Setup

Important

The front panel requires a six-digit password to change the configuration (see “Setting passwords” on page 33). The LCD front panel default password for the Administrator is 000000. The default password for the Operator is 111111.

When you first power on the autoloader, it automatically runs a POST (Power-on Self Test). During the POST, the left (green) LED flashes. After the POST, the left (green) and right (amber) LED flash alternately back and forth. Do one of the following:

■If the autoloader powers on successfully, continue configuring the autoloader (see “Configuring the autoloader” on page 24).

■If the autoloader does not power on successfully, make sure that:

■The power switch is on.

■The power cable is inserted correctly.

■The SCSI bus is terminated.

■The SCSI cable is connected to the autoloader and host computer.

■No error code appears on the autoloader LCD.

■If you cannot resolve the problem yourself, contact Gateway Customer Care (see “Getting Help” on page 6).

When you first power on the autoloader, the setting for the Internet Protocol (IP) address is static with the address 192.168.20.128. If you want to use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to change the IP address, see “Setting the IP address” on page 26. To determine the IP address when using DHCP, view the Ethernet status information (see “Setting Ethernet” on page 26).

Configuring the autoloader

To configure the autoloader, start with the Main menu on the front panel. If the

Main menu is not already visible on the LCD, press ENTER.

When you first power on the autoloader, the default is set with no password protection. However, after you set the security option, all the configuration functionality is password-protected. You need an administrator-level password to configure the autoloader (see “Default username and password” on page 55 for On-board Remote Management or “Setting security options” on page 59 for the front panel).
