Placing the Drive-Only or Stand-Alone Models
The Model B00 is a drive-only device. Models B01, B02 are stand-alone library models. All drive-only and
stand-alone models may be installed by the customer or service representative. When the service
representative installs these devices, it is a customer billable call. This information is included here to
ensure that you understand the restrictions and recommendations for this device.
The following notices are translated into selected languages. Each notice contains an identifier
(Caution=Cx).
C1
CAUTION The 3570 Model B01 weighs approximately 35 kilograms (77 pounds); it takes three
persons to safely lift this unit.
C3 CAUTION The 3570 Model B02 weighs approximately 40 kilograms (88 pounds); it takes three
persons to safely lift this unit.
Note: This notice is translated into selected languages. See C1 and C3 in the INSP section. The 3570
can be located anywhere that is convenient to the system unit. The only restrictions to the location
of the 3570 are the length of the power cord(s) and the length of the SCSI cable(s).
Attention
This is a precision device that requires careful handling to prevent data loss or permanent damage
to the 3570.
Avoid bumping or dropping the 3570.
Do not place the 3570 in a dusty location.
Do not grasp the operator panel display (see
1
, Figure 51 on page LIBRARY-2) when lifting any
library model from the shipping container.
Note: Some external devices attached to the system unit can be stacked. Do not place more than one
other 3570 on top of the 3570 when stacking external devices.
1. Open the shipping container and inventory the parts listed on the 3570 bills of material.
2. Place the device in the desired position.
3. Install pedestal hardware on the table-top device as follows:
a. On the library, attach the pedestals to the bottom of the unit using the four screws provided,
for operation in the horizontal position. The Models B01 and B02 may only be installed for
horizontal operation.
Note: All stand-alone library models come with a pedestal which must be installed. The
library model front door will not open properly if the pedestals are not installed.
b. For drive-only boxes: If the Model B00 is to be used in a vertical position, attach the pedestal
to the side of the Model B00 with a single screw. Model B00 may be installed for either vertical
or horizontal operation.
4. If this device is a library model, go to “Installation Checkout—Library Models” on page INST-43.
5. If this device is a drive-only model without a cartridge loader feature, go to “Setting the SCSI
Address—Drive-Only Model B00” on page INST-9.
