Operation

OPERATING THE DISK MODULE

NOTE: Refer to the operating system User Manual for the operation of the specific hard disk drive.

NOTE: Depending on the host operating system, the computer may or may not have to be rebooted after adding a new device. Refer to the operating system User Manual.

Once the hard disk is operational and set to the desired mode, it is ready to be used on the SCSI bus.

POWERING DOWN THE HARD DISK

WARNING: Do not attempt to pull the handle further out while the red wait LED flashes. Movement of the disk module could cause physical damage to the hard disk.

Before the disk can be powered down, the disk module handle must be moved from the Fully In position to the In position.

The Power/Wait LED changes color from green to red and begins to flash indicating wait. There is also a single short tone, which is an audible acknowledgment that power was removed from the hard disk drive.

The flashing red light will remain for about 15 seconds, which is the time- down or spin-down period. The light then will go out

REMOVING THE DISK MODULE

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

When the red Power/Wait LED extinguishes, the green center Active/Remove LED will start to blink, indicating that the disk module can be safely removed from the docking base. Pull the handle Fully Out.

The handle is designed to require a firm pull in order to prevent acciden- tal removal of the disk module. The module will disengage from the docking base and can now be removed.
