SEPTEMBER 2005 MAGNUM 1X7 LTO AUTOLOADER
9-11
WHAT YOU SEND TO THE AUTOLOADER
When LCD security is enabled, access to the following LCD activities is
prevented:
Changing the cartridge loader control mode
Changing SCSI IDs
Changing SCSI parity checking
Changing the emulation mode
Changing the Ethernet configuration options
Performing operator panel diagnostics or demo routines
Using the options for cleaning the tape drive
A user trying to access the operator panel menu options for these activities
receives an error message.
Note: You can also enable LCD security from the operator panel using a
password. (Refer to the Magnum 1x7 LTO Autoloader Product Manual for
information.) Whichever method you use to enable LCD security (operator
panel or MODE SELECT), you must use the same method to disable LCD
security. That is, if you enable LCD security through the operator panel,
you must disable it through the operator panel. Similarly, if you enable
LCD security using a MODE SELECT command, you must disable it with
MODE SELECT.

This field determines the type of text that appears on Display Line 1 of the

Display Line 1 – Bytes 04 through 19
This field enables you to specify the text that will appear on line 1 of the LCD.
Display Line 1 is typically used to specify the product name displayed on the
LCD. The default product name for the autoloader is “LTO 1x7 2U”.
You can use up to 16 characters for this text. If you use less than 16 characters,
at least one byte following the text must be a 00h.
The text specified in this field is displayed when the autoloader does not have
any active status to display (for example, the cartridge loader is ready to
receive commands and there are no error conditions).
