7. Connect the male to male 9-pin cartridge elevator cable from the primary
master to the lower serial port connection on the cartridge elevator.
8. Connect the other 9-pin cartridge elevator cable from the secondary master
(module 2 in this example) to the upper serial port connection on the cartridge
elevator.
The 9-pin cartridge elevator cable to the secondary master module enables the
firmware (by operator initialization) to initiate a fail-over from the primary
master to the secondary master and designate it as the secondary master.
9. Connect the power cord to the router.
10. Supply power to the router. Power up the router before the modules.
11. Turn on the library modules as shown in Figure 86.
a. Connect the power cord to the power supply’s receptacle.
b. Toggle the power switch located on the power supply to ON.
c. Repeat steps a and b for all modules connected to the cartridge elevator.
d. Press the slave module touch screens to apply power to the libraries.
e. Press the master touch screen to apply power to all of the libraries.
Verifying firmware level of the slave modules
To ensure reliable multi-module operation, the slave modules must be using the
same firmware level as the master module. The firmware of the slave modules can
be updated using the firmware image of the master.
Verify the firmware level of the slave modules as follows:
1. After the POST completes, press Menu on the first slave module.
2. Press Library Info in the View System Data area.
3. The firmware revision is deployed on the Miscellaneous Library Info screen.
4. Repeat step 1 through step 3 for the other slave modules.
After the flash operation completes, the slave modules will reboot.
