DE75i-A User's Guide - Rev. C01
Selecting the Unit ID Number
1.
Verify that power is turned on to the DE75i-A receiving frame by turning on the
computer. A number should appear in the unit display window if the carrier is
locked in place.
2.
Unlock the DE75i-A drive carrier and remove it from the receiving frame. A "u"
will be displayed initially when the unit is unlocked but will return to a number
when the carrier is removed from the receiving frame.
WARNING:
Unlocking the carrier unit switches DC power off to the drive. Since disk
drives require a short amount of time to spin down, allow about 15
seconds before pulling the carrier unit out of the receiving frame to avoid
possible damage to the drive.
3.
Use the alignment tool supplied with the DE75i-A to select the ID number of the
drive. Refer to Figure 10 for the location of the Unit ID Select Switch inside the
receiving frame. Table 3 lists the valid unit ID numbers that can be used for the
drive.
NOTE:
If using drive or receiving frame jumpers to determine Master/Slave status, set
the unit number to "0" on the receiving frame.
4.
After selecting an appropriate unit ID number, replace the DE75i-A carrier in the
receiving frame, and
LOCK IT IN PLACE
.
NOTE:
The lock on the DE75i-A receiving frame functions as a lock and a DC power
switch for the carrier unit. The lock must be engaged in order to supply power
to the carrier and installed drive.
5.
Reboot the computer. The new device is now ready for use, although it may
have to be formatted or initialized prior to use with your operating system and
applications software.
