cartridge position is filled with data and sent back to its home position. This mode allows
endless backup operations without user interaction.
– Auto load - When Library mode is Sequential with Auto load mode Enabled, the first available
cartridge (the lowest Column/Tier cartridge position that contains a cartridge) is loaded
automatically if the library powers ON, or resets, with an empty drive. If the library powers ON
with a cartridge already in the drive, sequential mode starts from the home position of that
cartridge, unless the host issues a rewind and unload command to the drive. In which case the
next cartridge in sequence will be loaded into the drive.
To start Sequential mode if Auto load is not Enabled, use the Move Cartridge command to load the
first cartridge into the drive. The sequence starts from the home position of that cartridge.
Cartridges need not to be in contiguous slots.
To stop Sequential mode, use the Move Cartridge command to unload the drive. This command
cancels Sequential mode; the next sequential cartridge is NOT loaded.
To restart Sequential mode, use the Move Cartridge command again to load a cartridge; the loading
sequence resumes from the home position of that cartridge.
v Number of active slots - Select the number of active slots to assign in your library. Selecting the
number of active slots defines the number of storage slots, number of cleaning/inactive slots,
whether the I/O Station is enabled/disabled, and whether auto cleaning is allowed. The first digit
configures the number of active storage positions (4, 6, 8, or 9). The second digit configures Column
5, Tier 1 of the magazine as an I/O Station (0 when disabled, and 1 when enabled). The Auto
Cleaning function can be enabled only if there is at least one inactive position in the magazine. If
Auto Cleaning is enabled, the inactive positions become cleaning cartridge positions.

Configuring network settings
Once the network settings are entered on the Operator Panel, the current network configuration of the
library can be modified with the Web User Interface. The changes that are made to the network settings
take effect after the library is rebooted.
