Removing the Cleaning Cartridge

Exercising the Library Robotics

1. Examine the Default screen on the control panel to make sure the
cleaning cartridge has been unloaded from the drive. If not, then unload
it using the Load/Unload menu, as described in Chapter 4, "Operation."
2. Remove the magazine from the Library. See "Inserting and Removing
Cartridges" in Chapter 4.
3. Remove the cleaning cartridge from the magazine.
4. Insert any desired data cartridge into the slot vacated by the cleaning
cartridge.
5. Insert the magazine into the Library.
6. Close the magazine door.
To fully exercise the library robotics, use the Demo option as follows:
1. From the Maintenance menu, select the Demo submenu.
2. Select Demo 1.
The library robotics begin to move cartridges randomly from slot to slot,
displaying the number of passes on the screen.
If all slots in the magazine are full, Demo 1 loads a cartridge into DLT0 and
leaves it there. If you press the π button while Demo 1 is running, the Library
loads a cartridge into DLT0, unless DLT0 is full. If you press the π button
again, the cartridge is unloaded from DLT0 and returned to the magazine.
Demo 1 runs continuously as long as the Library has power.
To pause Demo 1, press and hold the Escape button until a flashing message
displays that the test is paused.
To stop Demo 1, press the Escape button a second time to return to the Main
menu.
