______________________ Note _______________________
There are no switches for setting a mechanical SCSI ID for the
tape drives. The SCSI IDs default to five. The MiniLibrary sets
the electronic SCSI ID very quickly, before any device can probe
the MiniLibrary, so the lack of a mechanical SCSI ID does not
cause any problems on the SCSI bus.
To set the SCSI ID, follow these steps:
1. From the Default Screen, press the Enter button to enter the Menu
Mode, displaying the Main Menu.
____________________ Note _____________________
When you enter the Menu Mode, the Ready light goes out,
an indication that the module is off line, and all medium
changer commands from the host return a SCSI "not ready"
status until you exit the Menu Mode and the Ready light
comes on again.
2. Press the down arrow button until the Configure Menu item is selected,
then press the Enter button to display the Configure submenu.
____________________ Note _____________________
The control panel up and down arrows have an auto-repeat
feature. When you press either button for more than half a
second, the control panel behaves as if you were pressing the
button about four times per second. The effect stops when
you release the button.
3. Press the down arrow button until the Set SCSI item is selected and
press the Enter button.
4. Select the tape drive (DLT0 Bus ID: or DLT1 Bus ID:) or library robotics
(LIB Bus ID:) whose SCSI bus ID you want to change. The default
SCSI IDs are as follows:
• Lib Bus ID: 0
• DLT0 Bus ID: 4
• DLT1 Bus ID: 5
Use the up or down arrow button to select the item for which you need
to change the SCSI ID. Press the Enter button.
