Forensic Computers Tableau T35i SATA/IDE Bridge - Manual (Page 9)

SATA Det LED The SATA Det LED (SATA Detect) illuminates when a hard disk attached
to the SATA interface connector has been properly recognized. Only one
hard disk may be connected to the T35i at a time.
IDE Det LED The IDE Det LED (IDE Detect) illuminates when a hard disk attached to
the IDE interface connector has been properly recognized. Only one hard
disk may be connected to the T35i at a time.
Host Det LED The Host Det LED (Host Detect) indicates when the connected hard disk
has been recognized by the host computer. The Host Detect LED will
illuminate only after the T35i has successfully identified a hard disk
connected to the front of the T35i and after the host computer has "logged
in" to the coresponding T35i channel using the FireWire/1394 SBP-2
protocol.
Wrt Blk LED The Wrt Blk LED (Write Block) is illuminated whenever the Tableau bridge
is in READ-ONLY mode. This LED provides a positive indication that the
bridge may be used to capture a forensically sound image from a subject
hard disk.
Activity LED The Activity LED indicates that the host is performing some kind of I/O
to the connected hard disk.
DC OUT Connector The DC Out connector may be used to provide power from the Tableau
bridge to the subject hard disk. The DC Out output is controlled by the
power switch. So, using the DC Out connector guarantees that the drive
will be powered ON/OFF simultaneously with the T35i bridge.
Disk interface
Connectors (SATA and
IDE)
The disk interface connectors attach the subject hard disk to the T35i.
Tableau recommends the following cables:
Interface Cable
SATA
TC3-8
IDE TC6-8 or TC6-2
