Overloading the circuit
When you connect the autoloader to the electrical supply circuit, do not
overload the circuit.
Reliable grounding
Make sure that the electrical circuit providing power to your autoloader has a
reliable ground. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit, such as the use of power strips.
Unpacking the autoloader
Important
If the room in which you are working
differs from the temperature in which the
autoloader was shipped or stored by
30°F (15°C) or more, let the autoloader
acclimate to the surrounding
environment for at least 12 hours before
opening the shipping carton.
Before you begin, clear a desk or table so that you can unpack the autoloader.
You also need to select an open 2U computer rack location near the server that
will host the autoloader.
Important
If your autoloader was ordered as a
one-magazine autoloader, be sure to
remove the plastic shipping insert from
the magazine bay before connecting or
operating your autoloader. Insert either a
magazine or a magazine blank into the
bay. The autoloader does not function
without both magazine bays equipped
with either a magazine or a magazine
blank.
To unpack and inspect the autoloader:
1 Clear a table or desk so that you have room to unpack the autoloader.
2 Inspect the shipping box for damage. If you notice any damage, report it
to the shipping company immediately.
3 Open the shipping box and remove the accessories package. Set the
accessories package aside for now.
4 Lift the autoloader and padding out of the box and place it on the work
surface, top facing up. Do not set the autoloader on the front, back, or
either side.
5 Carefully remove the shipping padding from the left and right sides of the
autoloader. Then remove the autoloader from the bag. Save the packing
materials in case you need to move or ship the autoloader in the future.
6 Remove the shipping filler block and replace it with the right magazine
or magazine blank.
