1 Parking tab in "parked" position
6 Remove all power supplies from each module.
7 Remove all tape drives from each module.
Unstacking the Existing Modules
Unstack the modules as follows:
1 Starting with the topmost module of your library, open the I/E station and access doors.
Caution: Before unstacking the modules, the robot assembly must be parked as described in Preparing to
Install an Additional 9U Library Expansion Module above.
2 If your current configuration already uses a 9U Library Expansion Module, disengage the Y-rails so the modules can be
safely unstacked.
a From the front of the library, find the Y-rail release mechanism, which is located on the left side of the module.
Squeeze the handle of the Y-rail release mechanism, lift it, and release it so that it locks into place.
b From the rear of the library, find the rear Y-rail release mechanism located in the interior of the right side of the
module. Squeeze the handle of the Y-rail release mechanism, lift it, and release it so that it locks into place.
Note: The rear Y-rail is impossible to lift up with the tape drives installed.
