Introduction 1 DATA EXPRESS® DE100i-SWU2 INTRODUCTION Packaging Materials The Kingston Technology Data Express® system is shipped in a container designed to provide protection and prevent damage during shipment. The Data Express unit was carefully inspected before and during the packing procedure at the factory. Bent or broken connectors, or evidence of other damage to the Data Express should be reported to the shipper immediately. Refer to Figure 1 for the package contents.
2 Introduction Package Contents The DE100i-SWU2 package contents include the following items: Table 1: Shipping Contents One Kingston Data Express SCSI System Part Number DE100i-SWU2 (Carrier & RF) DE100i-CSWU2 DE100i-RSWU2 (Carrier) (Receiving Frame) Drive Carrier DE100i-CSWU2 (1) Receiving Frame DE100i-RSWU2 (1) Alignment Tool D45-0000-0037 (1) Phillips Mounting Screws (#6-32 by 3/16 F.H.
Introduction 3 General Description The Kingston Technology Data Express® DE100i-SWU2 is composed of a receiving frame which supports Ultra2 (LVD) Wide Single-Ended/Differential SCSI interfaces and fits within a 5.25" half-height peripheral slot (Figure 2). The receiving frame contains one removable drive carrier designed to provide durable and reliable mounting for one 3.5" form factor SCSI drive.
4 Introduction The Receiving Frame Front Panel The Key Lock/Drive Power Switch performs three functions. The key lock assures proper seating of the drive carrier within the receiving frame, turns power to the drive carrier on and off, and prevents unauthorized removal or installation of the carrier. For the computer to access data on the Data Express disk drive, the key must be turned counter-clockwise to the locked position.
Introduction 5 Figure 4: Unit Number Display Conditions The Receiving Frame Rear Panel I/O Connector (J2): The input/output connector provides a standard interface for all SCSI signals. DC Power Connector (J3): The Data Express uses a standard 4-pin Molex Disk Power Connector to accept DC power. Factory-Installed Jumpers (J4): There are two (2) jumpers factory-installed on J4. One jumper is located on Pins 7 & 8, the other on Pins 9 & 10.

Installation 7 DATA EXPRESS INSTALLATION Installing the Drive into the Carrier Preparation While performing the steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive shock to the drive being installed. Also refer to the manufacturer's documentation provided with the drive. NOTE: A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure. 1. Remove the drive from its protective packaging. 2.
8 Installation Installation 1. Attach the I/O interface cable from the rear distribution board of the Data Express carrier to the disk drive (Figure 6). 2. Attach the four-pin disk power cable from the rear distribution board to the disk drive (Figure 6). 3. Install the five-pin ID select cable into the rear signal distribution board connector. Refer to Figure 7 for a typical 2mm drive pin connection. 4. Carefully insert the drive into the carrier at an angle, cable-end first.
Installation 9 TYPICAL 2MM DRIVE ID PIN CONFIGURATION Figure 7 illustrates a typical SCSI ID select connection to a drive with 2mm ID select pins. The wires on the wire harness connect to the positive pin (or signal pins) on the disk drive. In some cases, the drive manufacturer will label the signal pins as Pin 1, 3, 5, 7, (instead of 0, 1, 2, 3 as shown in Figure 7 below). Also, in some cases, the even-numbered Pins 2, 4, 6 are used for Ground.
10 Installation Installing the Receiving Frame The drive should be installed into the carrier before installing the receiving frame into the mounting bay of a computer or expansion chassis. NOTE: Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver during this procedure. 1. Turn off power to the computer. 2. Open the computer system according to the manufacturers instructions. If necessary, temporarily remove any expansion boards that may make installation difficult. 3.

12 Installation IMPORTANT NOTE: In order to use remote ID selection from a computer or expansion chassis, the Unit ID number on the Data Express receiving frame must be set to '0' with the provided alignment tool. Refer to the section "Selecting the Unit Number" later in this manual for the Unit ID selection procedure. 4. With the drive carrier locked in place inside the receiving frame, install the Data Express into the 5.25 drive opening in the computer or expansion chassis.
Installation 13 8. Connect the power cable from the DC power supply in the computer or expansion chassis to the power connector on the Data Express receiving frame. Refer to Figure 5 for the Data Express receiving frame power connector location. 9. Replace any expansion boards that may have been removed earlier. Replace the system cover according to the manufacturers instructions. 10. Reconnect any system or peripheral cables removed earlier. 11. Turn on power to the computer.
14 Installation NOTE: 5. The lock on the Data Express receiving frame serves two functions: 1) as a lock to secure the drive, and 2) as a DC power switch for the carrier unit. The lock must be engaged (turned counter-clockwise) in order to supply power to the drive carrier. The new drive may need to be formatted or initialized prior to use with the operating system and applications software. Refer to the drive and/or computer manufacturer's documentation for formatting information.
