Cartridge Cycle Diagnostic
When you select Cartridge Cycle, the library robotics begin to move cartridges
randomly from slot to slot in the magazine, while reporting on the front panel
the number of passes.
This diagnostic will run continuously as long as the Base Module has power.
To stop the test, press the Escape button. A flashing message appears on the
display telling you that the test is paused. Pressing the Escape button a second
time terminates the diagnostic and returns to the Maintenance Menu.

Demo 1 is implemented. Demo 1 enables the user to fully exercise the library

randomly from slot to slot in the magazine, while reporting on the front panel
the number of passes. If all ten slots in the magazine are full, Demo 1 will load

button while

Demo 1 will run continuously as long as the Base Module has power. To stop
