performed. After the procedure is completed the drive will exit Maintenance
Mode. If you selected 5 - 1 the SCD will change to a flashing C indicating that a
data cartridge is to be inserted.
5. Insert a scratch (blank) data cartridge within 60 seconds, or the drive will exit
Maintenance Mode. Ensure the scratch cartridge is not write protected (or the
tape drive exits maintenance mode). The SCD flashes the selection number
while performing the function.
v If the copy operation completes successfully, the tape drive rewinds and
unloads the tape, and exits Maintenance Mode after the cartridge is removed.
v If the copy operation fails, an error code appears in the SCD. To determine
the error, locate the code in “Error Codes and Messages” on page 81. The
tape drive unloads the tape cartridge and exits Maintenance Mode after the
cartridge is removed.
Function Code 9: Display Error Code Log
Function Code 9 displays the last ten error codes, one at a time (the codes are
ordered; the most recent is presented first and the oldest is presented last). If there
are no errors in the log, function code 0 displays in the Single-character Display
(SCD) and exits Maintenance Mode.
1. Place the drive in Maintenance Mode. For instructions, see “Entering
Maintenance Mode” on page 72.
2. Press the Unload Button once per second until 9 appears in the SCD. (If you
cycle past the desired code, press the Unload Button once per second until the
code reappears.)
3. Press the Unload Button, then release it to view the most recent error code.
4. Press and release the Unload Button again to view successive error codes. Let
two to three seconds pass between each depression. The Green Ready LED and
Amber Fault LED will flash On/Off once for each successive error code. The
SCD will display 0 when all the error codes have been displayed.
5. After viewing all error codes, exit this function by pressing the Unload Button
again. The SCD will display 0 and exit Maintenance Mode.
Function Code A: Clear Error Code Log
Function Code A erases the contents of the error code log.
1. Place the drive in Maintenance Mode. For instructions, see “Entering
Maintenance Mode” on page 72.
2. Press the Unload Button once per second until A appears in the SCD. (If you
cycle past the desired code, press the Unload Button once per second until the
code reappears.)
3. Press and hold the Unload Button for three or more seconds, then release it to
select the function. A flashes in the SCD, followed by 0 . The tape drive erases
all errors from the error code log and exits Maintenance Mode.
Function Code C: Insert Cartridge into Tape Drive
This function cannot be selected by itself, but is part of other maintenance
functions (such as Run Tape Drive Diagnostics and Create FMR Tape) that require
a tape cartridge to be inserted.
