Spare Chassis Replacement Instructions
This document describes how to remove and replace a chassis
in a NEO XL-Series library or expansion module from
Overland Storage.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
equipment, always remove any power cords while working with
the unit.
WARNUNG:
Um das Risiko eines elektrischen Schlags oder
Schäden am Gerät zu vermeiden, ziehen Sie stets den
Netzstecker, bevor Sie an der Einheit arbeiten.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique
ou endommagement de l'équipement, retirez toujours les
cordons électriques en travaillant avec l'appareil.
CAUTION:
While working with the unit, observe standard
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions to prevent damage
to micro-circuitry or static-sensitive devices.

Prepare the Unit

CAUTION:
In the NEOxl library, do not replace both the library controller and the chassis at the same time as the serial numbers
for both cannot be updated when both are replaced simultaneously. If you receive a new library controller and chassis for the
same unit, first install the new library controller in the old chassis as directed in the Spare Library Controller Replacement
Instructions, then follow these instructions to replace the chassis.
The following items are included in the new chassis and should not be removed from the old chassis:
• Center bezel with OCP
• Magazine access doors
• Magazine banks (including mailslot)
• Robotic assembly
• Spooling mechanism
