Operating the Drive
Turn on the external drive by pushing the power on/off button on the front panel (Figure 12). The tape drive will run its Power-On Self-Test (POST). At the end
of the hardware self-test, the status light 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 10 seconds (Figure 13). The drive forces a dump of vital technical data to drive memory and overwrites the
existing dump. The drive then reboots to allow communication.
