Returning the robotic assembly to the base module
If you have powered off the library and the robotic assembly did not return to its park position in
the base module behind the OCP:
1. Power on the library by pressing the power button on the base module just below the OCP.
2. From the RMI, return the robotic assembly to its park position from the Maintenance > Move
Robotic to Base Module screen.
3. Power off the library from the front panel. Depress the power button for 5 seconds and then
release it. If the library is idle, you can release the button when the Ready LED begins flashing.
If the library does not perform a soft shutdown, depress and hold the power button for 10
seconds.
If the robotic assembly is still not in the base module, use one of the following procedures:
• “The robotic assembly is stopped in an expansion module that is near the base module or is
stopped directly between two modules” (page 147)
• “The robotic assembly is stopped in an expansion module that is not near the base module
or it cannot move vertically” (page 148)
The robotic assembly is stopped in an expansion module that is near the base module
or is stopped directly between two modules
1. Remove the front bezel from the base module, the expansion module containing the robotic
assembly, and modules in between as needed; see “Removing the bezel” (page 131).
2. Insert a small flat head screwdriver into the screwdriver relief on the right rear bearing block
of the robotic assembly.
3. Turn the screwdriver to manually operate the robotic assembly gear train and move the robotic
assembly into the base module.
If the robotic assembly will not move vertically or if moving it into the base module with the
screwdriver is not feasible, follow the procedure in “The robotic assembly is stopped in an
expansion module that is not near the base module or it cannot move vertically” (page 148).
4. Lock the robotic assembly; standing at the front of the module, move the blue lever to the left,
then away from you, then to the right.
5. Reinstall the bezels previously removed; see “Installing the bezel” (page 132).
6. Remove the robotic assembly and spooling mechanism; see “Preparing to remove the robotic
assembly and spooling mechanism from the base module” (page 125).
