Caution
If the operating environment differs from the storage environment by 15° C
(30° F) or more, let the unit acclimate to the surrounding environment for at
least 12 hours.
Unpack all items from the carton. Save the packing materials in case you need to move or ship the system in the
future.
Caution
You must ship the DS9000 Series in the original or equivalent packing
materials or your warranty may be invalidated.
Checking the Accessories
Check to make certain that the following items are included with your DS9000 Series:
• Power cord
• One DLTTape IV data cartridge
• One cleaning cartridge, or a coupon for a free DLT cleaning cartridge
• One SCSI cable
• One SCSI bus terminator
• This manual
• A Warranty Registration card
None of the items should show signs of damage.
Installing the Host Adapter
At this point if your host computer system 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.
When the host adapter card is installed return to this point in the manual.
Connecting the Interface Cable
Attach an interface cable between the host adapter and the DS9000 Series. The kind of cable needed depends on the
kind of SCSI bus connector on the host adapter. The DS9000 Series has two SCSI device connectors on the rear
panel. It does not matter which connector is used.
