Running the Autoloader System Test

Caution

Running the system test for extended periods of time will reduce

the life of your autoloader. To maximize product life, use only

when necessary.

The System Test option cycles the autoloader through the process of loading,

calibrating, and unloading all cartridges in the carousel. Running a System

Test verifies the operational soundness of the autoloader and tape drive. The

System Test continues indefinitely until you press the [Cancel] button. All

regular backup or restore operations are suspended while a System Test is in

progress.
To run a System Test:
1. From the Home Screen or main menu, press the [+] or [-] button until

Diagnostic appears on the top line of the LCD screen.

2. Press

the

[Enter] button to select. System Test will now be displayed.

3. Press

the

[Enter] button to begin the test.

The Test Count displays the number of load-calibrate-unload cycles that

have been completed during the test.

4. Press the [Cancel] button to end the test.
