Carrier Installation
Follow the procedures below to install the DE100 carrier into the receiving frame equipped with
the Hot Swap option.
1. Install the carrier into the receiving frame. A "u" will be present on the front panel.
2. Turn the key lock mechanism, located on the front of the receiving frame,
counterclockwise to the ON position. This locks the drive into the receiving frame
and activates the Hot Swap Board. The drive will begin to spin up and the unit
number on the display will begin flashing.
3. After a short length of time the unit display will stop flashing, indicating that the
device is ready to be used.
Carrier Removal
Follow the procedures below to remove the DE100 carrier from the receiving frame equipped
with the Hot Swap option.
1. Verify that the drive is not active. If the system is on a network, make certain other
users are not accessing the target drive, then disable it from the network. Dismount
the drive.
2. Turn the DE100 key lock mechanism (located on the front of the receiving frame),
clockwise to the OFF position. This unlocks the drive from the receiving frame and
activates the Hot Swap Board. The unit ID number on the display will begin flashing.
WARNING:
Be careful not to remove or disturb the carrier unit at this point. Although
the carrier is physically unlocked, the drive requires a minumum of 15
seconds to spin down and is subject to vibration and possible damage
during this period.
3. As the unit ID number flashes, the Hot Swap Board monitors the activity of the SCSI
bus. When activity is no longer present, the Hot Swap Board will remove power from
the drive and then remove the device from the SCSI Bus. The unit number will continue
to flash during this period.
4. After a short length of time the unit display will turn from a flashing unit number to a
steady u, indicating that the device is powered down, unlocked and ready to be
removed from the receiving frame.
