   WHAT ACTION DOES THE FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR NEED TO TAKE?:

To Remove the Failed Base Module KLM Card:

1. Power off the library via the Web GUI and use the option enabled to prepare the robot for removal so that the robot ends up being in the parked position. If the Web GUI is not available please see the How to Park the Robot Manually procedure at the bottom of this document.

2. Reposition the robot lock to the locked position (loosen the thumbscrew, remove the mechanism, rotate the mechanism 180 degrees, insert the mechanism, and tighten the thumbscrew).

3. Disconnect all cables from the tape drives and library.

4. Remove the drive/drives from the base module.

5. Remove the drive filler plate/plates from the base module.

Note: Make sure that the magazine location cable is kept out of the path of the drive tray so that the cable won't be damaged when the tape drive/drives are reinstalled.

7. Install the robot.

8. Install power supply/supplies.

9. Install power supply filler plate/plates.

10. Install drive/drives.

11. Install drive filler plate/plates.

12. Connect, Align, dress, and secure the library and drive cables in the hook and loop straps (Ethernet, FC/SAS, USB).

14. Power on the library from the power button on the front of the library.

How to Park the Robot Manually:

1. Remove the top tape drive from the base module (see “Drive Tray” on page 26).

2. Locate the bullwheel gear above the top drive slot.

3. Place your finger in an indent on the body of the bullwheel gear.

4. Turn the gear clockwise to raise the robot.

Note – Assume that the 12 o’clock position is toward the front control panel.
