Preparing for the Installation

0

Some components within the autoloader contain static-sensitive parts. To avoid damaging 

these parts while performing installation procedures, always observe the following 

precautions:
• Ensure that the work area is free from conditions that could cause electrostatic 

discharge (ESD). 

• Discharge static electricity from your body by touching a known grounded surface, 

such as your computer's metal chassis.

• Keep the autoloader turned off during all installation procedures.
• Use an antistatic wrist strap.
• Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for 

installation. Look for the ESD sticker to identify static sensitive parts.

• Avoid touching connectors and other components.

The autoloader can be rack mounted by attaching it directly to stationary cabinet rails.
Take the following general safety steps before beginning the rack-mount installation.

Lower the cabinet feet.

Extend the cabinet anti-tip device, if available.

Ensure that the cabinet and all rack mounted equipment have a reliable ground 

connection.

Verify that the total current of all rack mounted components (including the 

autoloader) will not exceed the current rating of the power distribution unit or outlet 

receptacles.

Secure the help of at least one other person. At least two people are required to safely 

install the autoloader into a rack cabinet.

Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative 

humidity and are more likely to produce static electricity.

An anti-tip device may be extendable legs or similar equipment used to 

stabilize the cabinet. This anti-tip equipment is to help avoid over-

balancing the cabinet when installing or removing equipment.

Failure to take these safety steps may result in personal injury or 

equipment damage.
