Note:

The operating environment of the library must not conflict with the media storage

requirements. The library can operate at elevated temperatures for an extended period.
However, the temperature might shorten the useful life of media that is stored in the
library. If media is stored in the library for more than 10 hours, the storage temperature
requirements for media are met. It is assumed that media stored in the library is
approximately 2 degrees above ambient temperature when the library is powered ON.

Product environment

The TL1000 Tape Autoloader is designed to operate in a general business
environment.

The library meets the acoustical requirements for general business area category
2D. Category 2D states that the library can be installed a minimum of 4 m (13 ft.)
from a permanent work station.

To allow for service access, install the library a minimum of 0.9 m (3 ft.) from all
obstacles.

The library is a precision computer peripheral device. To ensure maximum
longevity of your library, locate the library away from dust, dirt, and airborne
particulates, as follows:

v

Keep the library away from high-traffic areas, especially if the floor is carpeted.
Carpeting harbors dust and walking on the carpet can cause the carpet fibers
and the dust to become airborne.
