CONTROLLER COMPONENTS AND OPTIONS

CD-ROM drive: The CD-ROM drive is a high density, read-only, optical laser storage device used for loading the IPS operating system and other files. The CD-ROM drive is located in the processor above the diskette drive.

Cartridge tape drive (not shown): An optional 8 GB, 4 mm SCSI cartridge tape drive also is available for the IPS. Like the diskette and CD drives, this tape drive is not an input source for print jobs or for any other data or application. It provides the service representative with another means of loading system maintenance files or saving diagnostic information.

Caution: When installing a cartridge drive on an IPS with a host channel unit (HCU), the tape drive must be “daisy-chained” to the HCU. In this situation, do not attempt to run both the tape drive and the HCU at the same time.

Back panel: The back panel of the processor has a power switch, a power receptacle and outlet, connectors, connector openings, and ports. The following figure shows the back panel of the Sun workstation that is a part of your IPS controller.
