Datasheet

Note:
1. A solid amber Cleaning LED indicates that the drive needs cleaning. The drive will continue to function but needs
cleaning as soon as possible. Do not ignore the indicator by cycling the power to turn it off.
2. The media has reached the end of its useful life and should be replaced. Any data should be copied to a new cartridge
as soon as possible.
3. Flashing in this state indicates a problem with write/read performance.
4. An unrecoverable drive failure is an error condition that results in the drive not being able to function unless initiator,
operator, or service intervention is applied.
An unrecoverable drive failure is usually the result of a hardware error condition.
One of the following actions is needed to clear the flashing fault LED:
{ Hard SCSI reset
{ Cartridge emergency eject
{ Power cycle
{ Retry firmware download
An unrecoverable media failure is usually the result of a defective cartridge, media, or cartridge state, and will require
the drive to eject the cartridge (if possible) to clear the On LED.
