CE Select Level menu
Table 75 on page 116
shows the CE Select menu items. This menu displays when the device loads an
FMR tape (cartridge). The device reads all the EC levels, and displays them on this menu. The invalid EC
levels are displayed in a lighter font. The message lines display the EC level that runs in the device. The
ECs are displayed in the same order as they appear on tape. The CE chooses which EC level to load into
the device.
To activate the drive microcode after you load it, you must complete a power-on reset or a CE reset.
Operational Note: If you insert the FMR cartridge, and the EC level of the microcode is not on the
cartridge, the microcode is copied automatically from the drive to the cartridge.
