Connecting the AC Power

Connect the AC power cord supplied with the library to the AC connector on the rear of the library. Connect the other end to a 110-volt or 220-volt AC, 50/60 Hz outlet.

The host system must be configured for the library, and the library and all SCSI peripheral devices must be powered up and ready before you power up and boot the host system.
