MTU DIAGNOSTIC SPECIFICATIONS M2488 PRODUCT GUIDE

H-4.3.4.5 M5:LOCAT: Tape locating time measurement

Measure the time required for tape locating from the wrap-1 BOT position to the wrap-1 PEOT position. (Unit: 1/10 sec)

The measured data is stored in either of two areas for normal and E cartridges.

After rewinding the tape to the wrap-1 BOT, servo MPU measures the Locating execution time from wrap-1 BOT to sector 95.

H-4.3.4.6 M6:REWND: Tape rewinding time measurement

Measure the time required for tape rewinding from the wrap-1PEOT position to the wrap-1 BOT position. (Unit: 1/10 sec)

The measured data is stored in either of two areas for normal and E cartridges.

After locating sector 95, servo MPU measures the Rewinding execution time from sector 95 to wrap-1 BOT.

H-4.3.4.7 M7:D.S.E: DSE time measurement

Measure the time required for DSE from the wrap-1 BOT position to the wrap-2 PEOT position. (Unit: 1/10 sec)

After rewinding the tape to the wrap-1 BOT, measure the DSE command execution time neces- sary to reach the wrap-2 PEOT position.

H-4.3.4.8 M8:UNLD: Cartridge unloading time measurement

If the tape is not at the wrap-1 BOT position, rewind the tape.

Unload the cartridge and measure the following operation times during unloading. Both normal and E-cartridge are able to be measured.

Tape winding time (from wrap-1 BOT to immediately before unthreading)

Measure the time from when the start of rewinding from the wrap-1 BOT position begins until immediately before unthreading. (Unit: 1/10 sec)

Unthreading time

Measure the time from the start of unthreading until the end of threading. (Unit: 1/10 sec) Loader operation time

Measure the time from when the loader starts rising until it ejects the cartridge (by the ejec- tion arm). (Unit: 1/10 sec)

H-4.3.4.9 M9:CLEAN: Cleaning time measurement

Load a cleaning cartridge and measure the time from when loader starts loading the cartridge until its ejects the cartridge after cleaning. (Unit: 1/10 sec)

The tests can be set using the following parameters:

DIAG parameter 1: For “M2:TPPFM”, “M3:AC/PS” and “M4:MODCH”, specify a location sector from 1 to 75.

The minimum value is 5.

The maximum value for a normal length cartridge is 60. The maximum value for an external length cartridge is 75.
