Safety Features
The following subsections describe the safety features that are incorporated into the 
library. 
Cards and Power Supply
The RLC card, SCSI (MPW/RLW) or Fibre Channel (MPU2) interface card, and the 
power supply are housed inside protective modules to prevent you from coming into 
contact with hazardous voltages and sensitive electronics.
Robotics
The software parks the robot by retracting it into the robotics unit module before the 
front door can be opened to prevent the robot from being damaged. 
When the front door is opened, power is removed from the robot.
Front Door
The front door must be opened with a key to ensure that the data is secure. If the door 
is not fully closed, a sensor relays the condition to the software and the robot remains 
disabled.
