ACF Recovery Procedure
ACFs with flashing attention indicator LEDs, or ACFs with continuous attention indicator LEDs that are not flashing, use the recovery procedures that are listed below. Perform the recovery procedure that is appropriate for your loader’s condition.
Attention Indicator LED Flashes
If the attention indicator LED flashes, do the following:
1.Remove the cartridge from the feed position (if present).
2.Add cartridges to the magazine if the loader is in Auto or System mode.
3.Press the Enter button, select Start and press Enter to resume operation.
Further operator service is required during the recovery situation if one of the following conditions occurs:
vA cartridge in the drive is returned to the feed position. Remove the cartridge, select start, and press the Enter button again to resume operation.
vIn Manual or System mode, an attempt is made to load the same cartridge that was processed. If the same cartridge will be used again, remove and reinsert it. Press the Enter switch to resume operations.
Note: A corrected problem cancels the attention indicator LED.

1.If a FID or ATTN message appears on the display, record the code for future reference.
2.Initiate a manual recovery attempt by pressing the Unload switch. The recovery is successful if the attention indicator LED on the loader is turned off. If the attention indicator LED on the loader begins flashing, perform the procedure that is listed in “Attention Indicator LED Flashes”.
3.If the attention indicator LED on the loader remains on continuously after you press the Unload switch three times, issue a VARY ONLINE command. This command is issued to the operating system from the host operator’s console. (When the subsystem presents error information, it posts an error message.) This step must be performed from an operating system that currently has a path access to this device.
If the attention indicator LED remains on continuously, continue with the following steps:
vIssue a VARY OFFLINE command from the host operator’s console of the operating system.
vIssue a VARY ONLINE command to the operating system from the host operator’s console.
