Appendix B - Factory-Installed Options
DX1/200-SWC160/RH Ultra160 Isolator Board
The DE100i-SWC160 Isolator Board (Figure B-1) is an upgrade attachment for the
DE100i-SWC160 receiving frame. This attachment provides a bus-isolating feature as
described below.
Bus-Isolating Hot Swap Function
The DX1/200-SWC160/RH provides an enhanced, bus-isolating hot swap function by allowing
the installation, removal or exchange of DE100i-SWC160 carriers while the computer system
is operating by monitoring and protecting the computer system and other peripheral devices
on the SCSI bus. The Isolator Board eliminates the need to shut down the system when adding
or removing a SCSI device by performing two functions:
1.Delays power up/down of the drive until the time period between SCSI bus cycles.
This prevents the interruption of any SCSI bus activity by other devices on the bus.
2.Prevents drive power sequencing from generating noise on the SCSI bus, thus
preventing data transfer corruption on other devices.
Please note that, whereas UNIX and Apple-based systems provide mount/dismount drive
commands, most PC systems do not provide such a feature. When using one of these operating
systems, it may be necessary to reboot the computer after adding or changing a drive. This
reboot activity will force the SCSI host adapter to rescan its SCSI bus for physically attached
drives, and will then be able to access the new or changed drive.
Attaching the Isolator Board
The DE100i-SWC160 may be purchased with the Isolator Board factory-installed. If the board
has not already been attached to the DE100i-SWC160 receiving frame, follow the instructions
below to add the board. Otherwise, proceed to the section "Using the Isolator Board" for usage
instructions.
1. Remove jumpers on J3 Pins 7 & 8, and Pins 9 & 10 from the receiving frame motherboard
(Figure B-2).
NOTE:Save these jumpers! These jumpers are required when the Isolator Board
2. Remove the two (2) screws on the receiving frame motherboard.
NOTE:Save these screws for Step 5!
3. Attach two (2) stand-offs (included) to the mounting holes on the receiving frame
motherboard (Figure B-3).
4. Carefully align the connectors of the Isolator Board with the connectors on the
receiving frame motherboard and gently push the board into position. Make certain that
all connectors are properly mated.
5. Secure the board to the receiving frame stand-offs with the same two (2) screws from

to a steady u, indicating that the device is powered down, unlocked and ready to be
removed from the receiving frame.
the carrier is physically unlocked, the drive requires a minimum of 15
seconds to spin down and is subject to vibration and possible damage
during this period.
Carrier Installation
Follow the procedures below to install the DE100i-SWC160 carrier into the receiving frame
equipped with the Isolator Board.
1. Install the carrier into the receiving frame. A "u" will be present on the front panel.
2. Turn the key lock mechanism, located on the front of the receiving frame, counterclockwise to the ON position. This locks the drive into the receiving frame and activates the
Isolator Board. The drive will begin to spin up and the unit ID number on the display will

DE100i-SWC160 User's Guide - Rev. D01StorCase Technology, Inc.
must be provided.
22Appendix B - Factory-Installed Options
Solenoid Drive Lock
The factory-installed solenoid option prevents premature removal of the carrier and drive unit
until the target drive has fully spun down. For most disk drives, this period of time can range
from 15-40 seconds, depending on the type of drive being used (e.g. Seagate Barracuda drives
require up to 45 seconds). Refer to the drive manufacturer's documentation for specific drive
information.
The solenoid lock is controlled by a timing switch located on the side of the receiving frame.
Refer to the section "Adjusting the Spin Down/Up Timer", for information describing the
readjustment of the timer setting.
The solenoid option provides an extra step in drive protection by preventing the removal and
movement of the drive until the drive motor has fully stopped.
The following information describes the necessary steps to attach the ON/OFF key to the key
lock mechanism so that it is non-removable, preventing accidental key loss. The procedure
can be reversed at a later date to revert back to a removable key.
1. Make certain power is OFF to the receiving frame.
Locate the rectangular-shaped key lock mechanism access hole on the inside of the receiving
frame. Note that the pawl is in an upright position.
Insert the key into the key lock.
2. Rotate the key 90 degrees counterclockwise so
that the pawl is visible in the access hole as
shown in the figure at left.
3. Using the provided alignment tool, unscrew and
