SENSOR
TRANSLATE Tests the horizontal path that the cartridge transport mechanism follows when
moving from one stack of tape cartridges to another. Displays on or off. If off
displays, the path is blocked. (This display is automatically updated if the sensor
status changes.) Requires use of one tape cartridge.
SENSORS
MAILSLOT When the mailslot is empty and flush with the side panel, either of the
following displays:
MB * MF * MS 0
MB 0 MF * MS 0
When the mailslot contains a cartridge that is correctly inserted and ready
to be loaded, either of the following displays:
MB 0 MF * MS 0
MB 0 MF 0 MS 0
While the cartridge is being loaded, the “MS” status toggles between 0 and
* .
Press CANCEL to rotate the mailslot out and remove the cartridge.
SENSORS
STARWARS 0 0 displays.
Each 0 indicates one path that the cartridge transport mechanism follows
in front of each stack of tape cartridges:
If the path is clear, 0 displays.
If the path is blocked (for example, because a cartridge is not inserted
fully into its storage slot),
* displays.
This display updates automatically if the sensor status changes.
VERTICAL
ENCODER Moves the cartridge transport mechanism down, back up a short distance,
then back down. The last time the transport mechanism is moved down
the number of encoder counts is verified. Returns PASS/FAIL. No tape
cartridges are required.
