2 Setting up the VLS1000i hardware The hardware installation consists of these steps: • Preparing for the installation • Unpacking • Racking (optional) • Installing cables Preparing for the installation The following sections describe preparing for the installation. Tools for installation The following tools are required for the installation. • Phillips screwdriver • Box cutting knife Taking ESD precautions To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device. To prevent electrostatic damage: • Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers. • Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations. • Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers. • Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry. • Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly. Selecting a location When selecting a location, follow these guidelines: • Select a location that is flat, sturdy, and level. • Select a location close to a network Ethernet port and an AC outlet. The AC power cord is the appliancet's main AC disconnect device and must be easily accessible at all times. • Ensure minimum clearance of 15.4 cm (6 inches) at the back of the appliance, 30.8 cm (12 inches) at the front of the appliance, and 5.08 cm (2 inches) on either side of the appliance. • Avoid placing the autoloader on the floor or other carpeted surfaces. • The appliance makes some noise when operating, so choose a location where the noise will not be cause a disturbance. • Avoid areas near frequently used doors and walkways, stacks of supplies that collect dust, printers, and smoke-filled rooms.

To
prevent
damaging
the
system,
be
aware
of
the
precautions
you
need
to
follow
when
setting
up

or
handling
parts.
A
discharge
of
static

from
a
nger
or
other
conductor
may
damage
system
boards
or
other
static-sensitive
devices.
This
type
of
damage
may
reduce
the
life
expectancy
of
the
device.
To
prevent
electrostatic
damage:
Avoid
hand
contact
by
transporting
and
storing
products
in
static-safe
containers.
Keep
electrostatic-sensitive
parts
in
their
containers
until
they
arrive
at
static-free
workstations.
Place
parts
on
a
grounded
surface
before
removing
them
from
their
containers.
Avoid
touching
pins,
leads,
or
circuitry.
Always
be
properly
grounded
when
touching
a
static-sensitive
component
or
assembly.
Selecting
a
location
When
selecting
a
location,
follow
these
guidelines:
Select
a
location
that
is
at,
sturdy,
and
level.
Select
a
location
close
to
a
network
Ethernet
port
and
an
AC
outlet.
The
AC

and
must
be
easily
accessible
at
all
times.
Ensure
minimum
clearance
of
15.4
cm
(6
inches)
at
the
back
of
the
appliance,
30.8
cm
(12
inches)
at
the
front
of
the
appliance,
and
5.08
cm
(2
inches)
on
either
side
of
the
appliance.
Avoid
placing
the
autoloader
on
the
oor
or
other
carpeted
surfaces.
The
appliance
makes
some
noise
when
operating,
so
choose
a
location
where
the
noise
will
not
be
cause
a
disturbance.
Avoid
areas
near
frequently
used
doors
and
walkways,
stacks
of
supplies
that
collect
dust,
printers,
and
