ROUBLESHOOTING
RXT drives have a digital display that consists of a 14-segment single-
character display (SCD) and a status indicator. The SCD is not visible when
the drive is operating inside the library. Instead, the SCD code information
for each RXT drive in a partition can be viewed using the Drive Details
screen
If you think that a drive may be faulty, follow these steps:
1. Display the Drive Details screen for the drive you suspect is having
2. Note the information in the Display Character field on the Drive Details
3. If the drive is in an error state, contact SpectraGuard Technical Support
Interpreting RXT Drive SCD Codes
The following table describes the single-character codes that appear on the
RXT drive's SCD and display in the Display Character field on the Drive
Details screen. Unless there is an error, the SCD will be blank except for a
flashing blue status indicator. If you need assistance, contact SpectraGuard
Technical Support.
