  • Page 31: Thumbscrews On The Rear Panel

    Thumbscrews on the Rear Panel There are two T-15 thumbscrews in the upper corners of the rear panel. Loosening these two screws allows the top panel to be removed, which in turn allows the left and right side panels to be removed from the workstation. The upper-left thumbscrew engages the safety interlock switch with the workstation’s power supply.
  • Page 32 Parallel Connector The 25-pin HP Parallel I/O interface uses Centronics interface protocols to support peripheral devices such as printers and plotters. Consult the documentation that accompanies each parallel peripheral device for specific information concerning its use.
  • Page 33: Figure 1-10

    SCSI Connectors There are two SCSI connectors on the rear panel: one NSE (Narrow Single-Ended) SCSI-2 connector, and one Ultra2 Wide LVD (Low Voltage Differential) SCSI connector.

  • Page 38: Internal Components On The Right Side

    Product Information Internal Components DC/DC Converter Units and Air Dividers (J7xxx Only) The J7xxx has two DC/DC converter units, which provide DC/DC conversion for the workstation, and two air dividers on its left side. (The J5xxx does not require any DC/DC converter units nor the air dividers.) The DC/DC converter units and air dividers are attached to the J7xxx by metal tie-down straps.
  • Page 39 Product Information Internal Components Power Supply Although the power supplies in the J5xxx and J7xxx look the same, their power outputs, weight, and the number of bus bars connecting them to the system board are different. The power supply in the J5xxx supplies 830 Watts of power to the workstation, weighs approximately 14 pounds, and is connected to the system board by three gold plated bus bars over the center wall of the chassis.

    • Ask the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help. Hewlett-Packard’s system certification tests were conducted with HP-supported peripheral devices and HP shielded cables, such as those you receive with your computer. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Hewlett-Packard could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

    Special Video Configuration Statement The following statement applies only to those applications which include a cable connected to the S-Video connector on the A248A card. No modification to the regulatory statements is necessary for applications which include cables connected to other connectors on the card but not to the S-Video connector.

    Regulatory and Safety Information Regulatory and Safety Statements Warnings WARNING: Removing the device cover may expose sharp edges in the equipment chassis. To avoid injury, use care when installing customer add-on devices. WARNUNG: Das Entfernen der Geräteabdeckung legt die scharfen Kanten im Inneren des Gerätes frei. Um Verietzungen zu vermeiden, seien Sie vorsichtig beim Einbau von zusätzlichen Bauteilen, die vom Kunden selber eingebaut werden können.

    fit on an NSE connector only. The LVD terminator has 68 pins and will fit on an LVD connector only. The following SCSI terminators are shipped with the J5xxx and J7xxx workstation: • 50-pin NSE terminator (HP Product Number A1658-63012) • 68-pin LVD terminator (HP Product Number A4986-63008) NOTE It is necessary to put a terminator on unused SCSI connectors on the rear panel of the workstation.
  • Page 200: Scsi Bus Length Constraints

    SCSI Connections SCSI Bus Length Constraints SCSI Bus Length Constraints This section discusses SCSI bus lengths constraints for the NSE and LVD SCSI buses. NSE SCSI Bus Length The maximum cable length for an NSE SCSI bus is 3 meters. The J5xxx and J7xxx workstation use a negligible amount of this maximum cable length.
  • Page 201: Assigning Scsi Device Ids

    Assigning SCSI Device IDs Before assigning a SCSI device ID to a new SCSI device, you need to determine which SCSI device IDs are available. To view the SCSI IDs already in use, type the following command at the prompt and press [Enter]: /usr/sbin/ioscan -f After a few moments, the ioscan utility lists all of the I/O devices it could find.
