CHANGING THE EMULATION MODE

By default, the autoloader operates in Native emulation mode and returns the product identification, “Magnum 1x7,” in response to a SCSI INQUIRY command from an application. If your autoloader software has not yet been certified for the Magnum 1x7 LTO Autoloader, you can select an option that allows the autoloader to emulate the VXA AutoPak 1x10 autoloader, Exabyte EZ17 autoloader, or the Exabyte 210 library. Table 3-4lists the available emulation modes for the autoloader.
