Readying the changer for operation

STEP 2

In order to ready the changer for operation, perform the following steps in the order indicated.

1.Turning on the power (see p. 17)

2.Loosening the shipping screws (see p. 17)

3.Installing drive units (see p. 17)

4.Connecting SCSI cables (see p. 18)

5.Inserting disc magazines (see p. 20)

6.Closing access doors (see p. 23)

1.Turning on the power

When the power is first turned on, both the front and rear access doors will automatically open. This is not a faulty operation but the function of the shipping screws tightened at the time of shipping or re-transporting.

NOTES:

¶Be sure not to close neither the front nor rear access door until all drives and disc magazines have been installed.

¶If the door does not open when the power is turned on, wait until the initialization routine has completed and the LCD shows the user mode display (p. 23), then refer to p. 37 ("System Administrator Mode: Door Sub-mode") for instructions on opening the door.

2. Loosening the shipping screws

When the front access door is opened, shipping screws may be seen at near the bottom inside the changer. These screws are attached to prevent damage to the built-in mechanism of the changer during transporting.

Shipping screws are designed so that they can only be loosened and cannot be removed so as to prevent their

becoming lost.

NOTES:

¶Be sure to tighten again the shipping screws before re- transporting the changer.

¶If you or someone close the front or the rear access door with the shipping screws loosened, the closed door can not open automatically like before. And when the both doors are closed, the changer starts its mechanical initialization. So if you have not finished the installation yet, it is necessary to open the access doors again to continue with installation. (See System administrator mode: Door submodes on p. 37 for further information.)

Installation

3. Installing drive units

No tools are required for attaching drive units. Note that while drives may be installed in any of the rear bays from #1 – #8, the location of the connector panel that has been attached at the time of shipment had been designed for drives to be installed in bays #1 and #2.

1. Attaching add-on connector panels, if necessary

Screwdriver

2. Attaching drive units

Before installation, be sure to specify the following settings at the rear of each drive to be installed. (See the operating instructions provided with drive for details.)

¶SCSI ID assignment

Specify the SCSI IDs to be used so as to ensure that the same SCSI ID is not assigned by more than one drive on the same SCSI bus.

¶Termination

Set the termination switch of the last drive in the SCSI chain to the ON position.

1When inserting a drive, be sure to place the drive on the changer guide rails and push the drive in until the lock lever on the drive shifts to the locked position. Maybe you can hear a clicking sound then.
