The Active LED Out signal is designed to pull down the cathode of an LED. The anode is attached to the proper +5 volt supply through an appropriate current limiting resistor. The LED and the current limiting resistor are external to the drive.

9.5.9Enable port bypass signals

The – Enable Bypass Port A (– EN BYP Port A) and – Enable Bypass Port B (– EN BYP Port B) signals control the port bypass circuits (PBC) located external to the disc drive. The PBC allows a loop to remain functional in the event of a drive failure or removal. When these signals are active, low, the PBC bypasses the drive on the associated port. When an Enable Bypass signal is active, the corresponding Port Bypass LED signal in con- nector J1 is driven low by the disc drive. A pull down resistor, 1K, located with the PBC should be used to insure the bypass is enabled if the disc drive is not installed.

The Enable Bypass signal is active under failing conditions within the drive, on detection of the Loop Port Bypass primitive sequence, or on removal of the drive. In the bypass state the drive continues to receive on the inbound fibre. Enable Bypass may be deactivated by detection of a Loop Port Enable primitive sequence if the drive has completed self-test and a hardware failure is not present.

Failure modes detected by the disc drive that will enable bypass include:

•Transmitter/receiver wrap test failure

•Loss of receive clock

•Loss of transmission clock

•Drive interface hardware error

9.5.10Motor start controls

The drive’s motor is started according to the Start_1 and Start_2 signals described in Table 26. The state of these signals can be wired into the backplane socket or driven by logic on the backplane.
