7.1.3 Power-Up Display
When the actiLib Autoloader 1U device powers up, or resets, it goes through several internally
controlled processes that allows it to get initialized and running. This processes is called Power-
On-Self-Test (POST). While the POST is happening, the OCP shall have appropriate
information displayed to keep the user informed. When the loader finishes POST, it will display
the Current Drive mount status in the ‘Home Screen’. If the Drive is empty, the following status

Note about the LED’s
All LEDs are updated during Power Up and Reset sequences. Upon power up or software
Reset, the loader will illuminate all LEDs as soon as POST allows. This will help the User to
verify if all LEDs are functional. When initialization starts, all LEDs will be extinguished and the
Ready/Activity LED 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 will stop
flashing and be constantly illuminated. The “Magazine Status” LED’s will also show the
appropriate status (locked, unlocked or removed).
If a loader failure occurs, the Ready/Activity LED will be turned off and the Error LED will be
illuminated. The OCP will also display an appropriate error code to help identify the failure.
The following are additional operational details of LEDs.
