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.
