The following functions are available under the dIAG MENU:
dSP FW | When executed, this function displays the revision of the operating firmware used by FastStor |
| microprocessors and the drive. |
SIGN ON | Use this function if your application software does not support FastStor, but does support the |
| SCALAR library. |
CHG MOdE | Use this function to change the Mode of Operation from/to RANDOM or SEQUENTIAL. |
CYCLE TEST | This function allows you to verify the functionality of the FastStor robotics. CYCLE TEST |
| exercises the FastStor robotics by executing a sequence of pick and place operations, moving the |
| cartridges between the slots and the drive. |
CLEAN dRV | The CLEAN DRV function permits you to clean the drive head manually. Use this function if |
| your application software does not support an auto cleaning cycle, and you do not want to |
| dedicate slot 7 to the FastStor AUTOCLEAN feature. |
AUTOCLEAN | AUTOCLEAN provides an automatic cleaning cycle. Use AUTOCLEAN only if your |
| application software does not support an auto cleaning cycle. Slot 7 is dedicated to the cleaning |
| cartridge whenever AUTOCLEAN is enabled, reducing the FastStor data capacity to 6 tapes. |
LOAd FW | When executed, this function allows you to upgrade the FastStor formware via the SCSI bus. |
dSP COUNTS | FastStor keeps track of how many times certain events have occurred. The dSP COUNTS |
| function returns these numbers to the display. |
UPG dRV FW | This function allows you to upgrade the drive firmware using a FUP tape. |
