 Glossary 147

(PLI)The communication path between the operator panel and the library controller 

(the HBC card). This consists of Ethernet with TCP/IP and XML.

PTPSee pass-thru port. 

putAn activity in which a robot places a cartridge into a slot or drive. 

PWAPrinted wiring assembly.

R

RaceTrack™ architectureThe design and implementation of the SL8500 library’s multiple high-performance 

robotics.

railThat portion of the upper robot track assembly that provides power and 

communication to the robot.

rail assemblyThe mechanism on which the robot travels between cartridge arrays and tape 

drives.

reach mechanismA component of the robot that moves the gripper to get or put a cartridge at a 

designated location.

RealTime Growth™

capabilityThe capability to add pass-thru ports dynamically while the library is operating.

remote operator consoleThe customer’s operator panel that interfaces with the PLI. See also security 

software layer.

reserved slotsCartridge slots that are used only for cleaning and diagnostic cartridges and as 

drop-off slots.

robotA mechanism that moves horizontally along a track in the Product Name to 

transport cartridges to and from other locations in the library. Also called a 

HandBot or TallBot.

moduleThe module containing the curved rails and pass-through port (PTP) assemblies. 

See also StreamLine™ RaceTrack™.

S

security auditThe process of reading and storing in Product Name library memory the VOLIDs 

and locations of all cartridges in the library. See also host audit.

(SSL)The communication path between the PLI and the remote operator console.

service areaAn area between the access doors of the customer interface module and the 

service safety door in which an inoperable robot is stored for service and other 

mechanisms can be repaired or replaced.
