Electrostatic Discharge Information

A discharge of static electricity can damage micro-circuitry

or static-sensitive devices. To help prevent Electrostatic

Discharge (ESD), observe standard ESD precautions.

1. If the library is operational:

a. Using the Graphical User Interface (GUI) or the

application software, remove any cartridges from

the drives to prevent damage.

b. Exit the application software and, if necessary, stop

the software services.

c. Use the GUI to remove all the magazines.

IMPORTANT: If the library is non-operational, the

doors can be manually opened by pushing a stiff

wire against the mechanical releases directly behind the

front panel.
