The application does not recognize the tape drive
Possible reason
The application does not support the tape
drive.
Some applications require drivers to be
loaded.
The drive does not work
Possible reason
If the drive does not power up (all LEDs
are off), the power cable may not be
connected to the drive properly.
If the self-test fails (see "LEDs during self-
test" on page 29), there may be a
hardware or firmware failure.

Recommended action
Check that the drive is installed properly. Refer to
the software vendor's World Wide Web site and
load any service packs as necessary.
Check that the correct SCSI and tape drive drivers
are installed. Consult the backup application's
installation notes for details.
Recommended action
The power on/off switch incorporates a green
LED. If this is not on, check the power cable
connection and replace the cable if necessary.
You can use the power cable from your monitor
or another device to check that the connection is
working. If the power supply is present and all
LEDs remain off, call for assistance.
If there is a cartridge in the drive, remove it. Reset
or power down the drive and power it up again.
If the self-test still fails, call for assistance.
