7After setting the cabinet identifications you must power cycle the subsystem. Observe normal power cycling precautions by waiting a minimum of five (5) seconds before adding power again.

This will reset the SCSI IDs to a default setting that prevents a SCSI ID conflict under normal conditions.

8Power up your computer system and run the configuration program.

This completes the hardware installation.

Single - Bus Cabinet

The Single-Bus module links all of the drives in the DEU cabinet to a single SCSI bus. This configuration provides the user with access to the drives independently or as a single large array.

The SCSI IDs of the drives are set by SAF-TE card defaults to IDs 0 through 9, and are assigned sequentially beginning with the lowest or far right drive.

Note: SCSI ID 3 is reserved for the SAF-TE card processor and ID 7 reserved for the RAID controller.

Caution: Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF

(O)position for both the host system and the DEU subsystem before connecting any cables.

1Connect one end of a one meter data cable to the Channel #1 connector on the Host Controller.

2Connect the other end of the data cable to the Channel 1 SCSI connector on the upper or right side I/O Interface card.

Note: The Channel 1 connector located on the upper or right side I/O Interface card is the active connector when the Single-Bus module is installed.

PRINTER NOTE: Page size 9” x 9.25”. Align this page to top, right hand corner. Back box bleeds off top and right edge. Left side of page extends to 9.25 inches.
