Powering on the Library
To power on the library:
1. Make sure the library’s door is closed and latched.
2. Power on the host computer system.
NOTE
If your host system requires that attached peripheral devices are
powered on before the host, power on the library before you power on
the host.
3. Push the power switch on the back of the library to the on position (the I is pressed).
Wait while the library performs its power-on sequence. During this time, the following activities occur:
•
The cooling fans begin to operate.
•
The LCD illuminates and displays power-on messages.
•
The tape drive and the library perform a power-on self-test.
Verifying the Hardware Installation
After the library powers on, the LCD displays the Status Screen. As shown in the example below, the first
line of the Status Screen displays the product name and the second line shows status for the drive (ready,
no tape loaded).
If the library powered on as described above, continue with library configuration in the next chapter.
If the library did not power on as described above, check the following:
•
Is the power switch on?
•
Is the power cord inserted correctly?
•
Is the library door closed and locked?
•
Is the SCSI bus terminated?
•
Is the SCSI cable connected to the library and host computer?
•
Is the host computer system turned on?
•
Is there an error code displayed on the library LCD? (See Appendix C.)
If you cannot resolve the problem yourself, contact Plasmon (see Contacting Plasmon at the back of this
manual).
