Resetting a Drive
From the Web User Interface: Service Library → Reset Drives → Reset
From the Operator Panel:
Tools → Service → Drives → Drive Tests →
Reset → Select Module(s) → Select Drive(s)
Some hardware or firmware failures may require a drive be reset for recovery from
the failure.
Drives can be reset individually, by enclosure (module), by logical library (Web
User Interface only), or by entire library.
Shutting Down/Restarting the Library
Shut down the library for servicing. Restart the library after servicing and for
preparing it for use.
Shutting Down the Library
Servicing some components requires only that you take the library offline, while
servicing other components requires that you power OFF the entire library. For
details, see “Required Library State” on page 8-2. When library power is switched
OFF, the Picker assembly slowly falls to rest at the bottom of the library.
Shutting down a library shuts down the library's operating system and firmware.
When performing a shutdown, the library finishes all active commands received
from the host application and does not process any new commands. It takes all
logical libraries offline and lowers the robot to the “shipping” position on the floor
of the library. Always perform a shutdown before removing power from the
library.
Important: To completely remove all power before servicing or in an emergency,
push the front power button, toggle each power supply switch to the
OFF (O) position, and disconnect all power cords from their electrical
source.

library. If a
Progress Screen is open, wait until the operation completes.
