Unpacking the Autoloader

Before you begin, clear a desk or table so that you can unpack the autoloader. You also need to select an open 2U computer rack location or choose a desk
top location near the server that will host the autoloader.

Unpack and inspect the autoloader for shipping damage by doing the following:

1.

Clear a table or desk so that you have room to unpack the autoloader.

2.

Inspect the shipping box for damage. If you notice any damage, report it to the shipping company immediately.

3.

Open the shipping box and remove the accessories package. Set the accessories package aside for now.

4.

Lift the autoloader and padding out of the box and place it on the work surface, top facing up. Do not set the autoloader on either end or sides.

5.

Carefully remove the shipping padding from the left and right sides of the autoloader. Then remove the bag from the autoloader. Save the packing
materials in case you need to move or ship the autoloader in the future.

Connecting the SCSI and Power Cables

To connect the SCSI and power cables to the autoloader, follow these steps:

from the server and all attached accessories.

2.

Attach one end of the SCSI cable (included in the accessory kit) to one of the connectors on the back panel of the autoloader.

3.

Attach the other end of the SCSI cable to the connector on the SCSI host adapter or to the connector on the previous device on the SCSI bus.
