Connect the remote front panel cable(s) provided in the upgrade kit to the controller module(s) on the storage device(s). 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure To install an RF-series ISE into a BA400-series enclosure, perform the following procedures. 3.3.1 ISE Installation ------------------------------------------------------------ Caution ------------------------------------------------------------ Static electricity can damage integrated circuits. Use the antistatic wrist strap and antistatic pad found in the static-protective field service kit (P/N 29-26246-00) when you work with the internal parts of a computer system. Handle the RF-series ISE with care. Dropping or bumping the ISE can damage the disk surface. Carry or hold the ISE by the underside of the lower bracket to avoid damaging the drive module. ------------------------------------------------------------ 1. After the system manager shuts down the operating system, open the enclosure door, set the Power switch to off (0) (Figure 3-5). Installing RF-Series Options 3-7 Installing RF-Series Options 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure Figure 3-5 Power Switch Location 2. Always install ISEs working from right to left (Figure 3-6). ------------------------------------------------------------ Note ------------------------------------------------------------ The first or right-most mass storage cavity in the mass storage area is wider than the rest to accommodate a larger device such as a tape drive. A small filler panel (70-27414-001) is used to fill the gap when an RF-series ISE is installed in this first cavity. ------------------------------------------------------------ 3-8 Installing RF-Series Options Installing RF-Series Options 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure Figure 3-6 BA440 Enclosure 3. Loosen the captive Phillips screw at the top of the blank ISE front panel assembly, and remove the panel. The location of the Phillips screw is shown on a sample device in Figure 3-7D. 4. For the 5.25-inch form factor ISE, with the ISE controller module facing to the right, slide the ISE along the guide rails into the mass storage cavity (Figure 3-7A). For the 3.5-inch ISE, with the controller module facing to the left, slide the ISE along the guide rails into the mass storage cavity (Figure 3-7A). Installing RF-Series Options 3-9 Installing RF-Series Options 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure 5. Using the upper and lower finger cutouts on the ISE brackets, firmly push the ISE brackets until the interface card at the rear of the storage device plugs into its backplane connector. The guide tabs on the upper and lower bracket should line up with the cutouts in the chassis. Tighten the two captive screws (Figure 3-7A). ------------------------------------------------------------ Caution ------------------------------------------------------------ It is normal for there to be a small gap between the ISE mounting bracket tabs and the enclosure frame. Tighten the captive screws only until they are securely fastened (9 in/lbs torque). Do not try to force the tabs to fit flush against the frame. ------------------------------------------------------------ 6. Plug the remote front panel cable(s) into the connector(s) inside the ISE front panel. For 5.25-inch ISEs see Figure 3-7B. For 3.5-inch ISEs see Figure 3-7C. For the 5.25-inch ISEs only, use the Velcro fastener on the cable and on the inside of the ISE front panel to secure the remote front panel cable. The 3.5-inch ISEs have a different connector scheme that does not require the Velcro fastener. ------------------------------------------------------------ Note ------------------------------------------------------------ If the 3.5-inch ISE contains two storage devices, two remote front panel cables must be connected to the front panel. If the ISE contains only one storage device, only one remote front panel cable must be connected to the front panel. ------------------------------------------------------------ 7. Attach the ISE front panel to the enclosure by inserting the panel's lower tabs into position. Secure the panel with its single captive Phillips screw (Figure 3-7D). 3-10 Installing RF-Series Options Installing RF-Series Options 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure Figure 3-7 Installing the ISE Upgrade in the Storage Cavity Installing RF-Series Options 3-11 Installing RF-Series Options 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure 3.3.2 Bus Node ID Plug Installation Bus node ID plugs have prongs at the rear that identify the bus node number (and by default, the unit number) of the ISEs to the system. Bus node ID plugs are shipped with the system. To insert a bus node ID plug (P/N 12-28766-19), align the two center prongs with the two center slots of the receptacle on the ISE front panel (Figure 3-8). Push the plug firmly into the receptacle. To remove a bus node ID plug, grasp it firmly and pull it straight out. Follow the rules below for numbering IDs for RF-series ISEs: · For each DSSI bus controller, do not duplicate bus node numbers for storage elements. You can have only one storage element on bus 0 identified as node 0, one storage element as node 1, and so on. · By convention, the ISEs are numbered in increasing order from right to left and top to bottom, starting with 0. ------------------------------------------------------------ Note ------------------------------------------------------------ The DSSI node ID address assigned by the plug is read only during the power-up sequence. If you change the bus node ID plug while the system is operating, you must turn off the system and then turn it back on for the new plug addresses to take effect. ------------------------------------------------------------ 3-12 Installing RF-Series Options Installing RF-Series Options 3.3 Installing an RF-Series ISE in the BA400-Series Enclosure Figure 3-8 Installing the Bus Node ID Plug Installing RF-Series Options 3-13 Reader 's Comments BA200 to BA400 Series Enclosures Storage Device Conversion Procedure EK-DSSII-IN.
