Introduction 3

Introduction 0

If PX500 Series (PX502, PX506, and PX510) libraries are in a multiple library

stack, the library firmware must be uploaded individually to each cabinet. If

you attempt to upload library firmware to only the Master library in the

stack, the slave libraries may not receive the firmware update properly.

Uploading Library Firmware 0

Uploading library firmware to a multiple library stack consists of the

following steps:

•Changing the Library Stack Role

•Uploading Library Firmware

•Returning the Library Stack Role

Changing the Library

Stack Role 0

The library must be in Stand alone mode prior to receiving the library

firmware update.

To change the library stack role:

1From the Operator Control Panel (OCP), press Setup from the Home

screen.

The OCP displays the Setup screen (see figure 1):
