T200, T380, or T680 Transporter Replacement Install the New Transporter
August 2012 Replacing the Transporter—Spectra T200, T380, and T680 Libraries
24
When accessing the transporter from the right side of the library:
a. Grasp the bottom edge of the transporter carriage and gently pull it
toward you, moving the transporter as close as possible to the right
side of the library.
b. Grasp the edge of the cartridge picking mechanism and gently move
the mechanism toward the front of the library.
c. To provide easier access to the ribbon cable attached to the
transporter, gently rotate the cartridge picking mechanism clockwise
90° so that it is in a vertical position (see Figure 15 on page 18).
6. Plug the ribbon cable into the edge connector on the printed circuit
board mounted on the back of the transporter. You will hear an audible
click as the connector snaps into place.
Note: If you are working from the front of the library, it is easiest to
reach over the top of the cartridge picking mechanism.
7. If you rotated the cartridge picker mechanism to its vertical position,
gently rotate it counterclockwise, back to its horizontal position.
8. If you installed the transporter from the side, support the transporter
from underneath, then remove the binder clip on the VAX belt. Allow
the transporter to move to its resting position.
