Configuring Your Library
a slot contains media with an unreadable barcode label (for example, the label is missing, torn, or marked up), the
scanner cannot identify it, so the library normally reports the slot as empty.
With the Unlabeled Media Detection feature, you can configure the library to detect and report which slots contain
media with unreadable barcodes. Since cartridges with unreadable barcodes will not work for some library functions,
knowing which labels are bad enables you to replace them with good ones as soon as possible.
When you enable Unlabeled Media Detection, the calibration sensor re-scans slots identified as empty in the inventory
to see if a cartridge is physically in the slot. If so, the library reports the cartridge as having an unreadable barcode.
Note:
The library always re-scans "empty" slots in the top and bottom rows of the library, even if you don't
enable the Unlabeled Media Detection feature. This is because occasionally a small or poorly placed label cannot
be read by the barcode scanner in those two rows. The calibration sensor re-scans the bottom row, and the
picker physically checks the top row because the calibration sensor cannot reach it.
"Bottom row" here means the bottommost available row as indicated in the library configuration report.
This feature is disabled by default. When enabled, the following occurs:
•
The re-scan may take up to several minutes to complete.
•
You can configure the library to re-scan only the I/E station slots that were identified as empty, or all the slots in
the library that were identified as empty.
•
The library configuration report indicates media with unreadable barcodes by displaying a red triangle in the corner
of the slot.
•
The library user interface lists No_Label as the barcode for all cartridges with unreadable labels.
•
The library posts a RAS ticket (T143) when an unreadable barcode label is detected. As long as that ticket remains
open, no more T143 tickets will be issued, even if more unreadable barcode labels are found.
•
An unreadable barcode label is re-scanned every time the cartridge moves to a new location to check if it is
readable in the new location.
Details on the system settings include:
Users can configure only the Touch screen audio setting.
•
•
Administrators can configure all the settings on the System Settings screen.
You can configure all of the above settings from the operator panel. The only settings you can configure from the Web client
are user session timeout and unlabeled media detection.
The paths to open the appropriate screens are as follows:
•
From the operator panel, select Tools > System Settings.
From the Web client, select Setup > System Settings.
