    1.5 Panel mounting The AWS-8124 will stand on a shelf or a table, or you can mount it in a panel. Included with your AWS-8124, you’ll find three panel- mount brackets. The brackets have two screws that stick out and fit in the keyhole slots on the workstation chassis.

    2.1 General When you receive your mini-workstation, you should be able to plug-and-play since we have already installed and tested the workstation’s components in the factory. However, if you need to customize the AWS-8124 yourself, you will see that it is a simple job.
  • Page 21: Removing Top Cover And Rear Panel

    2.2 Removing top cover and rear panel To access the backplane, remove the top cover and rear panel. First remove the five screws that secure the top cover, then remove the top cover (see Figure 2-1). After you remove the top cover, unscrew the six screws on the rear panel and remove the rear panel.
  • Page 22: Adding Cards

    2.3 Adding cards The 4-slot passive backplane accepts half-size CPU and I/O cards. Slot number S4 has a little bit more space than the other slots. This slot lets you insert a CPU card with an on-board piggyback/PC-104 module. We strongly recommend these all-in-one cards, for they are durable and save valuable slot space by bundling a CPU with hard disk and floppy disk controllers, as well as serial and parallel ports.
  • Page 23: Removing The Protective Cover

    2.4 Removing the protective cover To reach the disk drives, power supply and monitor you must slide the main chassis out of its protective cover. First remove the top cover and rear panel as described in section 2.2. Remove the three screws on the side panel just above the card brackets.
  • Page 24: Installing Optional Drives

    2.5 Installing optional drives The AWS-8124 offers space for two disk drives. When you receive the station, a 3½” floppy drive is already installed. Only the upper drive bay offers access through the floppy disk door. The lower position should therefore be reserved for an optional HDD. To install the optional drive first remove the protective cover completely (see section 2.4).

    3.2 Power supply and cooling fan To service or replace the power supply and cooling fan, first remove the protective cover. (See section 2.4) To reach the power supply you must first remove the cooling fan. Four screws connect the fan to the chassis. Unscrew the fan and disconnect its power cable.

    The built-in crowbar circuit will shut down the outputs to avoid damaging the external circuits. The trip point of over voltage protection is around 6.4 V to 7.4 V. To recover from over voltage protection, cycle the AC line OFF and ON to make it restart. Short circuit protection The power supply will generate a hiccup mode to protect itself against short circuit or over load conditions, and will return to...
