Refer to the Appendix at the end of this document for instructions on how to connect the SCSI Connected Storage Device. Link the Workstation to the ER The procedures outlined in this sub-section require the use of the CAT-5E crossover cable. A. Plug one end of the CAT-5E crossover cable into the ER’s LAN 1 port. NOTE: When facing the rear of the chassis, the LAN 1 port is the port on the left. Portion of SL chassis rear Portion of HL chassis rear B. Plug the other end of the CAT-5E crossover cable into the setup workstation’s network card. NOTE: If a CAT-5E coupler was packaged with your unit, this coupler can be used if the crossover cable is not long enough for your setup. Plug one end of the CAT-5E crossover cable into the ER, and the other end into the coupler. Plug a standard CAT-5E cable into the other end of the coupler, and the free end of the standard CAT-5E cable into the setup workstation. C. Plug the ER into a power source with an appropriate rating. WARNING: It is strongly suggested you use an uninterruptible power supply. D.
