You can use one of the library's serial ports and a console interface 
program (such as CHSTERM) to access the library firmware. The 
console interface, also referred to as the 
Diagnostic Console
, allows you 
to view information about the library, perform diagnostics tests, create 
diagnostic listings, and download new firmware. You can also use the 
library's serial ports to perform diagnostics on the tape drives.
The following table illustrates the functions you can perform using the 
serial ports. As the table indicates, unless you want to control the motion 
of the CHM, you do not need to switch to 9-Pin or 25-Pin Serial Port 
control mode (or to 25/9 Pin control mode).
