Option 2: Cable the controllers to two NS224 drive shelves
You must cable each controller to the NSM modules on the NS224 drive shelves.
Before you begin
• Be sure to check the illustration arrow for the proper cable connector pull-tab orientation. The cable
pull-tab for the storage modules are up, while the pull tabs on the shelves are down.
As you insert the connector, you should feel it click into place; if you do not feel it click,
remove it, turn it around and try again.
