Storage Cells

The LSM is configured by panel, column, row, and cell, so that the LSM
management software can locate a cartridge. The LSM contains storage cells for
224 to 588 cartridges, excluding the CAP cells. The number of cells is
determined by the number of drives installed and whether the LSM has the
standard left front door or the expansion door. The expansion door provides
additional storage space for 168 cartridges. Arrays can be installed above the
drives if fewer than 10 drives are installed.
Cartridges are stored in cell arrays that hold 14 cartridges. The cell arrays are
stacked in columns and the columns are arranged in a circle around the robot
assembly. Each column can hold 42 cartridges.

The array targets are used for robotic calibration during IPL.
The drive and CAP locations are not used to store cartridges.
If the LSM loses power while the hand contains a cartridge, the hand
will place the cartridge into the empty/dropoff cell.
