Host System

Media can also be reserved by software running on the host. The library provides no GUI touch screen override for this command. Usually, exiting the host software restores media access. In the event of host failure, you can restore media access by cycling the library power.

Library Display Screens and Options

The library GUI touch screen displays graphics and text characters in the form of easy-to-understand messages. Graphics and text messages, along with their functions, are described in this section.
