Required Tools and Equipment
• Ethernet cable
Environmental Requirements
The installation site must have the following environmental conditions:
• Humidity 20% – 80% non-condensing
• Temperature: 50°F – 95°F (10°C – 35°C)
• Altitude: –500 to 10,000 feet (–152 to 3048 meters)
These environmental conditions apply when the Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 libraries are in
operation. For additional specifications, refer to the
Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80
User’s Guide
.
In addition, install the library in a location that is as free from dust as possible. Dust can
damage or degrade performance of library components and media.
Taking ESD Precautions
Some components within the Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 libraries contain static-sensitive
parts. To avoid damaging these parts while performing installation procedures, always
observe the following precautions:
• Use an antistatic wrist strap. If you do not have one, touch the outside of the library
on the
sheet metal before touching any components to discharge static from your
body.
• Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for
in
stallation. Look for the ESD sticker to identify static sensitive parts.
• Avoid touching connectors and other components.
Note: Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative
humidity and are more likely to produce static electricity.
