Choose an optimal location for the library.
To avoid damage, the library must be positioned in a stable location. See the System,
Safety, and Regulatory Information Guide for more information on finding an optimal
location for your library.
• Make sure a power source (only of the type marked on the product label) is
available. For power requirements, see the Scalar i500 User’s Guide.
• Route any cables to avoid walking on them or pinching them with items placed
on or against them. Pay particular attention to the cord at the wall receptacle and
the point where the cord exits from the library. For recommended cabling
procedures, see the Scalar i500 User’s Guide.
• Make sure that objects will not fall and liquids will not spill into the library’s
chassis through openings.
Caution:
Save all packaging materials and the orange robot restraint assembly in
case you need to move or ship the library in the future.
Caution:
Be sure to remove the following items:
• The orange robot restraint assembly that secures the robot to the
floor of the library.
• The yellow strip in the I/E station.
Warning:
Without tape drives, tape cartridges, or power supplies, a 5U control
module weighs approximately 58 lbs. A 9U expansion module,
without tape drives, tape cartridges, or power supplies, exceeds 65 lbs.
To avoid serious injury, two people are required to safely lift the
modules into position.
Warning:
The power outlet must be available near the library and must be easily
accessible.
