Servicing the Neo Series 2000

Introduction

This chapter provides subassembly/module-level removal and replacement procedures for the Neo
Series™ 2000 Library Module. After completing all necessary removal and replacement
procedures, boot up the unit and run (if applicable) the appropriate Diagnostics software to verify
that all components operate properly.
To service the library, you may need the following:
•
Flat-blade screwdriver
•
Phillips screwdriver
•
Wire cutters (for removing cable ties)
•
.050 Hex Key

Electrostatic Discharge Information

A discharge of static electricity can damage static-sensitive devices or micro-circuitry. Proper
packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. To prevent
electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
•
Transport products in static-safe containers such as conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.
•
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free
stations.
•
Cover the library with approved static-dissipating material. Provide a wrist strap
connected to the work surface and properly grounded tools and equipment.
•
Keep the work area free of non conductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly
aids and foam packing.
•
Make sure you are always properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly.
•
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
•
Use conductive field service tools.

Preparation Procedures

System power in the library does not completely shut off using the Graphical User Interface (GUI)
touch screen. You must turn off library power using the On/Off switch located at the rear of the
power supply and then disconnect the AC power cord from the power supply to completely remove
all power from the library.
