Overview
This chapter explains the steps necessary to install and test
your 4000/7000DLT Series. It also provides an information
symbol for each event that you should verify as correct before
continuing.
Unpacking and Inspecting
Unpack all items from the carton.
None of the components should have any damage.
Save the packing materials in case you need to move or ship
the system in the future. You must ship the unit in the
original or equivalent packing materials or your warranty
may be invalidated.
Installing the Host Adapter
If your host computer does not have native SCSI capability
and the host adapter you are using is not installed, please
install it. Refer to the manual that came with your host adapter
for specific directions.
Connecting the Interface Cable
Attach an interface cable between the host adapter and your
4000/7000DLT Series. The kind of cable you need depends on
the kind of SCSI bus connector on your host adapter. The
4000/7000DLT Series has two SCSI device connectors on the
rear panel. It does not matter which connector you use.
Make sure that the SCSI cable between the host adapter and
the 4000/7000DLT Series is secure and the connections are
fastened correctly.
Note
The bail (or other)
locks at the ends
of the SCSI cable
must be securely
fastened to insure
communications
between the
4000/7000DLT
Series and the
host computer.
