LCD Configuration Menu
After the hardware installation, the disk drives connected to the RAID
controller must be configured and the volume set units initialized
before they are ready to use. This can be also accomplished by the
Front panel touch-control keypad.
The front panel keypad of LCD is connected to the RAID controller to
access the built-in configuration and administration utility that resides
in the controller’s firmware. To complete control and management of
the array’s physical drives and logical units can be performed from the

that purpose.

configurations can be performed through this interface.
