Open the 5U Library Control Module’s I/E station door and access

door.

Lift the 5U Library Control Module and place it in the desired

location.

If stacking the 5U Library Control Module on top of another module,

secure the two modules together by tightening the two thumbscrews

at the base of the front of the module and the two thumbscrews

located at the base of the back of the module. Then lower the

module’s guide pin (located at the base of the front of the module) by

turning it and pushing it down.

Tighten all thumbscrews located at the base of the front and back of

the modules.

If not already installed, install the library control blade (LCB) in the

5U Library Control Module. See

Preparing to Use the
Multi-Module Library

12

Prepare the library for use as follows:

1

Unpark the robot assembly.

a

Gently raise the robot assembly so that it no longer rests on the

parking tab.

b

With your free hand, move the parking tab in a clockwise

direction until it stops in the “unparked” position. When in the

correct position, the parking tab is removed completely from the

interior of the module and will not accidentally swing into the

path of the robot.

Caution:

Support the robot assembly by holding onto the broad

metal X-axis plate. Lifting the robot by the thin metal

rod will bend the rod. Lifting the robot by the black

plastic picker body can damage the robot.
