is amber and blinking at regular intervals, indicating that the library has enabled
the drive data bus, but no light is detected.

Scalar i6000 Installation Guide
State and Explanation
• Solid on — loop initialization protocol (LIP) has occurred.
• Blinks at irregular intervals — host command/data activity is occurring.
• Solid on — the library has enabled the drive data bus; it can detect light
through a fiber optic cable.
• Solid off — the drive brick is varied off or the drive cannot detect light
through a fiber optic cable (equivalent to no fibre cable plugged in). If
the drive brick is varied off, the blue status LED will be solid on.
