InfoStation Installation Guide - Rev. C01 Installation 1 INFOSTATION INSTALLATION CAUTION: The InfoStation contains NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS inside the unit. Warranty is VOID if any of the modules inside the InfoStation are opened. Refer ALL servicing to qualified service personnel! Danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced! Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer'sinstructions. WARNING: Before adding or removing DRAM modules, disconnect the battery pack from the battery back-up module. Installing the Drive(s) into the InfoStation While performing the steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive shock to the drive(s) being installed. Also refer to the manufacturer's documentation provided with the drive(s). A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required. Drive Preparation 1. Remove the drive from its protective packaging. 2. SCSI Drive Termination - Disable SCSI termination from the drive. Refer to the documentation provided by the drive manufacturer for the location of these terminators or jumpers. Refer to section "Termination of the SCSI Bus at the VHDCI Connectors" in the InfoStation User's Guide for further information. InfoStation Installation Guide - Rev. C01 StorCase Technology, Inc. 2 Installation Removing a Drive Carrier (without a Drive Installed) Remove the drive carrier by grasping carrier handle and pushing in the carrier release button simultaneously. Pushing in the carrier release button will unlock carrier and allow removal from the InfoStation drive bay (Figure 1 and 3). Figure 1: Drive Carrier Installing a Drive into the Drive Carrier NOTE: Before installing the drive into the carrier, the ID jumpers and spin-up option jumper on the disk drive must be removed. This is required so that the InfoStation itself can set the drive SCSI ID and spin-up option. 1. Install the drive(s) into the drive carrier(s). Drive(s) must be side-mounted into the drive carrier(s) using #6-32 screws (Figure 2). 2. After the drive(s) have been installed in to the drive carrier(s), carefully insert the carrier(s) back into the chassis. StorCase Technology, Inc. InfoStation Installation Guide - Rev.
