Installing Additional Modules Into the Rack
All modules that you add to the rack must be positioned above the module that you previously installed,
since the bottom module must be secured to the rack-mount shelves (unless you decide to uninstall the
entire library from the rack and reconfigure it).
Required parts: Rack ears, (4) M5 thumbscrews, (4) nut clips (if needed) or (4) cage nuts (if needed)
Explanation of parts: Each rack ear contains two elongated holes, enabling you to fasten it to the rack
using the M5 thumbscrews and either the nut clips or cage nuts (or neither if your rack has threaded holes),
using the most accessible mounting holes.
1 If you are installing a module above a module that currently has a top cover, remove the top cover.
Similarly, if the module you are installing has a bottom cover, remove the bottom cover before installing
the module above another module in the rack. You need to make sure the library is “hollow” all the way
through with just one bottom cover on the lowest module and one top cover on the top module. See
Installing the New 9U Expansion Module
on page 64.
2 Determine where in the rack to install the nut clips (or cage nuts).
