This chapter describes the installation procedure for the OptiPac and
is divided into two sections. The “Quick-Start Procedure” section
enables experienced users to begin operation right away. The
“Connecting the OptiPac Drive” section helps new users connect the
disk drive before going on to the next chapter for additional operating
instructions.
Quick-Start
Procedure
This section describes the quick-start procedure to set up the OptiPac
for use on a HP 1000 system. Most of the parameters are already set at
the factory. There may be some adjustments necessary before the
OptiPac can operate in your particular environment. Refer to your
operating system manuals for information.
These instructions assume you are replacing an HP 13037 MAC
controller with the Bering 2000MX controller.
1. Turn off your computer.
2. Remove the HP 13037 MAC (Multiple Access Controller) interface board
and module from the HP 1000.
3. Plug the Bering 2000MX MAC Disk Interface into the HP 1000 where the
13037 MAC interface board was removed from.
4. Attach the SCSI cable to the Bering MAC Disk Interface installed in the
computer and the other end to either SCSI connector on the back panel
of the OptiPac drive.
5. Install the SCSI terminator on the remaining SCSI connector on the back
of the OptiPac.
6. Turn on the OptiPac and wait for the self-test to end.
When the test ends without incident, the time and date should be
displayed on the front panel LCD and the clock should be running.
7. Load a cartridge.
8. Format the cartridge from the Removable Utilities menu. This step is
not necessary if the cartridge was previously formatted.
9. Turn on your computer.
10. Begin using the OptiPac.
