■Operating in Manual Mode

When an LSM is offline, you might be:

• Opening the LSM front doors

•Moving the robot

• Locating a cartridge in the storage cells

• Mounting and dismounting a cartridge

• Removing a cartridge from the hand

• Returning the LSM to online status

The following information describes how to perform these activities.

Opening the LSM Front Doors

You must open the right front door, then the left front door to perform manual

operations. See Figure3-3 on page 3-11.

1. Make sure that all jobs have ended and place the LSM offline.

2. Open the LSM right front door by using the door key to unlock the top and

bottom latches. Turn the key counterclockwise.

CAUTION:

Components are Sensitive to Static Electricity: Even a small

electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage an electrical component

inside the LSM. A damaged component may not fail immediately, but

over time, it will become worse, possibly causing an “intermittent”

problem. Make sure you touch gray, unpainted metal or wear an

antistatic wrist strap before reaching inside the LSM.

After you have opened the door to the LSM:

• With your finger, touch a gray, unpainted metal surface, such as the LSM

frame, just inside the front door of the unit.

• Keep your body movement to a minimum as you touch the drives or

library components.

3. Open the LSM left front door. For the standard door, pull gently from the

top right corner. For the expansion door, pull from the recessed area on the

right side.
