Summary of Front Panel Indicators

Use the following tables to determine the drive’s operating conditions:

431887-02 23.08.00 15:41 Side 3

Indicator Activity During Power-on Selftest

Powering up the system power, the drive performs the power-on selftest (POST). The sequence of

events are:

Result: POST completes in about 15 seconds and the drive responds normally to all commands.

However, it might take longer for the media to become ready. After a bus reset, the tape drive re-

sponds within a bus selection time-out period.

STAGE WHAT HAPPENS

1. The indicators on the right side turn on sequentially, from top to bottom. All indicators stay on for

a few seconds.

2. The indicators on the left side turn on simultaneously for approximately three seconds, and then

turn off.

3. The green Operate Handle indicator, the yellow Use Cleaning Tape indicator, and the orange Write

Protected indicator turn off.

The yellow Tape in Use indicator blinks while the tape drive initializes.

4. After initialization, the drive is in one of the following four states:

DRIVE STATE INDICATOR DISPLAYS AND ACTIONS

1. No cartridge is loaded 1. The yellow Tape In Use indicator is off

2. The green Operate Handle indicator is on

3. The handle is unlatched

4. The drive beeps

You can now raise the handle and insert a cartridge.

2. A cartridge is The drive loads the cartridge. When the yellow Tape In Use indicator stops flashing and

loaded and the stays on, the indicator turns on next to the label of the tape’s native density. For

handle is down example, if the actual tape density is 2.6 GB, then the indicator turns on next to the 2.6

label. You can now select a density. The drive is ready for use.

3. A cartridge is The yellow Tape In Use indicator flashes and turns off. The green Operate Handle

loaded, but the indicator flashes. The handle should then be lowered and the cartridge loads.

recommended)

4. The drive detects All four right-side or left-side indicators blink repeatedly. You may try to unload the

an error condition tape and reinitialize the drive by pressing the unload button. The indicators stop

blinking and the drive tries to reinitialize.

Loading a Cartridge

To load a cartridge into the drive (Figure 2):

1. When the green indicator is on steadily, pull the cartridge insert/release handle open

2. Insert the cartridge

3. Push the cartridge into the drive

4. Push the handle closed

NOTE:

To prevent handle failure, assist the handle to the closed position. Do not flip it.

The green indicator turns off and the yellow indicator blinks to show the tape is loading. When the

tape is at the beginning-of-tape (BOT) marker, the yellow indicator turns on steadily. The tape is now

ready for use.

Unloading a Cartridge

CAUTION!

Always remove the cartridge from the drive before turning off host system power. Failure to remove

a cartridge can result in cartridge and drive damage.

When you remove the cartridge from the drive, return the cartridge to its plastic case to prolong the

cartridge life.

To unload a cartridge from the drive (Figure 3):

1. Press the Unload button (or issue the appropriate system software command). The yellow Tape in

Use indicator blinks as the tape rewinds.

2. When the green indicator turns on (the beeper also sounds), pull the cartridge insert/release hand-

le open to eject the cartridge.

CAUTION!

Immediate extraction of the tape cartridge can lead to tape leader failure. Delay tape cartridge ex-

traction by one to two seconds to avoid this problem.

3. Remove the cartridge.

4. Push the handle closed.

Cartridge Write-Protect Switch

• The drive may be prevented from writing/recording on the media by enabling the write protect

switch (Figure 4).

Figure 4 Tape Cartridge Write-Protect Switch

Cleaning the Drive

• If the yellow Use Cleaning Tape indicator turns on, unload the data cartridge and load the cleaning

cartridge. The cleaning cartridge automatically cleans the read/write head and unloads when clea-

ning is complete. Be sure to remove the cleaning cartridge when cleaning is complete. Cleaning

cartridges may be purchased from Tandberg Data, ordering no. P/N 43 18 78. The cleaning car-

tridge provides approx. 20 drive cleanings before replacement is necessary.

Operating Hints

• Never operate the cartridge insert/release handle if the green Operate Handle indicator is not on

steadily or blinking, or drive power is off.

• Make sure the cartridge leader is in the correct position; open the cartridge door to inspect the

leader (Figure 5).

• Insert the cartridge into the drive with a slow, steady motion.

• Do not drop or bang the cartridge. This can displace the tape leader, making the cartridge unusa-

ble and possibly damaging the drive.

• Keep tape cartridges out of direct sunlight and away from heaters and other heat sources.

• Place an identification label only in the slide-in slot on the front of the cartridge.

• Do not adhere labels to a cartridge anywhere except in the slide-in slot.

NOTE:

The density may only be selected/overridden from BOT (Beginning Of Tape). On tape which already contains

pre-recorded data, the pre-recorded density will automatically be selected by the drive.
