After your DLT7 Autoloader completes its initialization sequence, it then initializes the drive.
While the drive is initializing,
dRV INIT
and the Activity Bars appear on the LCD panel and
the Activity LED blinks quickly.
When the entire initialization sequence is complete,
LdR REAdY
appears on the LCD panel.
Your DLT7 Autoloader is now ready to use.
4.2.6 Setting the SCSI IDs
Your DLT7 Autoloader uses two SCSI IDs: one for the drive and one for the autoloader
robotics. Depending on your host server’s or workstation’s requirements, you may need to
change the SCSI ID of either or both of your DLT7 Autoloader devices before you can use
your autoloader. Be sure to select SCSI IDs that no other device on the SCSI bus is
currently using.
Note:
The default SCSI IDs for your DLT7 Autoloader are:
•
Autoloader robotics:
SCSI ID 1
•
Drive:
SCSI ID 3
To change the SCSI ID for either or both the Autoloader robotics or drive, follow these steps:
1. Press
the
Mode
button on the operator’s panel repeatedly until
Set SCSI (Mode 6)
appears on the first line of the LCD panel.
2. Press
the
Select

LdR SCSI
appears on the LCD
panel.
3. Press
the
Select
button to select the SCSI ID for the autoloader robotics.
LdR Id x
–
where
x
indicates the current SCSI ID of the autoloader robotics – appears on the LCD
panel.
4. Press
the
Next
button to select the next higher SCSI ID. Press the
Previous
button to
select the next lower SCSI ID. Repeat this process until the desired SCSI ID appears on
the LCD panel.
5. Press
the
Select
button to set the new SCSI ID for the autoloader robotics.
dRV Id x
– where
x
indicates the current SCSI ID of the autoloader robotics – appears on
the LCD panel.
6. Press
the
Next
button to select the next higher SCSI ID. Press the
Previous
button to
select the next lower SCSI ID. Repeat this process until the desired SCSI ID appears on
the LCD panel.
