Operating the library
Library user interfaces
The library provides two user interfaces:
• Operator control panel (OCP)—With the OCP, you can monitor, configure, and control the library from
the front panel.
• Remote management interface (RMI)—With the RMI, you can monitor, configure, and control the
library from a web browser. The RMI hosts a dedicated, protected internet site that displays a
graphical representation of the library.
The MSL3040 RMI
Before using the RMI, you must configure the library network settings and set the initial
administrator RMI password with the OCP.
You can configure the network settings and set the initial
administrator RMI password with the Initial Configuration Wizard.
Use the initial administrator RMI password to log in to the RMI the first time. The library will prompt you to
set an actual RMI password.
The security user password can be set once by the administrator from the
Configuration > User
Accounts
screen.
To start the RMI, open a supported HTML browser and enter the IP address of the library in the browser
address bar.

The MSL3040 OCP
The OCP has a power button, four navigational buttons, an enter button, a back button, an LCD screen,
and five LEDs. With the OCP you can monitor, configure, and operate most library functions from the
library front panel. To navigate the OCP, use the navigational, enter, and back buttons.
To power on the library, press the power button. To power off the library, press the power button for 5
seconds and then release it. When prompted, select the parking position for the robotic assembly.
