Powering On or IPLing the LSM
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the DLT drive, make sure that each drive is
empty and each DLT handle is up. On DLT4000 model drives, you can
see whether the handle is down. On DLT7000 model drives, look for
the white hub. If the hub is up, the handle is down. Figure 3–1 shows
the handle positions.
If the handle is down and the Operate Handle indicator is on, push the
shuttle all the way back, pause, then release. The handle will rise. If
the indicator is not on, contact your customer engineer for
assistance.
To power on the LSM, press the power switch (in the bottom of the rear cover of
the LSM) to the ON position.
To IPL the LSM, press the IPL softkey on the LSM operator panel.
