Library Operation
PLUNGE FULL
SPD
Allows the cartridge transport mechanics to run at full speed. This setting should
always be used under normal library operations.
PLUNGE 1/2 SPD Used by service personnel only. Allows the cartridge transport mechanics to run
at half speed.
SENSOR
TRANSLATE
Tests the horizontal path that the cartridge transport mechanism follows when
moving from one stack of tape cartridges to another. Displays ON or OFF. If OFF
displays, the sensor is block. (This display is automatically updated if the sensor
status change.) Requires the use of one tape cartridge.
SENSOR
MAGAZINE
The displays shows M1 1 M2 1 M3 1. Each “1” indicates that the caddy is in
place. If a “0” is displayed, the caddy has not been inserted into the library. (This
display is automatically updated if the sensor status changes.)
SENSOR
STARWARS
The display shows 0 0.
Each “0” indicates one of the paths that the cartridge transport mechanism
follows in front of each stack of tape cartridges. If the path is clean, a 0 displays;
if the path is blocked (because of a cartridge that is not inserted fully into its
storage slot for example), an * will be displayed. (This display is automatically
updated if the sensor status changes.)
VERTICAL
ENCODER
Moves the cartridge transport mechanism down, moves it back up a short
distance, then moves it back down. The last time the transport mechanism is
moved down the number of encoder counts is verified. Returns PASS/FAIL. No
tape cartridges are required.
