Installing the AIT library / Connecting the Power Cable
6
Installing the AIT library
The library weighs about 18 kg (39.7 lb.) and has the
following dimensions. Before installing the library,
make sure that the surface on which you are placing it is
large and strong enough.
With the rack mounting kit, ACY-RK2 (sold separately),
the AIT library can be installed on EIA standard,
universal pitch 19-inch rack. Contact your dealer for
information about the rack mounting kit.
Note
Install the AIT library on a horizontal surface near an
AC power outlet. Also, leave a gap of about 150mm (5.9
in.) behind the rear of the unit to allow air to circulate.
Connecting the Power
Cable
1 Confirm that the power switch on the rear of the
AIT library is turned off (ais pressed).
2 Connect one end of the power cable to the power
supply connector and the other end to the electric
outlet.

Connecting to the Host Computer 7
Connecting to the Host
Computer
Connect the AIT library and the host computer with a
SCSI cable. This section explains general connecting
steps. Connect the library with the appropriate SCSI
cable, depending on the AIT drive.
• When the library is equipped with an AIT-3 or AIT-4
drive, use a commercially available Ultra 160 cable.
• When the library is equipped with an AIT-1 or AIT-2
drive, use a commercially available Wide Ultra LVD
SCSI cable that conforms to SCSI-3.
The library side uses the 68-pin half pitch connector.
When connecting other SCSI devices together with the
AIT Library, see “Connecting SCSI Peripheral Devices”
in “Installation” chapter 2, in the “Operating
Instructions” (PDF).
Caution
• Do not connect the AIT library to the High Voltage
Differential (HVD) SCSI bus. If connected, the library
or other devices on the SCSI bus may be damaged.
• When connecting a SCSI cable, turn off all the
connecting devices, including the host computer.
• When connecting the AIT library as the last device on
a SCSI bus, be sure to attach the provided terminator.
Also, if the host computer is equipped with a single-
end SCSI host adapter, use a terminator that supports
single-end. When the wrong terminator is used, the
device may be damaged.
• When using LVD (Low Voltage Differential) SCSI,
make the length of the SCSI cable that connects the
host computer and the device at the end of the SCSI
bus shorter than 12 m (39 ft. 4.4 in.). When connecting
the AIT library to a single-ended SCSI host adapter,
use a SCSI cable shorter than 1.5 m or 59 in.
• SCSI cables cannot be branched.
Notes
• For information about the SCSI bus, refer to “SCSI
Specifications” in the “Appendix” chapter, in the
“Operating Instructions” (PDF).
• Prepare the necessary SCSI cables. For information
about SCSI cable specifications, refer to “SCSI Cable
and Terminator Specifications” in the “Appendix”
chapter, in the “Operating Instructions” (PDF).
1 Confirm that the power to the host computer and
AIT library are turned off.
2 Attach the SCSI cable and terminator as shown in
the figure below.
The manner in which it is attached varies with the
number of internal drives.
When there is only one standard internal
AIT drive (AIT drive is not added):
1Use a SCSI cable (sold at stores) to connect the
AIT library to the host computer.
2Connect the SCSI cable to connector 1.
3Attach the provided terminator to connector 2.
Nothing is connected to connector 3 and
connector 4.
When an AIT drive is added (there are two
installed AIT drives):
1Use a SCSI cable (sold at stores) to connect the
AIT library to the host computer.
2Connect the SCSI cable to connector 1.
3Connect the SCSI cable supplied with the
supplementary AIT drive kit from connector 3 to
connector 4.
4Attach the provided terminator to connector 4.

Turning the Power On/
Off
Turn the Power On
Turn on the AIT library power, then turn on the host
computer power.
1 Press the power switch on the rear of the library.
The library can only be turned on by pressing the
power switch on the rear.
The initialization operations appear on the LCD
display.
If the date and time screen appears at the end of the
initialization process, you can change the library’s
date and time settings.
Caution
By default, the library is set to read bar codes. If you
use cartridges without bar code labels with this
setting, initialization after turning on the library
becomes unusually long. For details about how to
set the library to read bar codes, see “Setting the
Bar Code” in “Basic Usage” in chapter 3, in the
“Operating Instructions” (PDF).
2 If you want to change the date and time, press the
[ENTER] button. If you do not want to make
changes, press the [CANCEL] button.
• For details about the date and time settings, refer
to “Setting the Date and Time” in “Installation”
chapter 2, in the “Operating Instructions” (PDF).
• You can change settings so that the date and time
screen does not appear after startup. For details,
see “Disabling the Display of the Date and Time
Screen” in “Basic Usage” in chapter 3, in the
“Operating Instructions” (PDF).
Notes
• The date and time cannot be updated when the
AIT library is off. For this reason we recommend
that you set the date and time each time that you
turn on the library.
• If the library is left idle for five minutes, the status
display appears automatically.
Once the library is started, the following status
screen appears.
3 Wait at least 15 seconds after pressing the library’s
power switch before turning on the host computer.
When you are done, go to “Initial Setup” in
“Installation” chapter 2, in the “Operating
Instructions” (PDF).
Notes
• If the host computer is turned on too soon after turning
on the library, the host computer may not detect the
library’s SCSI IDs. Wait at least 15 seconds after
turning on the library before turning on the host
computer.
• If the library does not work as above, refer to
“Troubleshooting” in the “Appendix” chapter, in the
“Operating Instructions” (PDF).
