Integral Fan Cooling

A single forced-air fan is mounted inside each module to provide optimum cooling for critical
parts, and to prevent the drive and robotics electronics, motors and power supply from
overheating.

Library Robotics

The DLT LibraryXpress System features library robotics that can load any of the cartridges
stored in any magazine in the system into any of the DLT tape drives, moving cartridges
among as many as nine modules within the DLT LibraryXpress System. The robotics design
utilizes Overland Data's Mainframe-Class™ Library Robotics, which is known for
ruggedness and reliability.

Bar Code Reader

The optional bar code reader may be mounted on the cartridge shuttle in each module. It reads
bar code labels attached to each cartridge, and maintains the bar code data in memory as part
of the library System Map. An upgrade kits to add the bar code reader is available for the
Global Control Module, the Base Module and the Capacity Module. See Appendix B -
Accessories/ Spares/FRUs for the part number.

Advanced Design Features

The DLT LibraryXpress System incorporates many significant improvements in tape drive
and library design. One of the most important is the use of highly reliable DLT technology,
with media rated by the media manufacturer at better than 1,000,000 head passes.
