Viewing Inventory
Select
Status > Inventory
to view the Inventory Status screen (Figure 5-8). This screen
displays the most current information on the location of cartridges.
The Inventory Status screen provides general information about inventory. To get
detailed information, click on the plus (
+)
button for a magazine. This expands the
display (Figure 5-9) to show the details of the media in that magazine.
Note:
The bar code scanner can only read up to eight characters on each
bar code. If a bar code label has more than eight characters, the
last characters are ignored.
Spectra Logic strongly recommends using bar code labels with
eight characters or less, such as those that come on Spectra Logic
Certified Media.
