Diagnostic Mode Event Codes
Press, hold, and release the unload button after six to nine seconds to start the diagnostic mode. This
displays the most recent event code. The unload button then becomes a scroll button for additional
event codes. Press and release the unload button for the next most recent event code. You can display
up to five total events using this method. Refer to
Table 3-6
for details about the meaning of the
various patterns.
After you display the final available event code, the next button press causes all LEDs to flash
indicating that the next eight hex characters displayed are the detailed error code of the most recent
event. The first character is either a hex E (error) or a B (bug check). You can look up the remaining
seven characters in the error/bug check definition tables. When you display the last (eighth) detailed
error code digit, the next button press returns the tape drive to normal operation. All indications are a
four bit hex value.
During any time in this procedure, the tape drive returns to normal operation if you perform no scroll
action within 15 seconds.
