Indicator Activity During Normal Operation: Fault/Clean/Media
LEDs
The Fault, Clean, and Media LEDs indicate the status of the tape drive. Note that the LEDs can
indicate more than one of the indicated operating conditions simultaneously; for example:
•
If cleaning is required while a DLT1 (VS80) format data cartridge is loaded, both the Clean and
Media LEDs are on.
•
If an internal write/read diagnostic fails as a result of a permanent write error, both the Fault and
Clean LEDs blink slowly.
Table 4-2
describes the meaning of each front panel indicator.
See
Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting Your Tape Drive,”
for details on error conditions.
Table 4-2.
