motor-driven drive belt for gripper extension, and a bar code scanner card and
camera (enclosed in a case under the hand components).
The camera reads the volume serial numbers (VOLSERs) from the cartridge
labels during an audit and as you enter cartridges through the CAP. During an
audit, the library matches each VOLSER with a specific cell location. These
locations are stored in memory on the MPC/MPCL card. Because the library
always stores a cartridge in the same location, it does not use the camera during
normal robotic operations.
During the library's initialization, the hand checks its extension in the space
below the calibration label (at the bottom of the drive column).
Note: Cartridges left in drives will not be audited. However, volume
