8.1.2
Default Element Addresses
Element Addresses are initially assigned by the RLS in sequential order to each type of
location. During address assignments, all locations within a sequence are always
considered present, even if they are not physically present, e.g. a tape drive is not installed.

Table 8-1 Default SCSI Element Addresses for a single RLS
When libraries are connected with the FastPass elevator expansion option their
physical location will be identified with a number in front identifying their order in
the interconnected libraries. When using RLS-85XX models a maximum of four
libraries can be connected.
