3.2 Powering Down the Cabinet The VAX 6000-series processor cabinets use H405 power controllers. To remove power from the cabinet, use the following procedure: 1. Locate the cabinet control panel in the upper-left corner of the front door. The cabinet control panel is shown in Figure 3–3. 2. With the console key, turn the Standby/Enable/Secure control switch to 0. 3. Turn the Update/Halt/Auto Start control switch to Halt. 4. Go to the rear of the cabinet. 5. Locate the H405 power controller. 6.

Locate the revision label on the side of the H405 power controller and check the revision.
If the H405–E/F revision level is: a. Revision H07 or above for H405–E, Revision J07 or above for H405–F: • The H405–E/F power controller contains unswitched ac outlets. • Replacement of the H405–E/F is unnecessary. b. Below revision H07 for H405–E; below revision J07 for H405–F: • The H405–E/F power controller contains switched ac outlets. • Continue this procedure to replace the H405–E/F. 7. Replace the H405–E/F power controller with the one in the 62X34–UA/UB upgrade kit. 3.3.1.
4. Swing the top of the door away from the cabinet, lift the bottom of the door up and out of the bottom hinge, and set the door aside. To install the new door: 1. Unpack the new door. 2. Set the packaging aside. 3. Ensure the top front door key pin is in the upper position. 4. Align the new front door with the bottom cabinet hinge. 5. Swing the new door into position and release the top front door key pin, locking the door into position. 6.
3.6.2 Moving the ESD Strap Use the following procedure to move and reattach the ESD strap: 1. Locate the front ESD packet, shown in Figure 3–4. The packet is adhered to a sheet metal transformer shield plate located left of the drive cavity. The packet contains the ESD ground strap, which is attached to the transformer shield plate in the top-right corner. 2. Move the front ESD ground strap from the top hole to the middle hole on the transformer shield plate.
3.6.3 Installing the 74-39405-01 BeCu Spring Clips Use the following procedure to install beryllium copper (BeCu) spring clips: 1. Install one BeCu spring clip (74–39405–01) under the front edge of the BBU shielding tray. Refer to Figure 3–5. 2. Install the other spring clip on top of the front of the cabinet base. Refer to Figure 3–5. The spring clip hem faces the front of the unit so that the clips compress when an enclosure is installed. 3.

Chapter 4 SA7x Controls and Indicators This chapter describes the controls and indicators on the front and rear panels of the SA7x enclosure. 4.1 SA7x Front Panel Controls and Indicators Figure 4–1 shows the front panel of the SA7x enclosure. The operator control panel (OCP), located along the top edge of the enclosure, contains the unit select switch and four identical sets of controls and indicators.

While a drive is powering up and spinning up, the controls and indicators have slightly modified meanings, as described in Section 5.2. Each control set for a disk drive position contains indicators and buttons and indicators for: Run Fault conditions Port A Write protection Unit number selection Port B You can set most switches by pushing them in. These switches hold the set position until released with another push. However, the Fault/Set No. switch is a momentary pushbutton.
Table 4–1 (Cont.): Front Panel Controls and Indicators Pressing this Switch Performs this Function Illuminates this Indicator Run switch Spins up the drive The yellow Run indicator illuminates after the drive spindle reaches operating speed. Then, the green Ready indicator illuminates to show that the drive is ready for read/write operations. The Ready indicator remains on during normal operations but may blink or go out during heavy disk usage.
4.2 SA7x Rear Panel Controls and Indicators All rear panel controls and indicators are located on the power supply chassis, as shown in Figure 4–2.
4.2.1 Master On/Off Switch The master on/off rocker switch for the SA7x enclosure is located in the center of the rear panel. Setting the switch to 1 applies power to the SA7x. Setting the switch to 0 removes power from the enclosure. 4.2.2 Line Voltage Select Switch As you face the rear panel, the line voltage select switch is located to the right of the master on/off switch. It is visible through a hole in the rear panel. This switch is set to the available line voltage during installation.
Chapter 5 Powering Up the SA7x Enclosure This chapter explains how to use the SA7x enclosure and drives and how to set the unit number. 5.1 Powering Up the SA7x Enclosure Apply power to the enclosure as follows: 1. Verify that the drive power switches on the front panel of the enclosure are set to off (switch button released). 2. Set the master on/off switch to 1. 3. Verify the power is on by checking that the fan starts and normal airflow exists through the enclosure.
The disk drive starts the drive’s internal power-on diagnostics. illuminate for about 8 seconds. Then: All indicator lights a. If the drive completes the power-on diagnostics without detecting a fault, all indicators go out. b. If the Fault/Set No. indicator remains on, the drive has detected a fault. Press the Fault/Set No. switch to clear the fault. 3. Press the Run switch on the operator control panel to spin up the drive. Figure 4–1.
5.4 Setting the Unit Number The unit number for any drive can be set at the operator control panel. This is the number by which the drive is known to the system. Once the number is in the drive, the system controller reads it according to the controller’s protocol. You must take a drive off line before changing its unit number.
Chapter 6 Installing RA7x Disk Drives This chapter describes how to install additional RA7x disk drives into SA7x enclosures that are not fully populated. These options include the SA70–LK, SA71–NK, SA72–NK, and SA73– NK. Other SA7x options described in this manual are fully configured (4 Disk Drives Installed) and cannot have additional RA7x drives installed. 6.1 Unpacking RA7x Disk Drives The add-on RA7x disk drive arrives in its own packaging.
2. Set the master on/off switch to 0. This removes power to the enclosure. 6.3 Installing the RA7x Disk Drive To install additional drives, remove the front cover. As you face the front of the enclosure, load the first add-on drive into the left position (position 3). Load the second add-on drive into the right position (position 4). Refer to Figure 6–1 and use the following procedure to install the RA7x disk drive into an SA7x enclosure. 1. Ensure power has been removed from the enclosure.
