ArrayMasStor J Series (19” Rack Model, Tower Model ) USER’S MANUAL P/N A208233 Revision 1.2e Advanced Technology and Systems Co., Ltd. II WARNING l The AC power cord must be connected to a grounded outlet. In case of a short-circuit, electrical shock or fire may occur. l Do not use the ArrayMasStor in hot, humid or dusty environments. Usage under such conditions may result in a short circuit, electrical shock or fire. l The ArrayMasStor's cover must be securely attached to the chassis. If the cover is not properly installed, ventilation could be impaired and this may cause a short circuit, electrical shock or fire. l Do not block the ventilation opens. Without proper ventilation, the ArrayMasStor will malfunction or fail. l Use the supplied AC power cord. In case of a short circuit, electrical shock or fire may occur. CAUTION l Rapid temperature changes may cause condensation of humidity to form on the ArrayMasStor. Do not use the subsystem where it will not evaporate. l Do not install the ArrayMasStor near electronic components with strong electromagnetic fields, such as televisions or loud speakers. l Turn off the power before moving, connecting or disconnecting the ArrayMasStor. This will prevent vibrations or mechanical shocks from damaging the hard disk drives (HDD) and other internal components. l Do not remove the drive unit during normal operation, as this may cause damage, malfunction or data loss. The drive unit should be removed when they have failed and need to be replaced. l Use the appropriate SCSI host card for ArrayMasStor in accordance with single-ended or low voltage differential (LVD) SCSI interface. Using the wrong card may damage the subsystem or cause a malfunction to occur. l Use only the approved replacement drive unit in the ArrayMasStor. Please see Appendix D for a list of approved replacement parts. ArrayMasStor J Series User’s Manual III l Do not turn on and off in a rapid succession manner. Leave at least 15 seconds between turning on and off. This may avoid damage or malfunction. The HDD requires about 15 seconds to completely stop after turning off the ArrayMasStor. l Insert to push the drive unit firmly. A loose connection may damage the ArrayMasStor or cause it to malfunction. l Do not turn the ArrayMasStor off by unplugging the AC power cord from the rear panel. This may result in data loss. The ArrayMasStor’s firmware is designed to detect the status of the power switch and synchronize the data in the cache and the drives before shutdown. To control the power from the AC line, send a ‘synchronize cache’ 1 command from the host computer to the ArrayMasStor. l When unplugging the AC power cord, leave one minute further before plugging it again. This may prevent fuse damage. IMPORTANT ! l For optimum performance, the total length of the SCSI bus should be as short as possible. The total cable length must be less than 1.5 m for single-ended mode and 12m for LVD mode. l A maximum of two host computers can be connected to the ArrayMasStor in a dual host configuration. l Set the ArrayMasStor’s UNIX 2 C/H/S mode before connecting it to the operating systems shown below. Changing the UNIX C/H/S mode after installation may cause data loss. Solaris 3 (SPARC) 2.X IRIX 4 5.X l The backlight on the liquid crystal display (LCD) turns off automatically when the operation buttons are not used for a period of time. The backlight will turn on when the operation button is pressed. The backlight will stay on when a drive fails, when the ArrayMasStor is in data reconstruction mode, and during data initialization. 1 A SCSI command which ensures that logical blocks in the cache have their most recent data value recorded in the drives. 2 UNIX has two known standards, System V by AT&T and BSD4.x by Berkeley University. 3 Solaris™ and Spark™ is a Trademark of SUN Microsystems. 4 IRIX ™ is a Trademark of Silicon Graphics Inc. Advanced Technology and Systems Co., Ltd. IV l It is strongly recommended that up to two ArrayMasStors be connected to the same bus in the single-ended SCSI. l It is strongly recommended that the data be regularly backed up. In RAID levels 1 and 5, the ArrayMasStor will be operative when a drive fails. However, if two or more drives fail, all of the data may not be recoverable. And, if any other parts of the ArrayMasStor malfunction, there is possibility of data loss. l It is strongly recommended that the surface verification check implement before dynamic data reallocation. l It is strongly recommended that an interruptible power supply (UPS) be used with the ArrayMasStor to avoid data loss when the power line is unstable and power outrage happens.

The final data was reported in the worst-case emissions. The minimum margin to the limit is as follows : ReceiverCorrectionField FrequencyReadingFactorStrengthLimitMargin (MHz)(dBuV)(dB/m)(dBuV/m)(dBuV/m) (dB) 95.9550.0 -9.840.243.53.3 * All readings are quasi-peak mode. Field strength calculation The field strength is calculated by adding the Antenna Factor, Cable Factor and Antenna Pad, and subtracting the Amplifier Gain from the measured reading. The sample calculation is as follows : FS = RA + AF + CF + AT - AG Correction factor where FS = Field Strength RA = Receiver Amplitude AF = Antenna Factor CF = Cable Factor AT = Antenna Pad AG = Amplifier Gain Assume a receiver reading of 50.0dBuV is obtained. The antenna Factor of 10.0dB, Cable Factor of 2.4dB and Antenna Pad of 6.0dB is added. The Amplifier Gain of 28.2dB is subtracted, giving a field strength of 40.2dBuV/m. FS = 50.0 + 10.0 + 2.4 + 6.0 – 28.2 = 40.2dBuV/m Test report No. : 21FE0012-YK-2 Page: 9 of 16 Issued date: February 6, 2001 A-pex International Co., Ltd.
