Chapter 1: Introduction
A dummy plate covers the lower controller bay at the rear of the
subsystem.
1.1.2.6 Back-plane Board
Internal backplane boards separate the front and rear sections of the
FALCON II. The PCB board provide logic level signals and low voltage
power paths. They contain no user-serviceable components.
1.2 FALCON II Subsystem Components
The FALCON II houses many active components and most of them can be
accessed through either the front or rear panel. The modular design of the
active components facilitates their easy installation and removal. Hot-swap
mechanisms are incorporated to eliminate power surges and signal glitches
that might occur while removing or installing these modules.
1.2.1 LCD Panel
Figure 1-6: LCD Panel
PN: IFT-9273CHandLLCD
The LCD panel shown in Figure 1-6 consists of a 16x2-character LCD
screen with push buttons and LED status indicators. The LCD front panel
provides full access to all RAID configuration settings and monitoring
functions. After powering up the subsystem, the initial screen will show the
subsystem model name. A different name may be assigned for the system or
different arrays. This will enable easier identification in a topology with
numerous arrays.
