Abstract:
    An automatic data storage library has a plurality of storage frame, one or more data storage drivers and busbars. An automaton accessing device is provided with a driver system for moving the automatic accessing device, accessing device communication interfaces, and a busbar relay configured for being engaged with the busbars and being detached from the busbars. An automaton controller is configured for controlling the driver system to move the automatic accessing device, controlling a selector and the busbar relay to be engaged with the busbars when the automaton accessing device is quiescent. An electric power storage system is configured for receiving electric power by the busbar relay when the busbar relay is engaged with the busbars, storing the received electric power, and at least transmitting the stored electric power to the automaton accessing device when the the busbar relay is detached from the busbars.
