Hardware Implementation

Quantum DLT 4000 Tape Drive 2-3

2.1.3 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection

Various electrical components on/within the tape drives are sensitive to static

electricity and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Even a static buildup or discharge

that is too slight to feel can be sufficient to destroy or degrade a component's

operation.

To minimize the possibility of ESD-related damage to the drive, we strongly

recommend using both a properly installed workstation anti-static mat and a

properly installed ESD wrist strap. When correctly installed, these devices reduce

the buildup of static electricity that might harm the drive.

Observe the following precautions to avoid ESD-related problems:

• Use a properly installed anti-static pad on your work surface.

• Always use a properly fitted and grounded wrist strap or other suitable ESD

protection when handling the drive and observe proper ESD grounding

techniques.

• Hold the drive only by its sides. Do not touch any components on the

PCBA.

• Leave the drive in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it in the

system.

• Place the drive on a properly grounded anti-static work surface pad when it

is out of its protective anti-static bag.

• Do not use the bag as a substitute for the work surface anti-static pad. The

outside of the bag may not have the same anti-static properties as the

inside. It could actually increase the possibility of ESD problems.

• Do not use any test equipment to check components on the PCBA. There are

no user-serviceable components on the drive.

2.2 DRIVE SETUP

Drive setup for DLT 4000 tape drive includes the following:

• Set the SCSI ID for the drive (default = SCSI ID 5)

• Configure the drive to provide TERMPWR

• Set parity checking for the drive (default = parity checking enabled)

If you want to change any of the settings, go to the applicable subsection;

otherwise, proceed directly to section 2.3.
