Figure 5 Pressing the
Power Switch
When the autoloader powers up, or resets, it goes through several
internally controlled processes that allow it to get initialized and
running. While those processes are happening, the Operator’s Panel
displays appropriate information to keep you informed about the
events taking place. After initialization, the autoloader displays the
mount status for the current drive. It also indicates that the sequential
mode is ON by displaying the characters SEQ.
In addition, the appropriate inventory status characters display. For
more information about inventory status characters, see Inventory
Status Characters on page 29.
4 Start the host computer system.
Note: The power switch lets you turn the power on and off for
the autoloader and the enclosed tape drive. The power
switch is recessed into the front panel to prevent the
autoloader from being accidentally turned off during
operation.
