Chapter 6: Performing Library Operations
Unlocking and Opening the I/E Station
146 Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User’s Guide
Opening the I/E station consists of pulling outward on the magazine
bezel handle until the magazine stops moving. The magazine will
automatically stop when the entire I/E station is exposed.
Note: Because the I/E station is part of the magazine, all storage slots
contained in that magazine are unavailable to applications
during the time that the I/E station is open.
Note: On the Scalar i80, if you want to open more than one I/E
station, such as when importing multiple tape cartridges,
unlock and open both I/E stations before you close either of
them. Otherwise, if you open and close one at a time, you must
wait for the robot to complete inventory on the one being
closed before it can open the other one.
For more information about the physical location and capacity of the I/E
station, see
Configuring I/E Station Slots on page 63.
