place the InfoStation on a soft, clean surface to protect the finish of the chassis.

3.

Loosen and remove the two (2) #6-32 Phillips Pan Hd. screws securing the I/O

repeater module to the InfoStation chassis (Figure 2).

4.

Remove the I/O repeater module by grasping handle and pulling out from chassis.
