Shuttle Signal/Power Cable
Remove & Replace Instructions
IMPORTANT: Overland Storage requires that all NEO
Series parts be removed and replaced by an Overland
Storage authorized service provider. Improper installation may
result in damage which voids existing warranties.
This document describes how to remove and replace the
Shuttle Signal/Power Cable assembly in a NEO 8000
Library. This kit also contains mounting hardware
necessary to install this assembly.
CAUTION:
Due to the critical importance of this part, it is
absolutely imperative that these instructions be followed
exactly.
If you have any questions or concerns, contact Overland
Technical Support:
• 1-877-654-3429 (toll-free U.S. & Canada)
• +44 (0) 118-9898050 (Europe)
• +1 (858) 571-5555 Option 5 (International)
WARNING: The GUI touch screen does not completely
shut off NEO SERIES system power. To reduce the risk
of electric shock or damage, remove both power cords.
CAUTION:
Do not remove any of the gold-colored Kapton
tape from the cable or cable assembly. It properly
positions the cable during library operation.
Unpacking the Spare
NOTE: Do NOT cut the plastic holding the shuttle cable in
place; the same packaging is used to return the old cable.

• One panhead 4-20x1/2 spooler screw

A #1 or #2 Phillips screwdriver is also needed (depending
on the NEO version). A tube of Loctite 222 (or equivalent
product) is also strongly recommended.

or static-sensitive devices. To help prevent electrostatic
damage, observe the following precautions:
• Transport and store items in static-safe containers.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers.
