Control Panel Navigation; Using Library Controls; Opening A Screen; Exiting A Screen - Sun Microsystems Enterprise Tape Library 7/3500 Field Service Manual

Control Panel Navigation

The control panel uses a touch-screen for convenient navigation. To activate a command or
open a screen, simply touch the appropriate "button" on the screen. You can also move
backward and forward through screens opened previously by pressing the Back and Forward
buttons.
The Home button returns the control panel to the initial screen.

Using Library Controls

Library controls are located in the vertical bar on the left side of the control panel. They are
always available, even when using the main display area to open operator- or service-related
screens.

Opening a Screen

To open one of the four main screens (Overview, Tapes, Operator, or Service), press the
appropriate tab near the top of the control panel. That screen is displayed in the main area.
Note – If you press either the Operator or Service tabs, a dialog box is displayed requesting
a password. You must enter a password to display these screens.
Once the desired screen is displayed, you can view information or press buttons to execute
commands and open other screens.

Exiting a Screen

You can exit any screen by pressing the Back or Home buttons.
If a command is executing, a dialog box is displayed in the main area with an ABORT
button. Pressing this button cancels the command and stops the ongoing operation. (Pressing
the Back or Home button is still required to exit the screen associated with the dialog box.)
