Modes of Operation
4. Press the Start switch.
5. Unload the output bin when the job is complete or as necessary.
Manual Mode
In manual mode, the operator has complete control over CSL and drive
operation. While the CSL is in manual mode:
• You may wait for a cartridge mount request and then mount a cartridge.
• You may receive requests for multiple cartridge mounts and load the
requested volumes into the input tray.
• You may remove individual cartridges as they are ejected from the feed
channel or wait until the output bin is full before removing them.
Note: In Manual mode, however, you must press the
Start switch each time to
load a cartridge into the drive.
Refer to “Priority Mount Mode” on page 5-20 to physically mount a
priority cartridge directly into the CSL.
Unload
Upon receiving an unload command from the drive, the CSL acts identically to
the unload in the system mode.
After the unload is successfully completed the CSL pauses until the
Start switch
is pressed. Pressing the
Start switch loads the next available cartridge. The CSL
sequences as follows:
• If the output bin is not full, the cartridge is placed into the output bin.
• If the output bin is full, the cartridge remains in the feed channel, and the
operator indicator blinks until the cartridge is removed from the output bin
and the
Start switch is pressed.
Note: Refer to “Cartridge Removal from Feed Channel” on page 5-22 to
remove a priority mounted cartridge from the feed channel.
• If a mount has been pre-queued then, if possible, the next cartridge is
mounted with only one cartridge shift operation.
Place CSL in Manual Mode
1. Press the Autoload Mode switch until the green manual indicator illuminates.
2. Press the
Start switch to set the Manual mode.
3. When a mount message appears on the operator panel or system console,
place the requested volumes in the input bin.
4. Press the
Start switch.
5. Unload the output bin when necessary.
