Introduction 3
Introduction 0
The ATL P1000 Series is an automated tape library consisting of up to 4
tape drives and 30 DLT™ cartridges.
This document explains how to unpack the ATL P1000 Series. Once the
library is unpacked and moved to the desired installation location, set
up the library using the instructions in the ATL P1000 Series Library
User’s Guide.
The P1000 library is shipped in either a stand-alone (see figure 1) or
rack-mount configuration (see figure 2). The stand-alone P1000 is set
on casters. The rack-mount P1000 comes with a slide tray assembly for
installation in a rack.
Note: A rack is not provided with the rack-mount P1000; it must be obtained
separately.

Selecting an Installation Location 5
Selecting an Installation Location 2
When selecting an installation site for the ATL P1000 Series, consider
the following requirements:
‡floor space
‡floor clearance
‡floor strength and inclination
‡power and grounding
‡environmental conditions
These requirements are also described in the ATL P1000 Series Library
User’s Guide.

Rack-mount Library
Floor Clearance 4The stand-alone P1000 has a floor clearance of 0.75 in. (1.9 cm). Place
the library on a level, uncarpeted floor free of defects.
Floor Strength and
Inclination 4
The floor at the installation site must be rated at 250 lb/ft2(1221 kg/
m2). This is sufficient to support a fully loaded P1000 on the floor or in
a rack.
The floor at the installation site must be level to within 0.25 in (6.4 mm)
over a 6 ft by 6 ft (1.8 m by 1.8 m) area.
Overhead Clearance 4To remove the P1000 enclosure, there must be a minimum clearance of
24 in. (61 cm) above the library. When combined with the height of the
library (21 in./53 cm), this is a total of 45 in. (114.5 cm) from the floor
(stand-alone library) or bottom of the slide (rack-mount library).
Power and Grounding 4The library auto-ranging power supply accepts single-phase, 90 VAC
to 264 VAC input power at 47 Hz to 63 Hz.

Selecting an Installation Location 7
Power Inlet 4
The power inlet is an IEC-320 connector (see figure 5). For
international applications, replace the power cord with a harmonized
3x1.0mm
2power cord approved by the country where used.

Receptacle
Rack Current Rating Consideration 5
Consider the current rating of the rack before installing more than one
P1000 library. The P1000 library is rated 6A/3A (120V/230V). This
means that no more than two libraries can be installed in a typical
15A/120V rack.
If other equipment is installed in the rack, determine the total current
rating of all the equipment before adding the P1000 library to the rack.
Grounding 5
The P1000 must be connected to a grounded power outlet. If the
library is rack-mounted, the rack must also be grounded.
Temperature 5
The rack temperature should be less than 90qF (32qC).
Environmental
Requirements 5
The installation site (stand-alone library) or the interior of the rack
(rack-mount library) must meet the following environmental
requirements:
‡humidity: 20% to 80%, non-condensing
‡temperature: 59qF to 90qF (15qC to 32qC)
‡altitude: sea level to 10,000 feet (3,033 meters)

8 Unpacking the Library
Unpacking the Library 5
The P1000 unpacking procedure consists of the following steps:
‡receiving the library from the shipper (see “Unloading Space
Requirements” on page 9)
‡uncrating the library (see “Uncrating the Library” on page 10)
‡installing the slide assembly in the rack (rack-mount library only)
(see “Installing the Slide Assembly in the Rack” on page 13)
‡removing the library from the pallet (see “Removing the Library
from the Pallet” on page 22)
‡removing the internal packing materials from the library (see
“Removing the Internal Packing Materials” on page 28)
The following sections detail each of these steps.
Note: Before performing the procedures in the following sections, make sure
the site you have chosen for the installation meets the requirements
listed in “Selecting an Installation Location” on page 5.

Unloading Space Requirements 9
Unloading Space Requirements 5
Before uncrating the library, verify that you have sufficient space. For
the stand-alone unit, allow a minimum of six feet in front of the ramp
side of the pallet (see figure 6).
Note: Unpack the library as close to the installation site as possible.

10 Uncrating the Library
Uncrating the Library 6
To uncrate the P1000 library:
Procedure
1Open the top of the shipping carton by carefully cutting the
packaging tape.
The following items are stacked on top of the P1000:
‡accessories tray
‡ramp (stand-alone library) or slide assembly (rack-mount
library)
2Remove these items from the carton and set them aside.
3Remove all foam supports from inside the carton (see figure 7 on
page 11 and figure 8 on page 12).
