Library main power switch

NOTE:

The following step applies only when the library is powered on for the first time or when a

new interface controller is installed. This step is necessary to put the interface controller

into managed mode.

3.

If this is the first time the library has been powered on after delivery, or if a new interface controller

was installed, configure the interface controller so that it is recognized by the Interface Manager

card. Do one of the following:
• If your library has an e2400-FC 2Gb interface controller, wait approximately two minutes,

and turn off the main power switch. Wait several seconds and then turn on the power

switch again.

• If your library has an e2400-FC 4Gb interface controller, reset the interface controller twice.

To reset the interface controller, insert a paper clip into the reset hole. After resetting the

interface controller, wait three minutes, then reset it again.

NOTE:

A 71e library requires approximately 15 minutes to initialize. All other library models

require up to an hour to initialize and do an inventory. Nothing displays on the OCP for

the first few minutes of this process.
