Notes:

1. If the drive completes the power-on self-test (POST) within the 2.0 second Power On LED Test time,

the POST indicator sequence is eliminated

2. A solid amber LED indicates the drive needs cleaning. The drive will continue to function, but needs

cleaning as soon as possible. A power cycle does not turn off this indicator.

3. The Fault LED will flash to indicate an unrecoverable error. An unrecoverable error is an error

condition that results in the drive not being able to function unless initiator, operator, or service

intervention is applied. An unrecoverable drive failure is usually the result of a hardware error

condition. One of the following actions will be needed to clear the flashing Fault LED:

v Hard SCSI reset

v Cartridge eject

v Power cycle

v Retry microcode download

An unrecoverable cartridge (media) failure is usually the result of a defective cartridge, media, or

cartridge state and will require the drive to eject the cartridge (if possible) to clear the flashing LED.

4. The firmware download failed and the drive is not functional. The drive boot code is in control and

the microcode download should be retried. The drive can be identified using the Inquiry command

and is bootable while in this state.

5. The Fault LED will be on solid to indicate an over-temperature condition.
