ERROR MESSAGES

	This appendix defines error messages that may appear on the autoloader’s
	operator panel and provides corrective actions.
Caution	Most autoloader components can be replaced only by Exabyte-approved service
	providers. If you cannot find an obvious cause for the problem, contact your
	service provider. Do not attempt to replace any components other than the tape
	drive. If you do, you will void your warranty.
	! Important	Some corrective actions advise you to reset or power the
		autoloader off and back on. To avoid disrupting

communication between the host computer and other devices on the bus, make sure that there is no activity on the bus before you reset or power off the autoloader.

If you need to power the autoloader off, first unload the cartridge from the tape drive, if possible. If you power the autoloader off and back on while a cartridge is in the tape drive, the drive may have to perform a lengthy format recovery process.

Table C-1lists autoloader error messages in alphabetical order. If the suggested corrective action does not correct the error, contact Exabyte Technical Support (see page iii) or your service provider.
