Figure 6 shows the location of the bus continuity cards. To install an RRD43-MX disc drive in your system, perform the following steps: 1. Slide the RRD43-MX mounting bracket assembly into the option storage slot and push until the connector on the SCSI paddle card on the bracket engages securely into the backplane. Secure the drive in place by tightening the two captive screws (Figure 2). Do not over-tighten the screws. It is normal for there to be a slight gap between the bracket and chassis. 2. Attach the SCSI ID cable to the OCP connector on the bezel assembly (Figure 2). 3. Insert the tabs on the bottom of the bezel into the slots on the storage slot (Figure 2). 4. Push in the top of the bezel, and tighten the Phillips screw (Figure 2). 5. Install a SCSI ID plug to the front of the bezel, making sure that the SCSI ID number is not used by another device. To add an RRD43-MY disc drive to your system, perform the following steps: 1. Remove the mounting assembly by reversing steps 1 through 5 above. 2. Connect the SCSI ID cable to the back of the drive (Figure 1), making sure that the jumper is installed over the pins marked PARITY. 3. Slide the drive into the mounting assembly. 4. Attach the SCSI and power cables to the drive. Figure 1 shows the location of the connectors. 5. Secure the drive into the mounting assembly with the four mounting screws provided. Two screws attach to the top of the assembly, and two screws attach to the bottom of the assembly (Figure 3 shows the top of the assembly). Make sure that the top front screw goes through the grounding strip shown in the figure. ------------------------------------------------------------ Caution ------------------------------------------------------------ Failure to connect the grounding strip could result in data errors. ------------------------------------------------------------ 5 RRD43 6. Remove the blank panel from the bezel (Figure 4). 7. Remove the blank flat plug(s) from the bezel (Figure 5). 8. Return the OCP connector board to the bezel. 9. Install SCSI ID plugs on the front of the bezel. Each drive must have an unique SCSI ID number. If one of the drives was installed prior to this add-on procedure, make sure that you use the same SCSI ID number that was used previously. The bezel is marked to show the corresponding SCSI ID plug to each slot. 10. Slide the mounting bracket assembly into the option storage slot and push until the SCSI paddle card on the bracket engages securely into the backplane. Secure the drive in place by tightening the two captive screws (Figure 2). Do not over-tighten the screws. It is normal for there to be a slight gap between the bracket and chassis. 11. Attach each SCSI ID cable into the appropriate connector on the OCP connector board on the bezel (Figure 2). Make sure that the cable from the RRD43-MX drive is returned to the connector in which it was originally installed. 12. Insert the tabs on the bottom of the bezel into the slots on the storage slot (Figure 2). 13. Push in the top of the bezel, and tighten the Phillips screw (Figure 2). 6 RRD43 Figure 2 Installing an RRD43-MX Disc Drive ------------------------------------------------------------ Note ------------------------------------------------------------ When a removable-media compartment is empty, blank bezels are required to maintain maximum air flow. ------------------------------------------------------------ 7 RRD43 Figure 3 Inserting Mounting Screws 8 RRD43 Figure 4 Removal of Blank Panel 9 RRD43 Figure 5 Removal of Blank Flat Plugs 10 RRD43 Figure 6 Bus Continuity Card ------------------------------------------------------------ Note ------------------------------------------------------------ When either the J6 or J7 backplane connector is not used, insert a bus continuity card into those slots to maintain bus continuity. There are two bus continuity cards already installed in the backplane. ------------------------------------------------------------ 11 RRD43 Figure 7 Inserting an RRD43 Disc 12
