Installing The Hard Disc Drive (HDD) Hard Disc Drives are extremely sensitive to static and physical shock. Keep the drive protected from accidental falls and unnecessary handling. Fig. 4B - Core power switch & UPS power switch Be sure the power is off when installing the HDD. Before the jukebox may be used, the Hard Drive must be installed. This is supplied by E-cast after signing an operating agreement and providing a choice of music. In the manual package is a small envelope containing 4 Brass 6-32 x ¼ Thumbscrews. Use of adapters or removal of the grounding pin of the plug may create a potential shock hazard and will defeat the surge protection devices causing erratic operation or destruction of the electronic assemblies and void all warranties. The TouchMonitor is always powered up when the jukebox is plugged in. Be! careful when servicing. Unplug the Touchmonitor from the amplifier module before servicing. Fig. 3B - HDD on core Start four thumbscrews in the holes located in each edge of the drive. Connect the cables as shown in illustration 3B. The ribbon cable is connected such that the red stripe is on the side nearest the power connector. After connecting, dress the wiring and insert the drive into the slots on the core. Tighten the thumbscrews. Power Up and Touch Screen Calibration Power Up The system may be powered up after the drive is installed. NOTE: If the machine is being set up other than at the location it was programmed for, do NOT connect the Router at this time. B - 4 1.
