Chapter 2 - Installation Power Cable The AC power cable is a standard grounding AC cable which attaches to a connector on the rear panel. Connect the cable to the connector on the module, and connect the other end to a reliably grounded AC outlet or rack power outlet. To maintain product safety compliance, use a power cord with a suitable electrical rating that is approved for the country where the product is used. In the US, use a UL listed cord; in Canada, a CSA certified cord; and in Europe, use a Harmonized cord marked <HAR> or a nationally certified cord. Note: After connecting the LibraryXpress Base Module to your AC source, It is a good practice to power up and test the module before connecting to the host computer. SCSI Interfaces The DLT LibraryXpress Base Module may be ordered with a choice of single-ended or differential SCSI-2 interfaces. The LXB4X10, Fast SCSI-2 interface, uses two female, high-density 50-pin D-series connectors per bus. SCSI-2 cables and terminators are secured to the connectors by spring loaded latches. The LXB7X10, Fast/Wide SCSI Interface uses high-density 68-pin connectors. Fast/Wide SCSI cables and terminators are secured to the connectors by jackscrews. Both of these SCSI interfaces are provided with independent bus wiring. That is, each drive has a separate bus, with a pair of SCSI connectors, and the library robotics has a separate bus, with a pair of SCSI connectors. In this configuration, there are six SCSI connectors on the rear panel. In the singledrive models, the connectors labeled DLT 2 are inactive. SCSI jumper cables can be used for daisy-chained applications. Each of the drives and the library robotics are separate SCSI devices. Each requires a unique SCSI address if they are daisy-chained on the same bus. 17
