Description
SL8500 PTP Cable MisRouting

Field reports and internal audits have confirmed a potential problem associated with the PTP Switch Motor Cable not being routed properly in manufacturing.

Steps to Follow
SL8500 PTP Cable Mis-Routing
Issue:
Field reports and internal audits have confirmed a potential problem associated with the PTP Switch Motor Cable not being routed properly in manufacturing.
The miss-routed cable harness is under the mechanism deck and can short against a sharp edge in the metal chassis of the SL8500 PTP bay. The shorted out PTP cable harness can cause PTP initialization errors.

Recommendation:

Recommend the PTP assembly be pulled out of the SL8500 frame and the PTP bay inside the library be inspected per the attachments in MPSS tech tip @ http://mpss/TAPE/SL8500/MPSS1059.html; re-route and secured the associated cable harness if necessary as illustrated in the attached.

- It should not be necessary to inspect PTP?s already installed and in production, the short would typically occur soon after installation and testing.

Final Corrective action:

Corrective action was implemented 8/2006 in manufacturing and internal audits were completed.
