High Density Expansion
Module Barcode Scanner
Installation Instructions

Abstract

This document describes how to install a barcode
scanner in a High Density Expansion Module (HDEM)
in an ESL G3 Tape Library.

NOTE: The bolts connecting the HDEM to
the adjacent module must be attached so
that the bolts on the rear of the HDEM are
placed with the bolt heads inside the HDEM.
Installing the bolts incorrectly (bolt heads
outside the HDEM) will cause the nut and
bolt to interfere with the vertical movement
of the HDEM barcode scanner. If the bolts
are installed in the incorrect fashion (bolt
heads outside the HDEM), remove them one
at a time and retighten. Removing and
replacing one bolt at time prevents the
modules from needing to be disconnected or
re-leveled.
