The Operator Panel operates in two basic modes:
User Interaction mode - Mode that is employed when a user is pushing keys on the Operator Panel. User Interaction mode continues until 3 minutes after a user
stops pushing keys, or the requested accessor action stops, whichever is longer.
System Driven mode - Normal mode of operation where the Operator Panel displays status in response to commands issued from the drive's internal interface.
Note: Any operational conflict between commands that are received over the host interface or the Web User Interface and those commands that are entered by way of the
Operator Panel are avoided with a reservation mechanism on a first-come, first-served basis. Operator Panel commands are canceled by an Operator Panel logout or
timeout.
