Drive status LED
The Drive Status LED is yellow and indicates the
following conditions:
If the Drive Status light is ON continuously, the
drive is reading or writing the tape (that is, SCSI or
DAT activity is present). If you push the eject button
while the Drive Status LED is ON, you may lose
data.
Note. During a SCSI PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL
command, the Drive Status LED is always ON.
If the drive status light is flashing rapidly, a
hardware fault has occurred. If this occurs
immediately after power-on and you have enabled the
power-on self-test (through a jumper setting), the
power-on self-test may have failed and the drive will
not operate.
