The connectors for all of the external peripherals are located on the left side of the
rear panel of the HDIT 2U 1GHZ PIII SERVER,(See Figures 5 & 6). Some of the HDIT
2U 1GHZ PIII SERVER units come with a external SCSI Out connector. When
connecting peripherals, make sure the connectors are well seated in the port.
The main system power switch is located below the power supply on the
right side (See Figure 7). When mounting the HDIT 2U 1GHZ PIII SERVER into a rack,
please make sure all connections are secured in their appropriate ports before sliding
the unit into the rack.

Front Panel - CD-ROM
The HDIT 2U 1GHZ PIII SERVER is equipped with a SCSI CD-ROM,(See Figure 1).
To load a CD, press the CD tray eject button. Place the CD on the CD tray, and press
the tray eject button again. The CD activity light will illuminate intermittently, as the CD
is read.
Front Panel - PCMCIA Reader (If Equipped)
The HDIT 650-27R may be equipped with a Fortezza CompliantPCMCIA reader
located on the front panel. TAG has configured the PCMCIA reader with SCSI #3. The
reader contains two slots which are designed to accept Type I, Type II, and Type III
card types.
The PCMCIA reader is equipped with four LED indicators and two card eject
buttons,( See Figure 2). The upper card eject button is on the left side of the slots
and the lower card eject button is on the right side of the slots.
The green LED on the left side of the unit indicates power is being supplied to that
unit. The red LED below the power indicator, positioned below the power indicator,
will illuminate for one of the following three reasons:
•Nocardis inserted. When a card isinsertedcorrectly,the red LED turnsoff.
•Aslotisaccessedinwhichnocard is inserted. The red LED remains lit until the
cardintheotherslotisaccessed.
•Acardisinserted,butitcannot beaccessedbythePCMCIAreader.This errorcan
havevariouscauses;for example, the unit is attempting towritedatatoa write-
protected,aread-only, or an unknown I/Ocardora hardwareerror existsonthe
card.
The amber LEDs, on the right side of the PCMCIA reader, are the access indicators
for the upper and lower slots. The LED will illuminate when there is data activity on
the PCMCIA bus.
