188 General Service and Replacing FRUs
Preparing to use the Library
1 Replace the top plate and left-side cover panel on the chassis, if you removed them earlier.
2 Replace the 5U Library Control Module to the desired location in the library, if you removed it earlier.
For details about stacking and installing in a rack, see Replacing the 5U
Library Control Module on
page 87 (ignore instructions about replacing the LCB and unparking the robot).
3 Restack the remaining 9U Expansion Modules of the library as necessary. For details about stacking
and installing in a rack, see Replacing the 9U Expansion Module
on page 96.
4 Replace the power supplies, tape drives, and cartridges in the module(s).
5 Unpark the robot assembly.
a. Gently raise the robot assembly so that it no longer rests on the parking tab.
b. With your free hand, move the parking tab to the "unparked" position so that it is removed
completely from the interior of the module (Model 1 parking tab: swivel the parking tab away
from you; Model 2 parking tab: move in a clockwise direction). When replaced correctly, the
parking tab will not accidentally swivel into the path of the robot.
c. Gently release the robot assembly. It will lower to the bottom module of the library.
6 Close the library’s I/E station and access doors.
7 Power on the library.
Support the robot assembly by holding onto the broad metal X-axis
base plate. Lifting the robot by the thin metal rod will bend the rod.
Lifting the robot by the black plastic picker body can damage the
robot.
