Operation

LOCKING THE DISK MODULE AND HARD DISK

WARNING: Be sure to return the function switch to the unlocked mode before attempting to remove the disk module.

NOTE: Refer to the TranzPak 6 User Manual for details about system operations.

When the function switch knob is in either the left two disk accessing positions, the disk module handle can be moved freely from being Fully In to power the hard disk, to being Fully Out to remove power from the hard disk drive and to remove the module from the docking base.

When the function switch knob is in either of the right two positions, the disk module handle is locked and cannot be moved. The disk module is locked in the docking base, and the hard disk is locked in either a powered or unpowered state (depend- ing on the position of the module handle).

In either a Read/Write or Read-Only disk accessing state (depending on the position of the function switch).

The main reasons for using a locked position are to prevent unauthorized reading and/or writing to the hard disk, and unauthorized removal of the disk module.

Depending on the module handle position, the hard disk drive can be locked with or without power.

Both the knob and key lock version of the function switch operate in the same way. The only difference is that with the key lock version, a key is needed to change all positions of the function switch. When the key is removed, the function switch position cannot be changed.
