Procedure while the QuVIS Acuity is powered OFF
To remove a drive sled from the media bay while the system is powered OFF, you must use the solenoid override
key to manually disengage the solenoid locks.
1.
Place the solenoid override key (3/32 hex key) in the hole (center of media bay tray) just below the
solenoid disengage buttons.
2.
Turn the key clockwise until it will no longer turn (about a quarter turn) and hold.
3.
To remove the drive sled (while the solenoid lock is disengaged), place your fingers in the top and bottom
finger holes and pinch the tabs towards the center of the sled. While the tabs are held towards the center
of the sled, firmly pull the sled toward you in a straight motion.
4.
Slowly release the override key and remove.
Peripheral Bay Storage
The QuVIS Acuity accepts up to two 5 ¼” SCSI devices in the optional internal Peripheral Bay. The Peripheral Bay
may be configured with a half-height (5 ¼”) removable drive assembly for transporting content between QuVIS
video servers. Alternately, the Peripheral Bay may be populated with an 8mm Sony AIT tape drive for transport and
archiving applications. The Peripheral Bay takes on the SCSI ID of the device that is installed in that slot.
Removable hard drive media allows the server to store all supported video formats to the same media without
requiring separate virtual or physical partitions of the drives for different clip/video formats. With scalable storage
options, several hours of superior quality high definition video can be shared between servers in just a matter of
minutes. With “hot-swap” removable drive support the dismounting and mounting of removable drive volumes can
be done live with the system powered on.
Archiving Data
Using native software tools, data and media files can be archived to or loaded from high-capacity 8mm tape backup
devices such as the Sony AIT-2/3 tape drive. A single AIT-3 tape cartridge can store up to 100GB of data or in
QuVIS terms, in excess of 2 hours of QPE encoded HD (1920x1080) playable media. Once data has been backed
up to this archive magnetic tape media, the content can be safely stored for long-term archiving or immediate off-
line retrieval.
USB 2.0 Drive Support
The QuVIS Acuity, configured with CPU version 7, provides two USB 2.0 ports used to connect external USB
storage devices. USB device support is currently limited to data storage devices such as USB thumb drives and
external USB hard drives.
Note: The QuVIS Acuity does not currently support local DCP Ingest from an external USB 2.0 device.
USB devices are hot swappable, meaning that they may connect to the Acuity at any time even while the machine
is being used.
USB drive support is currently restricted to READ-only access. The Acuity does not currently support the ability to
write or modify files on the external USB peripheral; this may be available at a later time as a software upgrade.
USB storage devices are normally formatted using a standard file system. The QuVIS Acuity supports the following
2.0 file system formats:
•
FAT32 (read-only)
o
USB thumb drives formatted as FAT32 are supported.
o
USB hard drives formatted as FAT32 are not currently supported. If you wish to use a
FAT32 USB hard drive with a QuVIS server, you must reformat the drive to NTFS,
EXT2, or EXT3.
