Chapter 5. Operating the Library
65
Barcode Chksum The library supports Code 39 bar code labels, with or without a
checksum digit. Configure the library for the type of bar codes you are using:
• If you are using bar codes with a checksum character, touch the + symbol to enable
Barcode Chksum.
• If you are using bar codes with no checksum digit, ensure that Barcode Chksum is
disabled.
• Touch Save Parms > Yes to save changes and rescan the library’s inventory.
Autoread Barcodes This option forces the library to automatically resynchronize the
media inventory by reading media bar codes after every bulk load or unload media
operation. If this option is disabled, the library only resynchronizes (by reading bar
code information) when prompted by the host software.
• Touch the + symbol to enable Autoread Barcodes, or the - symbol to disable
Autoread Barcodes.
• Touch Save Parms > Yes to save changes and rescan the library’s inventory.
Barcodes Screen
If a bar code scanner is installed, the BC button is visible on the move tapes screen.
• If a bar code scanner is installed but not enabled, the BC button is available, but
tapes are not automatically scanned.
• If a bar code scanner is not installed, the ER button is shown in place of the BC
button. The ER button allows access to the first ECC screen (see ECC Screens on
page 83).
From the main screen, select Move Tapes > BC to display the bar code screen (shown in
Figure 5-3).
