74 Library Installation and CRU Replacement
12 Park the robot assembly in the 5U Library Control Module. Before unstacking the library, the robot
assembly must be placed in the 5U Library Control Module.
a. Open the I/E station and access doors of each module.
b. Using your hands, gently lift the robot assembly into the 5U Library Control Module. The robot
assembly should glide slowly and with some resistance.
c. After raising the robot assembly to the approximate middle of the 5U Library Control Module,
hold it in place with one hand and, using your other hand, move the parking tab to the "parked"
position (Model 1 parking tab: swivel toward you; Model 2 parking tab: move in a counter-
clockwise direction). The metal parking tab is located at the bottom of column 1.
d. Gently release the robot assembly to rest on the parking tab.
13 If you are removing the lowest module of the library, remove the tape blockers (if present) from the
bottom row of that module. Set the tape blockers aside to be replaced in the new library configuration.
14 Remove all power supplies from each module that you intend to remove. For details, see Adding,
Removing, and Replacing Power Supplies on page 106.
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.
Libraries that have a Model 2 robot installed no longer use tape blockers. If
your library contains a Model 2 robot, do NOT install tape blockers. For
more information, see Removing and Replacing the Robot Assembly
on
page 164 and How to Determine Which Robot Your Library Contains
on
page 165.
