AEM-8 Control Panel (continued)
The following control panel menu selections may be required for normal operation and are the same
regardless of the HP drive being emulated:
Set Drive Type - The Set Drive Type menu allows the end-user to select the specific HP drive
model to be emulated. Selecting a new drive type reconfigures the AEM-8's disk parameters and
volume size, to match the selected HP drive. The current AEM-8 drive type is displayed on the
AEM-8's control panel during normal operation. Setting the drive type is usually only required once,
at installation time.
To change the drive type, press the UP or DOWN button to display:
Set Drive Type
...then press ENTER. The control panel will display:
Drive Type ####
...where #### is the HP Model number currently being emulated. Pressing the UP or DOWN
button changes the ####, cycling through the supported HP drive models. Press the ENTER
button once the desired drive type is displayed. The activity indictor will become active (green),
indicating that the AEM-8 is busy storing the new model number to non-volatile memory, changing
AEM-8 parameters, and loading a disk image to memory. Once the control panel's activity indictor
turns off, the AEM-8 is ready for host access.
Set Address - The Set Address Menu is used to specify the HP-IB device address of the AEM-8.
The default address is 0, but using the Set Address menu, any address from 0 to 7 can be selected.
To check or change the address, press the UP or DOWN button to display:
Set Address
...then press ENTER. The control panel will display:
Address = #
...where # is the current address. Pressing the UP or DOWN button changes the address displayed.
Press the ENTER button once the desired address is displayed. The Activity indictor will become
active (green), indicating that the unit is busy storing the new address to non-volatile memory.
