Upgrading the Firmware
You may need to apply the latest ®rmware to both the Store Controller and the tape drive.
Upgrading the Firmware for the Store Controller
In some cases, it may be necessary to upgrade the BIOS in the Store Controller so that it will work with the tape drive. You can ®nd the downloadable software to upgrade the ®rmware for the Store Controller at http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/®les.html. Search on the model number of the Store Controller to ®nd all information relating to that model.
Upgrading the Firmware for the Tape Drive
If you have an early version of the tape drive hardware, you must apply the latest ®rmware to the tape drive. To determine if you have an early version of the tape drive, look for a chip on the tape drive with ªWDCº written on it. If this chip is present, your tape drive is an early version. If you do not upgrade the ®rmware, the BIOS continues to give the errors 1762 and 162, and repeatedly takes you into the Con®guration/Setup Utility when the Store Controller is booted.
To upgrade the ®rmware for the tape drive:
1.Access the Internet web address: ªhttp://www.pc.ibm.com/us/®les.htmlº.
2.Click on ªSearchº.
3.Enter ªtr4codeº in the search ®eld and click on ªSearchº.
4.Click on ªtr4code.exeº.
5.Download the ®le to the subdirectory of your choice.
6.Click on ªtr4code.txtº and follow the installation instructions provided in this ®le.
