Organization of the Manual
The Installation manual consists of the chapters identified and described below.
Chapter 1 - Introduction: This chapter describes the contents of the manual and the
PDX208 chassis. It includes physical and electrical specifications and environmental
criteria.
Chapter 2 - Installation: This chapter describes the physical installation of the
PDX208 including initial power-on. It includes configuration information.
Chapter 3 - Service: This chapter consists of maintenance information,
troubleshooting procedures, and removal and replacement procedures. The chapter
includes a list of Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) and pin-outs for the rear panel
SCSI-2 connector.
Product Description
The PDX208 expands the capacity of a Profile to store program material. It adds
72GB media storage to your Profile. The amount of disk expansion for program
material storage depends on how your PRX208 is connected to your Profile, and how
it is configured through the Disk Utility on the Profile.
Each PDX208 contains eight 9GB hard disk drives. This provides two banks of four
drives (36GB each) to support a Profile with two Enhanced Disk Recorder boards
(Master and Slave). The PDX208 may be configured to provide one bank of eight
drives (72GB) to support a Profile with only the Master Enhanced Disk Recorder
board. Application software in the Profile provides control of the PDX208 usage.
Product features and front panel indicators are discussed below.
1-2 PDX208 Instruction Manual
Product Features
Features of the PDX208 are:
• Contains its own power supply and connection to source power.
• Mounts on rack slides for installation in a standard equipment rack.
• Control interface and media transfers from and to the Profile are through SCSI-2
cables connected to the rear panel (see Chapter 2, Installation).
• Front panel indicators.

Installing
This chapter describes the physical installation of your PDX208 and configuring it for
use with your Profile. The information includes:
• Mounting the PDX208 in the equipment rack.
• Making PDX208 rear panel cable connections.
• Turning power On.
• Configuring the PDX208.
Rack Mounting
The PDX208 installs in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Rack slides allow the
PDX208 to slide in and out without having to remove it from the rack. However, if
the rack does not already have rack slides installed, or if the slides are not correctly
positioned, you will have to use those shipped with the PDX208.
When determining the location of the PDX 208 in the rack, bear in mind that the unit
weighs approximately 51.5 pounds. Observe the following warnings:
WARNING: To prevent injury, two people are required to lift the PDX208. It is too
!
heavy for one person to install in the rack.
WARNING: To prevent serious injury, insure that the rack is anchored to the floor
!
so that it cannot tip over when the PDX 208 is extended out of the rack.

Mounting the Slides in the Rack
Figure 2-1 shows the components of a right-hand rack slide set. Note that the chassis
section is already attached to the PDX208. When mounting rack slides in the
equipment rack, bear in mind that the PDX208 occupies 3 RUs.
