3-6 Compaq StorageWorks SSL2000 Series Library Reference Guide

Removing a PTM

To remove a PTM:
1. Access the rear panels of the Library units in the storage cabinet and
disconnect each one from its AC power source.
2. Unplug the motor control cable from its connector on the PTM motor
housing assembly (see Figure 3-5).
3. If the master unit (top) is to be removed for service, disconnect the
motor cable and plug it into the unit directly below it (slave 0).
Reconfigure slave 0 to be the master unit and slave 1 to be slave 0, slave
2 to be slave 1, and so forth (see Figure 3-5).
NOTE: There are software ramifications in reconfiguring a different Library and should
only be done if necessary.
4. Disconnect the RJ45 cable from the unit to be removed or serviced and
then plug it into the next unit so all units remain in series.
