 Unit ID Number Indicator - This BLUE LED displays the status of the SATA DE110

device carrier if the carrier is Installed and Locked in the receiving frame or if the carrier

is removed from the receiving frame. If the carrier is Installed but not Locked in the

receiving frame, a "u" will be displayed to indicate an unlocked condition. The unit ID

number is selected by means of the unit ID select switch inside the receiving frame using

a special alignment tool supplied with the SATA DE110 (Figure 9).

 The Activity Indicator - A small BLUE dot next to the unit ID number illuminates to indicate

when the host computer is accessing the data on the SATA DE110 carrier. This dot

will flash during communication with the host computer.

Some SATA drives/host controllers provide support for the Activity Indicator feature

(refer to the SATA drive/host controller manufacturer's documentation for further infor-

mation). There are one of two ways to utilize the Activity Indicator:

1. Drive connection (cable included) to JP1 located on Drive Carrier Board (Figure 4).

2. Host connection (cable not included) to J2 Pin 13 located on Receiving Frame

Motherboard (Figure 5).

Use one method only. Refer to the SATA drive/host controller manufacturer's documen-

tation for further information.
