Fibre Channel Features
Loop Expansion
FORTRA 15-bay 2Gb/s Fibre Channel JBOD enclosures include a loop
expansion I/O connector on each fibre channel drive port. This allows the
connection to other Fibre Channel JBOD enclosures.
Loop Bypass and Clock Timing Circuit
Each port includes a loop bypass circuit that monitors each slot for a loop
connection. It has two modes of operation: NORMAL and BYPASS. In
NORMAL mode, the device is connected to the loop. In BYPASS mode, the
device is either absent or non-functional and data bypasses to the next available
device until the correct device is located.
The unit also has a built-in clock recovery circuit that adjusts the timing for any
input or output that is going through the enclosure.
SFP Connector
The 15-bay 2Gb/s Fibre Channel enclosures use Small Formfactor Plug (SFP) as
the Fibre I/O ports.
Dual Loops
A single loop is required for unit operation, however both loops can be used to
connect to different hosts, dual host adapters, and other devices, for flexible and
even redundant configurations. For specific connection and installation
ID Selection
0-124 device ID addresses are addressable and can be easily set-up via ID rotary
switches located on the personality modules. For specific connection and

4. Fibre Channel Setup
This chapter covers Fibre Channel device configuration and option settings. All
Fibre Channel 15-bay units have built-in SES on the personality card. Refer to
before beginning setup.
WARNING: Take care when connecting the unit to an AC power source to
ensure that it is plugged-in to a circuit of the appropriate rating (110v or
220v). For safe operation, the circuit should have over-current protection
to prevent damage to the unit in the event of circuit overloading.
WARNUNG: Vergewissern Sie sich, daß die Netzspannung (220V / 110V)
korrekt eingestellt ist, bevor Sie das Gerät mit dem Stromnetz verbinden.
Zur Sicherheit sollte das Netz über einen Überspannungsschutz zur
Vermeidung von Schäden im Falle einer Überlast verfügen.
WARNING: When connecting the unit to an AC outlet or power strip, ensure
that the outlet has the proper connection for grounding. The AC power
cables included with the unit have three prongs, one of which is used for
the ground connection. Do not use a two prong AC cable with the unit
since this will not allow for proper unit grounding and could cause
problems with normal unit operation.
WARNUNG: Bei der Verbindung der Unit mit einer Steckdose oder einer
Verteilerdose sollten sie auf eine korrekte Erdung derselben achten. Die
mitgelieferten Kaltgeräteanschlußkabel habe 3 Kontakte, von denen
einer zur Erdung verwendet wird. Verwenden Sie kein Stromkabel mit 2
Anschlüssen, da dieses keine korrekte Erdung ermöglicht und Probleme
während des regulären Betriebs verursachen kann.

Setting ID
Rotary switch settings only affect Slot 0 and all other slots are sequentially
increased by a value of one after that slot.
The ID is set sequentially starting from a base address. The base address, or
starting address, is set via a 0-7 position rotary switch located on the personality
module. There is a second 0-15 position rotary switch which can be changed to
modify the base address setting.
The default value for both switches is 0. In this default configuration, the device ID
values are as shown.
The 0-7 switch is used to set the
base address which is multiplied
by 16, and the 0-15 switch is
used to set the offset modifier to
the base address. The formula
for setting the ID is: x(16)+y,
where x is the 0-7 switch and y is
the 0-15 switch.
SW1 - ID
setting 0-15
SW2 - ID
setting 0-7
Ex. The 0-7 switch is set to 2, the 0-15 switch is set to 6. This sets the base address
to 38 (2*16=32, +6=38). So Slot 0 ID = 38, Slot 1 ID = 39, Slot 2 ID = 40, Slot 3
ID = 41, etc… up to Slot 9 ID = 47.
The table below provides the Slot 0 Starting (Base) Address Settings.

ID Conflict
When two devices share the same ID, a conflict occurs. This should not happen
unless two or more enclosures are daisy chained together. If devices in one
enclosure conflict with devices in another enclosure, the devices will re-arbitrate
ID and resolve the conflict.
Option Settings
Three option settings are located on the personality card. To access the jumpers,
the cover must be removed. The figure below shows the location of the option
settings on the personality card.

5. Blower Operation
This chapter covers all operations of the blowers for 15-bay units. Refer to
Chapter 1 for blower specifications. The blower is hot swappable and can be
removed or installed while the enclosure continues to function, however, failure
to replace a non-working blower within a reasonable period of time may expose
drives to extreme heat, which could cause loss of data.
WARNING: Blowers are a system critical component. Non-operating blowers
should be replaced as soon as possible to avoid data loss or device failure.
WARNUNG: Gebläse sind für die Funktion wichtige Komponenten. Nicht
funktionierende Gebläse sollten so schnell wie möglich ersetzt werden,
um Datenverluste oder Fehlfunktionen zu vermeiden.
The blowers are located on the back of the
unit and each have its own fault LED that
will light if the blower is non-operational.
Fault LED
Blower Removal/Insertion

head screwdriver can be used if the
thumbscrew is too tight to turn by hand.
2. Remove the blower sled by pulling out
on the handle and grasping the side of
the blower tray. Wait for the blower to
stop completely before removing it
from the unit.
Reverse the steps to reinstall the blower.
WARNING: To prevent injury when removing or installing the blower, do not
grab the bottom of the tray which is used for blower access intake. The
blower operates at high speeds and continues to spin for a short time
after power is disconnected.
WARNUNG: Um Verletzungen während der Entfernung oder Installation des

6. Power Supply Operation
This chapter covers all operations of the power supplies. For operation, the AC
cord (included) must be connected to the AC Inlet on each supply, and the power
supply must be switched ON. The 'OK LED' will light to indicate the power
supply is functioning properly. If the power supply experiences a problem and
cannot operate within its normal specifications, the Fault LED will light and the
power supply will shut itself off.
The power supplies also have their own fan included to maintain proper cooling
within each supply and also provide some additional, but minimal airflow through
the rest of the enclosure.

Low Power Mode (Standby Power)
When both power supplies are turned off, the unit will switch to low power or
standby mode and the power supply fans will continue to run. The unit blowers
will remain operational if a single power supply is turned off, not installed, or
fails, in order to maintain the proper low temperature within the unit. To stop the
power supply fans and turn the unit off completely, it must be disconnected from
the AC power source.
Power Supply Replacement
If the Power Supply Fault LED indicator is lit, the power supply may need to be
replaced. Before replacing, the power supply should be turned off, removed from
the enclosure, and reinstalled. The AC cable connection should be checked to
ensure that the connector is firmly seated and the power supply should be firmly
inserted with the thumbscrew tightly securing it. If the Fault LED indicator is still
coming on, then the power supply should be replaced.
If the fan in the power supply is not functioning but the power supply still works,
the power supply unit should be replaced as soon as possible. Leaving the power
supply running without the fan could cause the power supply to overheat and
shutdown at any time.
If you believe a power supply is in a nonfunctional state, please contact the place
of purchase for repair or replacement.
JMR part number for a replacement power supply is shown below. The assembly
includes the power supply installed in the canister.

SAFETY TIP: Both power supplies should be installed into the unit at all times
to maintain proper cooling and airflow within the enclosure. In the event
of a power supply failure, the faulty supply should be left in the enclosure
until a replacement power supply is available.

7. FR15 Cabinet Installation
This chapter covers the installation of the Rackmount enclosure into a standard
19" (483mm) wide and 30" (762mm) to 36" (914mm) deep cabinet that meets the
EMA/RETMA standards.
Before beginning rail installation, please take note of the following precautions:
NOTE: When installing the unit into a cabinet or closed environment, the
operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater
than the maximum recommended ambient temperature. Consideration
must be taken to meet the maximum recommended ambient temperature
(Tmra) for the best unit operation.
HINWEIS: Wenn das Gerät in einen Gehäuseschrank oder eine sonstige
geschlossene Umgebung verbaut wird, kann die Umgebungstemperatur
über die maximal zulässige Betriebstemperatur ansteigen. Maßnahmen
