Adjusting the Spin Down/Up Timer

NOTE:

The timer for device spin down is controlled by a small selector, located in a cutout

on the side of the DE300i-SWC160 receiving frame as shown in Figure 10. The

amount of time required for a drive to spin down is approximately 15 seconds or

more. This number can vary depending on the type of SCSI device and

manufacturer (some drives may require 45 seconds or more). The factory

configuration is set for 20 seconds. A different delay time may be selected with

the provided alignment tool. Refer to the SCSI device manu-facturer’s manual for

more information on required device spin down time.
