Operating the Drive
The tape drive will come on when the system is powered on. The tape drive will run its Power-On Self-Test (POST). At the end of the hardware self-test, the Ready
LED should be solid green.
Resetting the Drive
You can reset the drive without powering off the drive and system. This may be necessary if the drive stops responding. To do this, press and hold the eject button on
the front panel of the tape drive for 12 seconds (see number 1 in
existing dump. The drive then reboots to allow communication. If there is a cartridge loaded, the drive will slowly rewind it back to the beginning of tape and reposition
it for use. This may take up to 10 minutes to complete. To eject the cartridge, push the Unload button one more time.
