FastStor 1 Quick Installation Guide 11
Step 8. Connecting the Ethernet Connector To connect the FastStor 1 to the Ethernet port, use the provided cable from the
accessory kit box.
1. Insert one end of the cable into the FastStor 1 Ethernet port. Push until it
snaps into place. (The open port shown in Figure 11 is for Ethernet
connection.)
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a normal 10/100 BaseT Ethernet
outlet.
Step 9. Restarting Your System ADIC recommends that all external SCSI devices, including the FastStor 1, are
powered on before you restart the computer system. After restarting your system,
including the FastStor 1, the FastStor 1 runs a power-on selftest (as in Step 5
above). When the display reports that the FastStor 1 is in the “Idle“ state and the
green LED is on, the FastStor 1 is ready for further configuration and operation.
Note: The tape drive needs up to 40 seconds from power on until it’s active on the
SCSI bus. It is recommended to turn on the power at least 40 seconds before the
computer system is started.
Step 10. BCR: Labeling cartridges If your loader is equipped with a barcode reader and you want to use this
functionality, you must attach barcode labels to the cartridges.
Note: You must use FastStor 1-specific barcode labels to ensure reliable
functionality of the barcode reader. Cartridge labels must be oriented on the
cartridges as shown in the following figure (locking feature on the left.)
