[. . . ] Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for installation. Look for the ESD sticker to identify static sensitive parts. Environmental Conditions 0 The installation site must have the following environmental conditions: · · · Humidity: 20%-80% non-condensing Temperature: 10°C-35°C (50°F-95°F) Altitude: -500 to 10, 000 feet (-152 to 3048 meters) · Avoid touching connectors and other components. NOTE: Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative humidity and are more likely to produce static electricity. These environmental conditions apply when the PX502 tape library is in operation. NOTE: For additional specifications, refer to the Quantum PX500 Series User's Guide (PN 8181290) Unpacking the PX502 Tape Library 0 This section explains how to unpack the PX502 tape library and move it to its final installation location. [. . . ] NOTE: If the depth of the rack is less than 27 in, do not install the back mounting brackets or clamps. Refer to figure 14 for drive bay numbering (see the Quantum PX500 Series Tape Drive Installation Instructions PN 81-81301 for information). Figure 14 Installing the Tape Drives PHILLIPS screws M5 x 10 Allen screws Left-hand back bracket shown. Back of Library Tape drive 2 Tape drive 1 5 To install the tape drives into the library: a Remove the tape drive cover plates (if necessary, some libraries ship with one tape drive installed) by loosening the captive screws securing the plate to the library chassis (see figure 13). c Tighten the tape drive thumbscrews using a flat blade screwdriver. d Repeat these steps to install another tape drive in a different location, if desired. The library chassis is installed in the rack. Cabling the Library 1 Connect the SCSI cables and jumpers as shown in the following figures: · · Figure 15 SCSI System Controller Board Figure 16 Surrogate SCSI System Controller Board 0 10 PX502 Tape Library Quick Start Guide · Figure 17 Native Fibre Channel System Controller Board NOTE: Quantum ships sufficient SCSI cables and terminators with the libraries to set up two-drives per SCSI bus. One tape drive per SCSI bus may be necessary for optimum performance. NOTE: SCSI cable lengths should not exceed: · 39. 37 feet (12 meters) between the host and the library for single drive per bus installations.

NOTE: When operating in surrogate mode, the SCSI host connection must be made to tape drive 1. 11 PX502 Tape Library Quick Start Guide Figure 18 Turning on the Library Figure 19 Removing the Top Cover (Optional Step) OCP Power button The power up sequence can take several minutes. The first message displaying will be "Are the internal packaging materials removed?" Continue with Removing the Remaining Packing Materials Removing the Remaining Packing Materials 0 Now that you have installed the library chassis and powered on the system, you MUST remove the remaining packing materials from the library chassis before the library is operational. 1 Put on an antistatic wrist strap and clip it to the library chassis. CAUTION: Take standard ESD precautions when performing this procedure. 3 When the library powers on for the first time, the OCP asks you: "Are the packaging materials removed?" (YES or NO). CAUTION: Pressing Yes when the internal packaging restraints are in place will damage the library robotics. 2 IF there is space above the library to remove the top cover, remove the twelve PHILLIPS screws securing the top cover and FlexLink cover to gain further access to the internal packaging restraints (see figure 19). If there is no space above the PX502 library to remove the top cover, continue with Step 3. 4 Press NO to continue. The OCP displays "Doors opened, magazines released, pull magazines out before power shutoff. " The library waits approximately 30 seconds for you to open the doors, remove both magazines from the library, and remove the foam blocks. NOTE: If you are unable to remove the magazines before the library shuts down. Turn on the library power and repeat the steps above. 12 PX502 Tape Library Quick Start Guide 5 After the library has powered down, remove the foam restraints by completing the following steps (see figure 20): a Detach the tie band holding the two sides of the metal restraints together and remove it from the library. b Remove the metal restraints from the library. c Lift the left foam restraint slightly up and remove it from the library. d Slide the right foam restraint to the right until you are clear of the robotics motor and remove the restraint from the library. CAUTION: CAUTION: Avoid touching the printed circuit board. When removing the foam restraints, ensure that the robotics umbilical cable is lying down in the correct position inside the platform and not across the robotics track. Figure 20 Removing the Foam Restraints Tie band Metal restraint Foam restraints Robotics umbilical cable Metal restraint NOTE: Save the robotics restraints and re-usable tie wrap for later shipping or relocation of the library. [. . . ] The PX502 tape library is initially configured and ready for use. 15 PX502 Tape Library Quick Start Guide Figure 25 Removing the FlexLink Cover Remove only the top FlexLink cover on the bottom library in the stack Screws NOTE: Install only the bottom alignment hardware on the top library in the stack and the top alignment hardware on the bottom library in the stack. Figure 26 Installing the Alignment Hardware Top alignment hardware p To Screws FlexLink cover p To FlexLink cover tt Bo om Screws Remove only the bottom FlexLink cover on the top library in the stack 2 The alignment hardware installed on the top and bottom of the libraries in a multiple stack allow the FlexLink bays to align correctly when installed in a rack. Install the following alignment hardware (see figure 26): a Install the top alignment hardware with two Allen head screws. [. . . ]
