Before You Begin
Before going through with this manual, you should read and focus on the following safety guidelines. Notes about the subsystem’s controller configuration and the product packaging and delivery are also included here.
Safety Guidelines
To provide reasonable protection against any harm on the part of the user and to obtain maximum performance, user is advised to be aware of the following safety guidelines particularly in handling hardware components:
Upon receiving of the product:
Place the product in its proper location.
Do not try to lift it by yourself alone. Two or more persons are needed to remove or lift the product to its packaging. To avoid unnecessary dropping out, make sure that somebody is around for immediate assistance.
It should be handled with care to avoid dropping that may cause damage to the product. Always use the correct lifting procedures.
Upon installing of the product:
Ambient temperature is very important for the installation site. It must not exceed 30
◦
C. Due to seasonal climate changes; regulate the installation site temperature making it not to exceed the allowed ambient temperature.
Before plugging-in any power cords, cables and connectors, make sure that the power switches are turned off. Disconnect first any power connection if the power supply module is being removed from the enclosure.
Outlets must be accessible to the equipment.
All external connections should be made using shielded cables and as much as possible should not be performed by bare hand. Using anti-static hand gloves is recommended.
In installing each component, secure all the mounting screws and locks. Make sure that all screws are fully tightened. Follow correctly all the listed procedures in this manual for reliable performance.
Controller Configurations

Chapter 3 Getting Started with the Subsystem
3.1 Installing the Rails and Mounting into Rack
NOTE: At least two persons are needed to lift the Disk Array. To reduce the weight of the Disk Array, remove the power supply modules from the rear of Disk Array. If disk drives are already installed in the disk trays, remove also the disk trays. Refer to appropriate sections on how to remove the power supply modules and how to remove the disk trays/disk drives.
NOTE: The sample model used in the following installation might not be the actual model for this manual.
NOTE: The Disk Array must be installed near the Disk Array or host system where it will be connected. A Phillips screwdriver is needed in installation.
WARNING! It is prohibited to put other enclosures on top of the
64-bay Disk Array because the total weight will not be supported by the rails.
Steps:
1.
Open the rail box.
2.
Remove the 2 rail assemblies and the screws/accessories from the box. Check its contents.

NOTE: The subsystem is equipped with redundant, full range power supplies with PFC (power factor correction). The system will automatically select voltage.
NOTE: The PSFM has a 5V standby DC voltage. When the power cord(s) is/are connected to the AC Power Input Socket, after 1 second, all Activity LEDs will flash once. When the power cord(s) is/are disconnected from AC Power Input Socket, after 3 seconds, all Activity LEDs will flash twice.
2.
Turn on each Power On/Off Switch of the PSFM. The main switch button in the front panel will still flashing blue.
NOTE: When the power cord connected from main power source is inserted to the AC Power Input Socket, the Power Status LED becomes RED . When the switch of the PSFM is turned on, the LED still shows RED . After the main switch in front panel is turned on, the LED turns GREEN , which means it is functioning normally.
