Environmental specifications
(1) All operating specifications include a data cartridge. These measurements
assume that the autoloader is installed in accordance with the installation
instructions.
(2) The autoloader is in its original packaging.
(3) The autoloader has been unpacked but is still in its protective antistatic bag.
The packaging is designed to protect the autoloader from the condensation
caused by extreme temperature variations (15° C or more). When the auto-
loader is moved from a cold storage environment to a warm operating envi-
ronment, it must acclimate in its packaging for at least 12 hours before
opening to prevent serious condensation damage from occurring.
(4) The autoloader has not been unpacked. The transportation period does not
exceed 72 hours.
(5) The data cartridges must be allowed to stabilize in the specified ambient tem-
perature and humidity for 24 hours before use.
