AUTOLOADER LTO3 – User Reference Manual Rev. 1.01
TANDBERG DATA
Page 3 2 of 79
The 4 LEDs (1-4) are updated during power up and reset sequences. Upon power up or software
reset, the autoloader will illuminate all LEDs as soon as power on self-test (POST) allows. This will
help the user to verify if all LEDs are functional.
When mechanical initialization starts, all LEDs will be extinguished and the READY/ACTIVITY LED (1)
will flash at a reasonable rate of approximately 1-second per cycle, 50% duty cycle.
When the mechanical initialization is complete, the READY/ACTIVITY LED (1) will stop flashing and
be constantly illuminated.
If an autoloader failure occurs, the READY/ACTIVITY LED (1) will be turned off and the error LED (4)
will be illuminated. The operation panel will also display an appropriate error code to help identify the
failure.
