B Library Identification

Each ACS, LSM, and CAP is assigned a unique identification number during LIBGEN. Use this number in ELS commands and utilities to identify a specific ACSid, LSMid, or CAPid.

ACSid

Each ACS is identified by an ACSid (acs-id), a two digit decimal identifier from 00-99

The first ACS acquires an identifier of 00, the second ACS acquires and identifier of 01, and so forth until all ACSs are identified.

LSMid

Each LSM is identified by an LSMid (lsm-id), consisting of an ACSid and LSM number separated by a colon The LSMid differentiates each LSM from every other LSM in a library.

The format is AA:LL, where:

  • AA is the ACSid, a two digit decimal identifier from 00-99.

  • LL is the LSM number, a two digit decimal identifier from 00-99.

CAPid

Each library CAP is identified by a CAPid (cap-id), consisting of an LSMid and CAP number separated by a colon. The format is AA:LL:CC, where:

  • AA:LL is the LSMid.

  • CC is the CAP number, a two digit decimal identifier from 00-11.

CAP Numbers

The following are valid CAP numbers:

  • 00

    • For 4410 and 9310 LSMs, standard 21-cell CAP or the right-hand 40-cell enhanced CAP

Panels, Rows and Columns

Certain ELS commands and utilities allow you to specify panels, rows, and columns within a library.

Panels

Each panel­list element is a one or two digit decimal number, specific to the LSM type:

  • LSM Models 4410 and 9310 PowderHorn

    • 0-11 for outer wall panels

    • 12-19 for inner wall panels

  • LSM Model 9360 WolfCreek

    • 0-2 for Model 9360­050

    • 0-3 for Model 9360­075

    • 0-4 for Model 9360­100

  • LSM Model 9740 TimberWolf

    • 0-2 (panel 3 is included if the optional cells are present).

  • LSM Model SL3000 Library

    • Access Expansion Module (AEM optional) - panels 0-1 and 22-23 are located on both ends of the library and in this release serve only as library end caps.

    • Base Drive Module (BDM required) - panels 12-13

    • Drive Expansion Module (DEM optional) - panels 10-11 are located left of the BDM.

    • Cartridge Expansion Module (CEM optional) - panels 2-9 are located left of the BDM or optional DEM.

    • Cartridge Expansion Module (CEM optional) - panels 14-21 are located right of the BDM.

    • Parking Expansion Module (PEM) - Dual Robots only - panel numbers equate to the same panel numbers of the CEM it replaces, depending on its location right or left of the BDM.

    Note:

    The SL3000 library has static panels numbers starting with the left-most back panel (panel 0) and ending with the right-most front panel (panel 23) on a fully-configured library. The panel numbering starts with the BDM, the only required module (panels 12 and 13), and works outward to the left and to the right.
