Visually verify that the ID for each disk shelf is unique, and if not, set the disk shelf ID.

NOTE: 

 

A valid shelf ID for a AltaVault system could be one of 00, 01, 10, 11.

 

    00 is the default shelf ID.

a.

  Using one hand, hold the left ear cover between your thumb and index finger. 

     Pull either the top or the bottom of the cover until one end is released. 
     Pull off the left ear cover.

b.

 

 Press and hold the shelf ID button until the first digit 

     on the digital display blinks.

c.

 

 Press the button until the desired number (between 0 and 9) is displayed. 

     This number continues to blink. 

d.

  Repeat steps b and c for the second digit. 

e.

 

 Press and hold the button until the second number stops blinking. 

     Both numbers on the digital display should blink and 
     the shelf fault LED illuminates in about five seconds. 
     The fault LED stays lit until you power-cycle the shelf. 

f.

   Power-cycle the disk shelf to make the new disk shelf

     ID takes effect.

g.

  Replace the left ear cover.
