4.
Attach the cables from the peripheral devices to the SCSI Terminal
Server.
5.
Connect the power supply and/or power cord to an AC outlet.
6.
Power up the network server and its peripherals.
7.
Check to see that the SCSI Terminal Server is operating correctly.
Note: See the Troubleshooting section below for common installa-
tion problems.
Rack Mount Installation
For the SCSI Terminal Server 1032, a rack mount kit is included. The
rack mount brackets may be installed at either the front or rear of the unit.
To install each bracket, do the following:
1.
Remove the two screws on the side of the cabinet.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, do not remove the module
cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified personnel only.
2.
Align the holes of the bracket with the vacated holes in the cabinet.
Use the screws to fasten the bracket to the cabinet.
Rack Mount Considerations
When doing a rack mount installation consider the following:
•
Cumulative power requirements of the unit and other equipment
installed in the rack. Do not overload rack supply circuits.
•
Safety and stability. Always stack the rack from bottom up to ensure
a stable and safe rack.
•
Air flow in the rack. Make sure the unit’s ambient temperature does
not exceed 95°F (35°C).
•
Grounding. Earth ground the unit reliably to the rack system. The
earth ground connection must be maintained when the supply con-
nection is other than a direct connection to the branch circuit.
EIA - 232 Connectors
Many EIA-232 serial devices implement their serial ports with DB-25
connectors. The SCSI Terminal Server units have serial ports imple-
mented with 8-pin RJ-45 modular jacks, with each signal using EIA-232
voltage levels. The figures below shows the pinouts of all these connector
types
Note: The SCSI Terminal Server RJ-45 pin configuration is different
from the configuration of the RJ-45 connectors used on other Digi prod-
ucts. RJ-45 cables designed for other Digi products must not be used
with Digi SCSI Terminal Server.

Troubleshooting
If the SCSI Terminal Server does not operate properly, check the list
below for some common installation problems
.
•
The most frequent problem is duplicate SCSI ID numbers. The SCSI
adapter card is usually set to #7. Make sure the SCSI Terminal
Server module ID number is not conflicting with that number.
•
Check the cable to see that it is properly inserted and is completely
seated. The pins in the SCSI cable are delicate and can be easily bent
if not inserted carefully. It might be necessary to disconnect the cable
to inspect for bent pins.
•
Inspect the power cord to verify it is inserted completely and the
power is turned on.
