The service port is used for local service and diagnostics when you use a terminal session to access the shell interface.

The service port is configured at:

• 19,200 Baud

• 8 data bits

• No parity

• One stop-bit

• Hardware Flow Control or Xon/Xoff or other internally detected error

conditions

LED Indicators

The User panel of the SNC 5100 provides LEDs that indicate the status and activity of the SNC 5100 and its interfaces.

Figure 4 LEDs When the SNC 5100 is first turned on, so me of the LEDs wi ll be on an d others

will flash while it is booting. The following list briefly describes how to interpret the LED signals. See also

“POST Error Codes” on page 197.

FC 1-2

For each FC Channel, the LED will be OFF when the Channel is not connected. It will be ON when the Channel is connected to a live Fibre Channel device. It will flash when there is activity on the Channel.

SNC 5100

SCSI 1-4

For each SCSI channel, the LED will be OFF when no devices have been detected on the port. It will be ON when a target has been found on the channel. It will flash when there is activity on the channel. The LED will return to the OFF state if the channel is reset.

PWR

The PWR (Power) LED will be ON when the SNC 5100 has power. It will flash if the on-board power sensors determine that any of the required supply voltages are out of range.

RDY

The RDY (Ready) LED indicates status of Ready. Normally the RDY LED flashes when the SNC 5100 has finished booting. If the RDY LED remains ON or OFF for more than a few seconds, it means there is a problem.

The RDY LED will flash rapidly, four times per second, when the SNC 5100 is running in diagnostic mode.

ERR

The ERR (Error) LED indicates that an error condition exists. This may indicate such errors as over-temperature conditions, fan stalled or other internally detected error conditions. See “POST Error Codes” on page 197.

Supported Platforms

The SNC 5100 is a platform-independent product. You can connect a host to the SNC 5100 after you have installed the appropriate host bus adapter and drivers. You can also connect host systems with different operating systems to the SNC 5100 through either SCSI or Fibre Channel.

Operating Specifications

This section contains the physical, electrical, and environmental specifications for the product.

The enclosure is designed for strength, durability, and electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) immunity.

The external dimensions are:

• 1.61” high

• 12” deep

• 8.61” wide

• weight: 2.70 kg (~5.93 lb.) with bezel

In order to provide a safety margin and permit adequate cooling, the unit is fitted with a 12 VDC tach-output blower. Should temperatures exceed specifications, an environmental alarm violation is sent and logged in a non-volatile location immune from user erasure, permitting environmental causes of failure to be determined.

Operating Environment

• Operating Temperature: 10° C to 40° C

• Storage Temperature: -40

• Humidity: 10%-90% Operating, Non-Condensing

16 Supported Devices

° C to 65° C

5%-95% Non-operating, Non-Condensing

Install the SNC 5100

This section covers installation of the SNC 5100, SCSI devices, and Host Bus Adapter.

Before you or your service representative installs the SNC 5100, you must perform the steps in the "Pre-installation Procedure".

Pre-installation Procedure

It is important that the steps in this procedure are completed before you begin the installation of the SNC 5100. This ensures a successful installation of the product.

Table 2: Pre-Installation Checklist

Step Actions Comments and References

Verify that the required host platform

operating system version is compatible with the installed Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA).

Verify that the HBA BIOS and device

drivers have been procured and are installed in host system(s).

Optionally, install the Host

Registration Service on the hosts that will be connected to the SNC 5100.

Ensure that all host Fibre Channel

cables ° Have been ordered with the product or ° Have been preinstalled and checked and ° Are labeled with host system identifier.

For the most current list of supported platforms, required host platform code updates, and information on how to obtain them, visit www.adic.com.

For the most current list of supported HBAs, the required BIOS and device driver, visit www.adic.com. See “Host Bus Adapter Setup” on page 29.

Consult your service representative.

For more information on Access Options, see the ADIC Management

Console User Guide.

Refer to the HBA Specification provided with your HBA.

If you are using the ADIC

Management Console to manage the SNC 5100, configure an Ethernet environment. Decide on network parameters: Ethernet port configuration decisions: Static IP address____________ Netmask (if required)_________ User-defined SNC 5100 name (optional)__________________

You may need to assign a default network gateway address and/or route table entries: ________________________ Caution: Save this configuration information for future reference.

If you are using the ADIC

For more information, see the ADIC

Management Console User Guide.

Obtain the network parameters from your network administrator.

Caution: Use of incorrect network parameters can cause problems on the Ethernet network.

The default network name is the unit’s serial number. If you choose a different name, it becomes the prompt displayed on the service terminal. Choosing a different name may be useful i f you hav e more than one SNC 5100. To change the name, use the command on page 138.
