Locating a Cartridge in the Storage Cells
Figure 3 on page 21 and Figure 4 on page 22 show the locations of the
panels, rows, and columns of the cartridge storage cells in the library. The
decal at the top of each column also provides location information. To remove
a cartridge from a storage cell, slide out the cartridge.
Removing a Cartridge from the Hand
If the library loses power or goes offline, a cartridge might be left in the hand.
You can remove it from the hand and manually mount it into a drive for a
read/write operation.
Caution Possible equipment damage: Follow the procedures described in
Moving the Robot on page 124. Failing to do so could damage
the hand.
Make sure you do not touch any electronic components on the
hand assembly. The components could easily be damaged.
To remove a cartridge from the hand:
1. Rotate the Z-column; move the hand until it is facing the front door.
2. Push on the back of the reach mechanism (as shown in Figure 35 on page
128) until the gripper is extended to its full position.
