2.On the main menu, scroll to Configuration and press Enter.

3.On the Configuration submenu, scroll to SCSI ID and press Enter.

4.Scroll to the number you want to set as the autoloader's SCSI ID, then press Enter. Cycle Power new SCSI ID appears on the LCD.

5.Press and hold the power button on the front panel until System Shutdown wait 60 sec appears on the LCD. Power Off appears on the LCD, then the autoloader shuts off.

6.Press the power button again to power on the autoloader. The new SCSI ID is now in effect.

Ethernet is the method used by the autoloader to access a network. With an Ethernet connection, you can remotely access the autoloader over the network. To use the Ethernet connection, you must define the following:

•A dynamic or static IP address for the autoloader (required)

•A subnet mask (required for static IP)
