In Figure 1-3, the number in parentheses equals the total cartridge count. The other
number is the storage cell number in one of the three columns. The storage cell layout as a
whole is called the "array," and the array targets are used for robotic calibration during
initialization. The shaded area (Column1, Cells 0 through 4) is the location of the removable
cartridge magazine.
NOTE: Some host software might number the drive slots from 1 to 4 instead of 0 to 3.

Operator Panel

The library operator panel includes a display for viewing library and tape drive status. The
operator panel also includes five function buttons and three LEDs. The function buttons
allow access to all of the menus, status displays, machine diagnostics, and error
information available for the library.

PowerVault 130T Safety Features

The PowerVault 130T features a safety interlock that shuts off power to the robot if the
front door is opened, preventing personal injury and/or damage to the library. Do not
attempt to override the safety interlock switch.

Controlling Software

Controlling (host) software is the interface between the host operating system requesting
tape read, write, and move operations and the library components. The software
determines where the cartridge is located by tracking the volume serial number (VOLSER)
and cell location during audits. The host software then allocates a tape drive to receive the
cartridge for read/write operations.

Power Switch

The power switch for the PowerVault 130T is located on the upper right rear of the unit, as
shown in Figure 1-4.
