This section gives an overview of the front of the DVS system. After a
general overview of the front, the faceplate of the device and how to
open it will be described first. This will be followed by descriptions of
the operation items behind the faceplate and the hard disk array. The

2.2.1 The Front of the System
This section provides an overview of the front of the system:
Figure 2-1: Overview of the front
The faceplate covers the fan area, the operation items in the middle of
the device and the hard disk array.
It is built with an integrated backlit DVS logo which indicates the state
of the system, i.e. its power-on status: If the DVS logo is illuminated,
the power is turned on; if not, the power is turned off.
The bottom side of the faceplate is hinge-fastened, while its top side is
fixed with magnets. If you need access, for example to the operation
items, you just have to fold down the faceplate:

Then you can access the operation items (see section “Operation
Items” on page 2-6), the fans of the fan area (see section “Fan Area” on
page 2-9) and the hard disks of the hard disk array (see section “Hard
Disk Array” on page 2-7).
The faceplate can be removed for transport reasons (see sec-
tion “Removal of the Faceplate” on page 5-13).
