Meaning
The drive has no power or is powered off.
The drive is powered on and in an idle state.
The drive is reading from the tape, writing to the
tape, rewinding the tape, locating data on the
tape, loading the tape, or unloading the tape.
If the drive contains a cartridge during the
power-on cycle, the drive completes POST and
slowly rewinds the tape. (The process may take
up to ten minutes.) The LED stops blinking and
becomes solid when the drive completes the
recovery and ejects the cartridge.
The drive is displaying error code(s) from the
error code log on the SCD.
1

exceeded. Reduce drive temperature.

connections.

retry operation.
J
Incorrect media. Insert correct media
type.
F
Incorrect firmware update tape used.
Replace firmware update tape.
