natural blink reflex. This is a natural involuntary response which causes the
individual to blink and avert their head thereby terminating the eye exposure.
Cross Linked (CLM)
library A Cross Linked library comprises two or more standalone libraries that function
as a single system. Additional hardware and specific firmware is required to
form a CLM library.
Elements SCSI designation for any device or bin in the library that can hold a cartridge.
SCSI elements include storage bins, tape drives, load port bins, and the picker.
EMI Electro-Magnetic Interference refers to unwanted electrical noise present on a
power line. This noise may leak from the power lines and affect equipment that
isn't even connected to the power line. Such leakage is called a magnetic field.
Magnetic fields are formed when unwanted noise voltages give rise to noise
currents. Such noise signals may adversely affect electronic equipment and cause
intermittent data problems.
ESD Electrostatic Discharge
Host The device or devices to which the library is connected.
IEC The International Electrotechnical Commission is based in Geneva, Switzerland.
IPv4 IPv4 is an Internet Protocol that contains addressing information and some control
information that enables data to be routed in a network. IPv4 has an IP address
size of 32 bits and is written as four numbers separated by periods. An IPv4
address contains numerals only (0–255). A sample IPv4 IP address looks like:
127.0.0.1.
IPv6 IPv6 is an Internet Protocol that contains addressing information and some control
information that enables data to be routed in a network. IPv6 has an IP address
size of 128 bits and is in hexadecimal format (base 16). An IPv6 address can
contain numerals (0-9) and some letters (a-f). A sample IPv6 address looks like:
3ffe:ffff:100:f101:210:a4ff:fee3:9566.
Load port A port used to add a small number of tapes to the library without interrupting
library functions.

LTO5 Linear Tape-Open is a tape drive specification backed by HP, IBM, and Seagate.
Ultrium 3280 tape drives (LTO5) are HP's fifth generation of LTO tape drives.
LVD Low Voltage Differential or LVD is a type of electrical signaling for parallel SCSI
and can reach distances up to 12 meters. All SCSI HP Ultrium 460 tape drives
are LVD devices. SDLT tape drives can be LVD or HVD devices.
