Power Save To help save power, the operator panel goes dark after a period of
inactivity on the operator panel (meaning, no buttons have been
pressed). The default period is 30 minutes. You can set this period to 15
minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes, or never.

page 100).
• Tape drives start to autolevel.
• The library receives a signal to shut down.
• Library health (diagnostic ticket) status changes.
• Library ready status changes.
The operator panel will NOT go dark when:
• The library is initializing.
• Tape drives are autoleveling.
•The Assign I/E screen is displayed (see Manual Cartridge Assignment
on page 100).
