How to install an external hard disk drive
Example: Installing a 9GB hard disk drive to ID1.
When the power of the unit is turned on , the unit
will automatically detect peripheral recording devices
Glossary
connected to its SCSI terminal must be initialized each time hard disks are added, connections are made or ID numbers are altered, etc. When additional hard disk drives are added to this unit, all data stored on all (internal and external HDD ONLY) will be erased. The reason is that this unit looks at all drives as one. Before adding external drives to this unit, if the information stored on the ex­isting drives is needed, please Backup the informa­tion first before adding external drives. Data is not erased (lost) when an external HDD or other periph­eral is removed from the chain.
With the digital units Power OFF, turn the Terminator switch on the back of the digital unit to OFF. Set the external drive to ID1, terminate at the external drive, connect the SCSI connector from the external drive to the SCSI connector of the digital unit and turn power “ON” on the external drive . Next Turn “ON” the power of the digital unit. When this unit comes-up, it will automatically detect all external connected devices and the DEVICE CHECK screen will be displayed. Notice that the external drive is recognized on ID1.
1. Press the POWER button.
• If the change is recognized, the screen below will appear.
