NOTE: For MSL Series libraries, the library controller board must be installed in the right-hand slot

of the card cage area (upper card cage area for the four-drive models). The remaining slots on the

library do not support the connections that are required for the library controller board to operate

correctly.

NOTE: The mode toggle switch is not active.

Factory-Defined Accessory PCI Slots

MSL Series tape libraries contain one or two rear-access card cages, and one or two 32-bit,

33-MHz Compact PCI backplanes (see Figure 8). These backplanes contain the plug-in connectors

for a library controller board, and up to five optional HP-defined PCI add-in cards.

CAUTION: Use of non-HP qualified PCI option cards can damage your MSL Series library and will

void product warranty. Follow all operating instructions shipped with the optional card upgrade kit.
