IDEX 400 SATA - Installation & Operation
oPeraTion
General
The IDEX 400 drive selector activates the selected drive at the moment when the PC power is turned on. Once the power
is on any selection changes have no effect.
There are two modes of operation that determine how the active drive is selected:
Local: The local selector switch, on the front of the drive selector, selects the drive to activate
Master: A remote Master Selector switch sends a signal to one or more IDEX units and tells the electronics
which drive to select.
Front Panel Indicators
There are five LED lights on the face of the IDEX 400. One group of LED indicators on the front panel is labeled
“Active Drive”, and a separate LED indicator is called “Master”. Only one drive can be active at a time, so only one of
the four “Active Drive” indicators should be on.
The “Master” light will only be on when the IDEX unit is connected to a Master Selector.
