LCD 2 Digit Codes
This chart is a supplement to the 7332-220 Service Guide. Often these two digit codes will indicate that a drive needs to be
replace. However some times the cause for these errors is simple to correct and should be attempted instead of replacing the
tape drive.
Possible causes for the 2 digit codes are:
z Screws used to secure the tape drive to the drive mounting bracket are too long. These screws can be a maximum of
4mm long, longer screws will interfere with the internal operation of the autoloader.
Note: The screws used to secure the 7332-220 cover and other parts of the drive are 6mm long.
z Cartridges that are damaged may not operate properly and may impede the operation of the autoloader.
z Improperly mounted or secured labels on cartridges may impede the operation of the autoloader.
z Loose or damaged SCSI cable inside the 7332-220.
In general:
z Remove any cartridge from the drive. If the cartridge will not eject, recycle power to the tape drive.
z Remove the magazine.
z Recycle power to the tape drive.
z Try a different cartridge.
z Check cables, terminators, system connections, etc.
z Check for other causes for interference to the magazine.
