Aligning and Connecting the Module
Aligning the modules ensures that the robotics can move freely
between the modules.
NOTE: The library will not operate unless the alignment
mechanism is in the locked position (except the bottom module).
1.
At the back of the library, using the
alignment lock
lever
, align and lock the new module to the modules to
which it connects.
If you encounter resistance, adjust the upper module so
that the alignment mechanism pin moves into the mating
hole in the lower module.
2.
Verify that, for the
lowest
module in the library, its
alignment mechanism is in the
unlocked position
.
3.
From the front of the library, tighten the
recessed flange
screws
on the new module and the adjacent modules to
secure them all to the rack.
Reinstall Tape Drives
1.
Holding a
tape drive
by the handle and supporting it
from the bottom, position it on the alignment rails in front
of the appropriate bay.
2.
Slowly slide the tape drive into the
drive bay
until it is
flush with the rear of the library.
3.
Finger-tighten the
blue thumbscrews
to secure it.

for any additional tape drives.
