Placement of Modules
• Control Module (CM) location is always the first module on the left,
except when Dual Robots are installed. When Dual Robots are
installed, the CM is the second module from the left.
•Expansion Modules:
• Drive Ready Expansion Module (DREM) are always installed to
the right of the CM. If there are multiple DREMs to be installed,
the order of the DREMS is a 72 slot I/E station is first, then a 24
slot I/E station and finally a DREM without an I/E station.
• High-Density Expansion Modules (HDEM) are placed after the
CM and DREMs. If there are multiple HDEMs to be installed, the
order of the HDEMS is a 72 slot I/E station is first, then a 24 slot
I/E station and finally a HDEM without an I/E station.
• Storage Expansion Module (SEM) are placed after the CM,
DREMs and HDEMs. If there are multiple SEMs to be installed,
the order of the SEMS is a 72 slot I/E station is first, then a 24
slot I/E station and finally a SEM without an I/E station.
• Modules that are added to existing systems are added to the
right. One exception is if an HDEM or DREM3 is added to a Dual
Robot library, in this case the HDEM or DREM3 is inserted to the
left of the Right Parking Module.
•Parking Module:
• Left Parking Module (LPM) is only used when Dual Robots are
installed and is always located on the far left of the library.
Note, the LPM is not ordered separately, it is shipped with the
Dual Robot.
• Right Parking Module (RPM) is only used when Dual Robots are
installed and is always located on the far right of the library. The
RPM is a converted SEM or DREM.
• An HDEM or DREM3 cannot function as a parking module.
Import/Export (I/E) Station Support and Placement
• The Control Module always ships with a 24 slot I/E station and there
are no other options.
• Optional 24-slot I/E Station can be installed in any DREM, SEM,
HDEM or RPM.
