7.9.2 Style A Chassis Storage Array Replacement

This procedure assumes that the Storage Array was removed in Section 7.9.1.
1.
If the RLS is not rack-mounted, carefully turn it on its left side (as seen from the
front) so that the Storage Array mounting screws located on the bottom of the li-
brary can be accessed.
2.
While grasping the front and rear of the Storage Array, guide the rear of the ar-
ray into the chassis. Orient the array such that the connector is facing the drive
bay or inside of the chassis.
3.
Maneuver the rear of the Storage Array into the left rear corner of the chassis
and then align its threaded mounting holes with the holes in the bottom of the
chassis.
4.
Using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver, replace the three or five (model dependent)
mounting flat-head screws that were removed earlier as shown in Figure 7-14.
5.
Inspect the Sensor Slave Assembly to be sure the LED at its edge is perpendicu-
lar to the plane of the board. If it is not perpendicular, the Sensor Slave Assem-
bly should be replaced.
6.
Align the Sensor Slave Assembly to its mounting holes on the chassis bottom
and re-install the three flat-head screws with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver. See
Figure 7-39.
7.
If the RLS is not rack-mounted, carefully turn it back to its upright position.
8.
Reconnect the cable to the right side of the Sensor Slave Assembly as shown in
Figure 7-38.
In the next step a small mirror and flashlight may be helpful to see the ribbon cable con-
nection.
9.
Reach into the back, left corner of the drive bay and reconnect the ribbon cable
that was detached from the connector on the Storage Array. The connector's key-
ing bump must be pointed down or against the chassis. The connector on the
Storage Array nearly touches the chassis bottom and is centered in the opening.
Press firmly on the back of the connector to assure it's fully inserted into the
Storage Array. See Figure 7-11.
10.
Once the Storage Array cable is connected, give the cable a light tug to confirm
it's firmly attached.
