Installation
Before starting the installation, read through these instructions thoroughly. Important information is
included in this guide that is crucial to a successful installation.
Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the LVMU
1.
When you receive the system, examine all packages carefully and note any visible damage. If
you find any damage, do not open the packages. Contact the delivery carrier immediately and
make the proper claims.
2.
Check the items contained in the packages against the packing list.
3.
Inspect all equipment for damage. If equipment is missing or damaged, contact your supplier
immediately.
4.
Remove any shipping tape and packing material used to protect the system during shipment.
Retain the packing materials for re-use when transporting system hardware.
CAUTION!
You will be handling the LVMU when it is most fragile — unpacked and exposed. The LVMU,
if handled properly, will give long, reliable service. To ensure that the unit is not damaged
during installation or maintenance, follow these precautions.
Damage may not always be immediately evident (e.g., no physical damage on the outside of
the unit) and system failure may result weeks or months later.
•
Handle the LVMU with care. Mechanical shock from dropping, shaking, excessive force
when seating the board into the slot, rocking a connector on or other activities can
severely damage the printed circuit board.
•
Wear an anti-static wrist strap (not included). An electrostatic charge from your body
can damage the drive or circuitry permanently.
•
Hold the LVMU by the edges or the strap and never touch the board’s surface. Pressure
on the printed circuit board or contaminants from your hands (e.g., skin oil, food
particles, hand lotion) can cause component failure.
