Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Electrostatic charges can damage the integrated circuits on printed circuit boards. To prevent such damage from occurring, observe the following precautions during board unpacking and installation: Stand on a static-free mat. Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged from your body to ground. Create a common ground for the equipment you are working on by connecting the static-free mat, static strap, routing nodes, and peripheral units to that piece of equipment. Keep uninstalled printed circuit boards in their protective antistatic bags. Handle printed circuit boards by their edges, once you have removed them from their protective antistatic bags.

SCSI Connections SCSI Restrictions

SCSI Restrictions

This section describes the SCSI restrictions that apply to your workstation in the following areas: Cables Terminators Number of Devices Per SCSI Bus Considerations for Selecting SCSI Devices Note that the narrow single-ended SCSI bus supports only 7 devices because address 7 is reserved by the system. The Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI bus supports only 15 devices because address 7 is reserved by the system.

Cables

Only SCSI cables approved by HP can be used to connect your workstation to any SCSI devices. HP offers the following SCSI cables for Ultra Narrow Single-Ended SCSI devices: Table 4-2 Ultra Narrow Single-Ended SCSI Cables Cable Number C2955A C2908A C2956A C2957A Cable Length 0.5m 1.0m 1.5m 2.0m Description

SCSI cables approved by HP are designed to function within the SCSI tolerances for HP devices. Use of other cables can result in signicant problems with system operation.
Always use the shortest possible cable(s) for your conguration.
See SCSI Bus Length Constraints later in this chapter to determine the total length of your cables.

Terminators

The terminators for Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI (LVD SCSI) and Ultra Narrow Single-Ended SCSI (NSE SCSI) are different. The NSE SCSI terminator has 50 pins and will t on a NSE SCSI connector. The LVD SCSI terminator has 68 pins and will t on a LVD SCSI connector. Note that these SCSI terminators were shipped with your system.

It is necessary to put a terminator on unused SCSI connectors on the back panel of the system. However, if SCSI devices are attached to the bus via these connectors, the external device connected to the SCSI bus must be terminated with a SCSI terminator. If you do not already have the SCSI terminators, you must order terminator A1658-63012 (for the 50-pin terminator; NSE SCSI) or A4986-63008 (for the 68-pin terminator; LVD SCSI) from Hewlett-Packard.
Number of Devices Per SCSI Bus
The number of SCSI devices per bus is limited (see Table 4-1). Before adding another SCSI device, determine if the system can support the additional device. This workstation offers the following types of SCSI buses, each with their own conguration constraints: Ultra Narrow Single-Ended SCSI bus Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI bus
Considerations for Selecting SCSI Devices
SCSI devices supported by the Hewlett-Packard Company for the Ultra Narrow Single-Ended (NSE) and Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential (LVD) SCSI buses have been qualied as SCSI devices which meet NSE and LVD specications. Contact your local HP sales representative for a current list of SCSI devices supported by HP for use on the Ultra Narrow Single-Ended and Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI buses. If devices other than those supported by HP are connected to the Ultra Narrow Single-Ended or the Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI 86 Chapter 4
SCSI Connections SCSI Restrictions bus on this system, they must adhere to cabling, termination and bus length restrictions discussed in this chapter to assure functionality of the SCSI busses. Because Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI is a relatively new technology, there can be products which are advertised as LVD compliant, but may not meet LVD specications. Therefore, additional caution must be exercised when choosing Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI devices other than those supported by Hewlett-Packard Company to connect to the Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI bus on this system. For example, the cabling inside one of these devices in question may not have a differential impedance between 110 and 135 ohms and it may be constructed in a way such that the device has considerable crosstalk on critical signals, such as Reset, Select and Busy. Failure to strictly adhere to the Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI bus specications will impact the performance of the LVD bus. The Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential interface is a much higher performance SCSI bus than previous SCSI buses and is more sensitive to adherence to the electrical specications. Low-voltage differential signaling specications are described in the SCSI Parallel Interface-2 (SPI-2) document and in the Electrical Characteristics of Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) Interface Circuits TIA/EIA-644 document. Both of these documents can be obtained from: Global Engineering Documents 15 Inverness Way East Englewood, CO 80112-5704 800-854-7179 or 303-397-7956

Changing Your Computer Hardware Conguration Memory Cards

Memory Cards

This section contains information regarding the installation and removal of memory (DIMM cards). However, before continuing with this section, please take time to read the following list of considerations: Use the procedure described in The Boot Console Interface chapter to determine the current memory conguration for this computer. This should be done before trying to install additional memory DIMMs in your computer. Read over the steps in the section Installing Additional Memory before you begin the installation of your DIMM cards. Inserts DIMMs in the order shown. Please refer to Figure 5-45. Be sure you understand the proper orientation for DIMMs when inserting them into their connectors because the connectors are keyed to prevent you from putting them in backwards. See Figure 5-46. Use the Boot Console Interface to verify that the computer recognizes the additional DIMMs when you have nished installing them. Note that you can also use SAM and select the Performance Monitor icon, then the System Properties icon, and in the window that appears, select the tab labeled Memory.
Installing Additional Memory
Perform the following steps to add memory (DIMM cards) to your computer.
Lay the system on its right side (using the system units front panel as a reference) as shown in Figure 5-44. Note that before laying the system unit on its side you should put it on a cushioned surface to avoid damage to the system units exterior.

Changing Your Computer Hardware Conguration Memory Cards 3. Position the memory slots so they face you as shown in Figure 5-45. Note that Figure 5-45 also provides the loading sequence for the DIMM cards. This loading sequence must be maintained when you install the DIMM cards, but the size of the DIMM card put in each slot can vary. For example, you can install a 128Mbyte card before a 256Mbyte card and then follow the installation of the 256Mbyte card with another 128Mbyte card. The B1000 and C3000 computers use only 128 Mbyte and 256 Mbyte DIMM cards. 4. Remove the hard disk drive fan as explained in the section Removing the Fan from the Hard Disk Drive Area in this chapter, and load the DIMM cards in the slots using the loading sequence provided in Figure 5-45.

USB Connectors

The USB connectors located on the rear panel of the workstation provide an interface for the keyboard and mouse to the system. These USB connectors support only the HP keyboard, scroll mouse and hub. The keyboard and mouse may be plugged into the rear of the workstation or plugged into the USB hub. No other USB conguration is currently supported. Consult the documentation that accompanies each input device for specic information concerning its use. For more information on the Universal Serial Bus, refer to the following URL: http://www.usb.org CAUTION Usage of devices other than USB specication may result in unpredictable functionality and inferior performance of the B1000/C3000 workstations.
The USB clip on the rear of the chassis provides strain relief for the USB cables.
HP Parallel I/O Connector
The 25-pin HP Parallel I/O interface uses IEEE 1284 I/O interface protocols to support peripheral devices such as printers and plotters. Consult the documentation that accompanies each peripheral device for specic information concerning its use.

802.3 Network Connectors

The B1000/C3000 workstations have a built-in Twisted Pair (TP) connector for the 802.3 (ETHERNET) or 10BaseT/100BaseT network. Connections to ThinLAN networks require
an external transceiver. The workstation automatically selects the correct network setting.
RS-232 Serial Input/Output Connectors
There are a variety of peripheral devices that can attach to the RS-232 Serial Input/Output (SIO) ports on this workstation. Refer to the label on the rear of the workstation to locate serial port 1 and serial port 2. Peripheral devices include printers, plotters, modems, and scanners. Consult the documentation that accompanies each peripheral device for specic information concerning its use. The SIO ports are programmable, allowing functions such as bit rate, character length, parity, and stop bits to be set using the System Administration Manager (SAM) or by selecting a system special device le with the functions already programmed. The SIO Ports are used as interfaces for serial asynchronous devices to the CPU. Table 1-4. shows the SIO connector pin listings. The serial connectors are 9-pin D-sub connectors. Signal names are those specied in the EIA RS-232 standard. Table 1-4. Serial I/O Pins

HIL and PS/2 devices are not supported by the B1000/C3000 workstations.

USB HP Scroll Mouse

The HP scroll mouse (USB) has a left and right button that function the same as most mice. However, it also has a scroll wheel located between the two buttons that allows for vertical scrolling in a window. Note that vertical scrolling will only occur if you are in a windows vertical scroll bar. This scroll wheel also functions as a middle button when you press down on it. Essentially, the HP scroll mouse is a three-button mouse. For general information on the various cursor shapes associated with different areas of HP CDE while using a mouse, see the Using Your HP Workstation document.

HP Hub for USB Devices

The HP USB hub (part number D6804) provides the ability to connect more than one USB device to the workstation, as well as the ability to extend your USB devices cable length. As an example, you may desire to locate the workstations keyboard and mouse at a greater distance from your workstation. To accomplish this, connect the HP USB hub to one of the USB connectors on the rear of the system. The keyboard and mouse are then plugged into the USB hub. This is the only acceptable USB hub conguration currently supported by Hewlett-Packard.

Field Replaceable Units FRU Removal and Replacement
FRU Removal and Replacement
The procedures in this section describe how to remove eld replaceable units (FRUs). Observe any notices and prerequisites before removing a FRU. Replacement is the reverse of removal, unless noted. Before performing these procedures, observe the following precautions: Step 1. Power off the system, the monitor, and any peripheral devices.
There is no need to manually shutdown the HP-UX operating system on the workstation before switching it off. When the front panel power switch is pressed to off, the workstation automatically shuts down the operating system before terminating the power. Wait for the system to completely shutdown and power off before disconnecting the power cord.

Unplugging the power cord while HP-UX is running can damage the system les. Do not remove the left side panel before powering down the workstation. Remember that the left side panel is integral to the power supply safety interlock.
Step 2. Unplug the workstation power cord and the power cord of any peripheral devices from AC wall outlets. Step 3. Unplug the system unit power cord from the AC input connector. Step 4. Disconnect any external cables from the connectors on the front and rear of the system unit. Step 5. Attach a static-grounding wrist strap to your wrist and a location on the system chassis that is bare metal. Attach the sticky end of the wrist strap to bare metal on the rear panel of the workstation. Step 6. Lay the workstation on a at stable surface, such as a table top or oor. To protect against scratches, remove miscellaneous debris and preferably use an ESD mat to cushion the workstation.
Follow normal ESD, anti-static precautions when handling the workstation or any of its components. Failure to do so can cause component degradation or failure.
Step 7. If installed, remove any locking device from the security loop on the rear of the system unit. To access the storage media, the front panel security lock must be in the unlock position.

System Unit Front Panel

This section describes how to open and close the workstation front panel. Opening the System Unit Front Panel Perform the following steps to open the system unit. 1. Power off the workstation, and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. 2. Attach the static-grounding wrist strap by following the instructions on the package. Attach the sticky end of the wrist strap to bare metal on the back panel of the system unit. 3. Unlock the front panel (also known as the front bezel) by pressing in on the two latch buttons located on the right side of the front panel. See Figure 4-5. Figure 4-5. Opening the Front Bezel

double click To press and release a mouse button twice in rapid succession. The amount of time that discriminates between a double click and two single clicks is usually user-congurable. Double clicking usually invokes a different, but related, function than single clicking. drag To move the mouse (and
hence the pointer on the screen) while holding down one or more of its buttons. This process species two separate locations on the screen for those operations that require two: the location when the mouse button is pressed, and the location when it is released. This is used, for example, to initiate a le-copy by pressing the mouse button on the le to be copied, dragging the les icon to the destination window, and releasing the mouse button there. Another common using of dragging is to specify the upper-left and lower-right corners of a new window or similar rectangle See also drop. drive See CD-ROM drive, DDS tape drive, oppy drive, hard disk drive drop To release the mouse button after having moved the mouse with its button held down, in order to position an icon or other object that has been dragged to a new position See also drag.

These conditions and values include your workstation characteristics, home directory, and default search paths See also environment. Ethernet The LAN developed jointly by Digital Equipment Corporation, Intel, and Xerox Corporation, upon which the IEEE 802.3 network is based.
EEPROM. Electronically erasable read-only memory. Usually bytes or words can be erased and reprogrammed individually during Fast Narrow Single-Ended SCSI An 8-bit-wide SCSI bus with standard receivers and drivers
that runs at 20 Mbytes/second, which allows a cable length of up to 3 meters and a transfer rate of up to 20MB per second See also Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI, Small Computer System Interface. le The basic named unit of data stored on disk See also directory, lename. le access permissions The access rights given to a particular le or directory. Every le and directory has a set of access permissions, a code that determines whether a process can perform a requested operation on the le (such as opening the le or writing to it) See also access permissions. File Manager The HP CDE application that allows you to manage your les and directories, and to set viewing preferences. lename The name given to a particular le See also absolute pathname, le, pathname. le server A workstation whose primary task is to control the storage and retrieval of data from hard disks. Any number of other workstations can be linked to the

le server via a LAN in order to use the le server to access data. le system The hierarchically organized set of les and directories on a hard disk. rmware The control software that is embedded in ROM and is always resident regardless of the status of the operating system. It handles the booting of the system, initialization of I/O, and starts the loading of the operating system. oppy diskette A thin, exible, disk-shaped sheet of plastic that magnetically stores data on its coated surfaces. Floppies are contained within stiff plastic envelopes to protect them from dust, ngerprints, and abrasion. The oppy drive uses heads (similar to heads in tape recorders) to read and write data on concentric disk tracks. oppy drive A device that stores data on a oppy diskette.
hard disk A type of disk that is rigidoften aluminumas opposed to a thin plastic diskette, which is exible.
hard disk drive A device that stores data on a hard disk. The hard disk can be a permanent part of the drive and thus be unremovable, or it can be removable. If it is removable, it is contained in a protective cover that is opened by the drive when access is needed. Help Manager The HP CDE application that provides online help. $HOME The environment variable that contains the name of a users home directory. This is the directory in which you are placed upon logging in. Typically, this is /home/login, where login is your username. See also home directory. home directory A shorthand way of referring to a frequently used directory, almost always the login directory. host A computer that offers one or more services; may be local or remote (accessible via a network) See also cluster server. host name address. HP CDE See internet protocol
Desktop Environment. HP Common Desktop Environment A user interface that draws a graphical layer over the complexities of the other layers of the system (the hardware, operating system, and X Window system), enabling you to control your workstation by directly manipulating graphical objects instead of by typing commands at a command-line prompt. HP-UX. This is Hewlett-Packards version of the UNIX operating system. HP-UX cluster See cluster node, cluster server.
icon A small, graphic representation of an object. Objects can be iconized (turned into icons) to clear a cluttered workspace. Icons can be restored to their original appearance when needed. Whatever processes are executing in an object continue to execute when the object is iconized. iconify See iconize.
