Installing the external tape drive
Standard 2.0 Meridian Mail Mini and Enhanced Card Option May 2000
Installation and Maintenance Guide
5 Plug the SCSI cable into the SCSI connector marked IN
on the back of the tape drive. Because the Tandberg tape
drive has internal terminating resistors, you
must not
connect an external SCSI terminator to the SCSI
connector marked OUT on the back of the tape drive.
Leave the OUT connector unused.
6 Run the cable up through the bottom of the card cage,
and plug the other end into the SCSI port of the Disk/
Power Supply card.
7 Run the grounding wire back down through the bottom of
the cage and affix it behind the bar that runs the width of
the cabinet, using one of the screws holding the bar to
the front of the card cage.
8 If desired, mount the external tape drive below and to the
right of the cabinet, following the instructions in
“Mounting the external tape drive.” It should be
positioned so that it does not interfere with the cables
that run out of the bottom of the Meridian 1 cabinet.
Avoid mounting the tape drive where it will be subjected
to continuous shock or vibration.
9 Do you have a Tandberg tape drive?
• If yes, verify that the tape drive’s power is on.
• If no, continue.
10 Start Meridian Mail. (Refer to page 4-9.)
Note:
If you are installing Meridian Mail for the first time,
refer instead to the installation procedures in Chapter 3,
“Software installation.”
