Note: The cipher keys for the two CipherChains can be of same or

different code.

Disable reset switch jumper – By default, CipherChain-e reset switch is

enabled. To disable reset, remove the jumper. Disabling the reset switch

is recommended if the CipherChain-e is connected to a boot drive or non-

hotswap SATA controller card.

Reset switch – Under certain applications, the RESET button enables

the adding and removing of hard drives without restarting the system.

Following is an example of such an application:

When the cipher key is removed from the CipherChain-e that is

connecting an eSATA drive to a SATA port that supports hot swap,

pressing the reset switch will turn off the CipherChain-e, clear the

key code and remove the drive icon.

Disable reset

switch jumper

Likewise when an eSATA hard drive is plug into the CipherChain-e

first with out a cipher key then the cipher key is inserted into the

cipher keyhole, pressing the RESET button will initialized the drive.

Note that if the new hard drive is not encrypted or the Cipher key

does not match what is on the encrypted hard drive, it will show up

as an unallocated drive under the drive management screen and no

drive icon will show up in My Computer folder. So it is very important

to make sure that the correct Cipher key is used on the hard drive.

Proceeding to initialize the hard drive will erase all the data

beyond any possibility of recovery.

Note: Whenever the eSATA cable is disconnected from the CipherChain-

e, with the cipher key still inserted into the cipher keyhole this action will

turn off the CipherChain-e, clear the key code and remove the drive icon

on the system.

Green Power LED: In order to turn on the power to the CipherChain-e,

SATA host)

the cipher key must be inserted prior to power on the system or resetting

the CipherChain-e. If the power LED does not light up, the system will not

detect the hard drive connected to the CipherChain-e.

Yellow Power LED: Lights up when there is drive activity.

Basic Hardware Installation

Mount the CipherChain-e into the 3.5" drive bay on PC case.

Using the provided floppy Y-power cable connect the CipherChain-e

4-pin floppy power connector to the system's power supply.

Connect the Host SATA port on the CipherChain-e to the onboard

SATA port of the motherboard or an add-in SATA controller card

using a SATA cable.

How to operate the CipherChain-e:

Note: Hot swapping refers to the ability to plug and unplug the component

without rebooting.

Insert the AES 256-bit cipher key into the cipher keyhole on the

CipherChain-e.

For SATA port that supports hotswap.

With the system powered on, turn on the eSATA storage device.

For SATA port that does not support hotswap.

External storage must be connected to CipherChain-E. Power

on the system and eSATA storage device at the same time.

Observed that the green Power LED should light up. If it does not,

re-insert the cipher key and re-power the devices or reset the

CipherChain-e.

For new drive, go to the operating system's management utility to

partition, format and mount the encrypted drive.

Go to File Manager and view the encrypted drive.

Note: You may remove the cipher key from the CipherChain-e once

the CipherChain-e is powered on. All the files being transferred into

the drive are still encrypted even if the cipher key is removed.

Best Practices:



Create a label to identify the eSATA storage device and the Cipher

key used to encrypt the device.



Always keep a spare master key in a safe place.
