Front Panel and Media Locks

A security feature is available to avoid accidental interruption of Library operation by entering
the Menu mode or removing cartridges while the host is accessing the Library. The front panel
and the media can be electronically locked. When the front panel is locked, you can only enter
the Menu mode after entering a 4-digit code. That is, when the Default screen appears, pressing
the Enter Enter button does not invoke the Menu mode until you enter the code. The front panel
Enter Enter
cannot be unlocked without using the Security submenu to unlock it.
The media can also be locked by software running on the host, using the SCSI
ALLOW/PREVENT MEDIUM REMOVAL command. The Library provides no control panel
override for this command. Usually, exiting the host software restores media access. In the event
of host failure, you can restore media access by cycling the Library power.
Procedures for locking and unlocking front panels and media are described later in this chapter.
