Installing the Receiving Frame

The drive should be installed into the carrier before installing the receiving frame into the mounting bay of a computer or expansion chassis.

NOTE: Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver for this procedure.

1.Turn OFF power to the computer.

2.Open the computer system according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If neces- sary, temporarily remove any expansion boards that may make installation difficult.

3.Select the Master/Slave configuration on the rear of the receiving frame by placing a jumper on the appropriate (J5) pins (Figure 8). Remove the jumper if you wish to use the Unit ID Select switch on the receiving frame to configure the Master/Slave drive selection. Refer to Table 1 for further information.

NOTE: The unit ID select switch configures the unit ID display only. The master/slave setting on must still be set on the drive itself (refer to the drive manufacturer's documentation for further information).

4.With the drive carrier locked in place inside the receiving frame, install the DE100i-A100 into the 5.25” drive opening in the computer or expansion chassis. Use the appropriate guides to position the Data Express, and fasten it into place with the four (4) #6-32 Phillips screws provided. Figure 9 illustrates the location of the mounting holes. Mounting holes are provided on each side and the bottom of the receiving frame to accommodate a variety of mounting configurations. Use the mounting holes which best suit the computer or expansion chassis configuration. Note that bottom mounting holes require self-tapping screws (not provided).

5.Adjust the front of the receiving frame so the carrier slides freely in and out on the receiving frame guides. The position of adjoining peripheral units may require ad- justment.
