❐ If not already installed, place a FUP tape in slot 2 then press SELECT. If you press SELECT before placing the
FUP tape in slot 2, UPG dRV FW will appear momentarily on the LCD and then the blinking CT 2 (SEL)
message will reappear.
The drive will be placed in a “prepare for firmware upgrade via tape” mode. The FastStor will move the FUP tape to the drive and
the upgrade process will begin. UPdATING will appear on the LCD, the three front panel LEDs will alternate between POWER
on, ACTIVITY off, ALARM on, POWER off, ACTIVITY on, ALARM off, and the Activity Bars will indicate the drive activity;
also, the POWER button will be disabled during the upgrade.
When the update process is completed, the FastStor will auto-unload the tape and return it to slot 2. The following message will be
blinking on the LCD:
Rmv 2 (sel) 1 2 34567
❐ Remove the FUP tape from slot 2, then press SELECT to return the FastStor to LdR REAdY.
If the dRIVE PGRM message and the error indicator E appear on the LCD after several minutes, perform the following:
❐ Verify that the tape is a valid FUP tape and not a data or cleaning cartridge.
❐ If you believe that the tape is OK, repeat the update process. If the FastStor displays the same error message, call ATAC for
assistance.
