The following diagram shows the element index assignments for the library.

Figure 25. V15 Element Indexes

Element Addresses

Your application software may use element addresses to identify elements in the library. The difference
between an element index and an element address is that an index is a fixed number set in the library’s
firmware, whereas an address can be changed by your application software (using the SCSI command,
MODE SELECT).

The library’s default element addresses correspond to the element indexes.

Using the Demo Menu

The Demo option causes the robot to randomly move cartridges from slot to slot, including the fixed
cartridge slots.

To run the demo option:

1. If necessary, disable security.

2. Change the robot mode to LCD.

3. Make sure there is at least one cartridge present and one empty slot before you begin the

test.

4. From the operator panel keypad, press [MENU] to display the menus. Press the down arrow

key until “Demo Menu” displays, as shown below.
