Getting Status and Information
Operators and Administrator can view information about the library by accessing the items under the Reports menu. The Reports menu information is available from both the front panel interface and the remote management interface. However we recommend using the remote management interface to view the reports due to the limited number of information available on the small FPI screen. Also the FPI reports show a subset of the RMI reports only.
The status listed in this chapter is the reports available from the remote management interface. For an overview of the reports available from the front panel interface refer to the front panel menu map in figure 14 Front Panel Interface Menu Tree.
