Dell PowerVault 130T User Manual page 18

Cartridge Access Port
The CAP permits adding or removing cartridge tapes from the library without interrupting
normal library operations.
Hand/Camera Assembly
The hand/camera assembly picks cartridge tapes and moves them to and from tape drives,
storage cells, and the CAP . The camera reads coded information on the storage cells and
cartridge tapes for position location and library audits.
Electronics Module
The electronics module (EM) incorporates the controller card (CYC card), two fan
assemblies, and a power supply. SCSI commands and microcode are downloaded and
stored on the CYC card.
The EM contains 2 MB of dynamic RAM (DRAM), 128 KB of nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM),
and 512 KB of flash programmable ROM (PROM). The CYC card contains a 32-bit
microprocessor coordinating motion control, the vision system, SCSI commands, and
operator panel commands and display information.
Storage Cells
The PowerVault 130T contains storage cells for 28 to 30 CompacTape IV tape cartridges.
CompacTape III and IIIXT are also supported, although they have a lesser capacity. With
four drives installed, 28 cartridges is the maximum.
NOTE: If Auto Clean is enabled, column 0, cell 7 , cannot be used for a data cartridge,
because a cleaning cartridge must be placed in that cell.
