Safety Summary

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of
operation, service, and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply with these
precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual could result in
personal injury or damage to the equipment.

The safety precautions listed below represent warnings of certain dangers of which
Emerson is aware. You, as the user of the product, should follow these warnings and
all other safety precautions necessary for the safe operation of the equipment in
your operating environment.

ROUND THE INSTRUMENT. To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and

G
enclosure must be connected to an electrical ground. If the equipment is supplied
with a three-conductor AC power cable, the power cable must be plugged into an
approved three-contact electrical outlet, with the grounding wire (green/yellow)
reliably connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. The
power jack and mating plug of the power cable meet International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) safety standards and local electrical regulatory codes.

War nin

O NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE. Do not operate the equipment in any

D
explosive atmosphere such as in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment could result in an
explosion and cause injury or damage.

EEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS INSIDE THE EQUIPMENT. Operating personnel must not

K
remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other
qualified service personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly
or component replacement or any internal adjustment. Service personnel should
not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions,
dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries,
such personnel should always disconnect power and discharge circuits before
touching components.

SE CAUTION WHEN EXPOSING OR HANDLING A CRT. Breakage of a Cathode-Ray Tube

U
(CRT) causes a high-velocity scattering of glass fragments (implosion). To prevent
CRT implosion, do not handle the CRT, and avoid rough handling or jarring of the
equipment. Handling of a CRT should be done only by qualified service personnel
using approved safety mask and gloves.

O NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY EQUIPMENT. Do not install substitute parts or

D
perform any unauthorized modification of the equipment. Contact your local
Emerson representative for service and repair to ensure that all safety features are
maintained.

BSERVE WARNINGS IN MANUAL. Warnings, such as the example below, precede

O
potentially dangerous procedures throughout this manual. Instructions contained in
the warnings must be followed. You should also employ all other safety precautions
which you deem necessary for the operation of the equipment in your operating
environment.

Hardware Preparation and Installation

Unpacking Instructions

If the shipping carton is damaged upon receipt, request that the carrier’s agent be
present during the unpacking and inspection of the equipment.

Unpack the equipment from the shipping carton. Refer to the packing list and verify
that all items are present. Save the packing material for storing and reshipping of
equipment.

d touching areas of integrated circuitry. Static discharge can damage circuits.

Avoi

After removing the product from the packaging:

 Check for obvious physical damage.
 Make sure that you disconnect the chassis from the main power supply

before you continue.

Antistatic Precautions

Emerson strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a
conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic
components, such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules, can be
extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). After removing the component
from its protective wrapper or from the system, place the component flat on a
grounded, static-free surface (and, in the case of a board, component side up). Do
not slide the component over any surface.

If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by
wearing an antistatic wrist strap (available at electronics stores) that is attached to
an active electrical ground. Note that a system chassis may not be grounded if it is
unplugged.

1 AMC-S402

Overview

The AMC-S402 is an Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) module which incorporates an
enterprise class dual port SAS disk drive onto the module. The module boasts several unique
features intended to help embedded systems designers address both thermal and signal
integrity design challenges associated with in-chassis ATCA and MicroTCA applications.

The AMC-S402 includes new signal integrity ‘tuning’ circuits to adjust and optimize the high
speed SAS serial links to best match the electrical routing environment of your specific ATCA
or microTCA backplanes. These signal wave-shape parameters are stored in non-volatile
memory installed on the module.

The AMC-S402 was developed as single-width AMC, with ship options for mid or full height
panels. All hard drives are 2.5” small form factor, and spin at a minimum 10,000 rotations
per minute (RPM). The AMC-S402 also includes a module management controller (MMC).

1.1 Features of the AMC Module

The AMC-S402 is an AMC module with the following major features:

 Accommodates a single 2.5" SAS hard drive
 Dual path SAS support, AMC Port 2 primary, AMC Port 3 secondary
 Drive over-current protection
 General Advanced Mezzanine Card Features
 Ejector switches for hot swap
 Wave shape capability, for SAS transmit signals
 One blue hot swap LED
 OOS (Out-of-Service) LED
 ACT LED indicates in-service state and I/O activity

Refer to Chapter 5 “Specifications” for additional details regarding env
mechanical, power specifications, as well as reliability and compliance statements.

1.2 PICMG Standards Compliance

The AMC-S402 is fully compliant with the following PCI Industrial Computer
Manufacturers Group (PICMG) specifications:

 PICMG AMC.0 Rev2.0 (See section 5.1.1 for height exceptions)
 AMC.3 Re
