NSTALLATION

After the autoloader powers on, the LCD displays the Home screen. As shown

in the example below, the first line of the Home screen displays the product

name and the second line shows status for the autoloader and tape drive.

If the autoloader powered on as described, continue with configuration in

Chapter 3

.

If the autoloader did not power on as described, check the following:



Is the power switch on?



Is the power cord inserted correctly?



Is the SCSI bus terminated?



Are the devices on the SCSI bus attached to the autoloader all LVD?



Is the SCSI cable firmly connected to the autoloader and host computer or

other devices on the bus?



Is the host computer system turned on?



Is there an error message displayed on the autoloader’s LCD? (see

Appendix C

for descriptions of LCD error messages.)



For additional tips, see

Chapter 8, “Troubleshooting

Important

Do not power on the host computer system immediately after

powering on the autoloader. After you press the autoloader’s

power switch, there is a short delay before the tape drive is
