2. Installation
2.1. Step One: Ensure Attached Device(s) Function(s) Properly
1. Power on the SCSI device(s) (disk or tape drive) that will connect to the device router as
seen in Figure 1-2.
2. Ensure that the SCSI device(s) is (are) functioning properly (refer to the SCSI device’s
operating manual to determine proper operation).
3. Power on the host/server that will connect to the host router.
4. Ensure that the host is functioning properly (refer to the host’s operating manual to
determine proper operation).
5. Power off the host/server.
6. Power off the SCSI device(s).
2.2. Step Two: Setup Device Router
1. Choose one of SCSI-FC Routers to be the device router, as defined in section 1.2 of this
manual and as shown in Figure 1-2. (Either router may be used as the device router.)
2. Ensure that the device router and the SCSI device(s) to be attached are powered off.
3. On the device router set all DIP switches on switch one (SW1) to the down position.
•
To locate switch one (SW1), see Figure 3-2.
4. Set the disk or tape mode on the device router as described below. For further
information on mode settings, see section 3.2.
•
If the device(s) being attached is (are) SCSI drives then on one of the SCSI-FC
Routers, set DIP switch 7 in the down position on switch 2 (SW2) to activate the
disk mode.
•
If the device(s) being attached is (are) SCSI tape drives then on one of the
SCSI-FC Routers, set DIP switches 1 and 7 in the down position on switch 2
(SW2) to activate the tape mode.
5. Attach the device router to the desired SCSI device(s) as shown in Figure 1-1 below.
Ensure that cable and connectors are securely fastened.
•
To locate the SCSI-FC Router SCSI connector, see Figure 3-2.
•
To ensure proper cable specifications, see section 4.1.1.
