Operation

Option submode

Some changer functions may be selected at user request. In order to allow system administrators to make the most of the features provided by changer control software and database management software, optional functions may be selected as needed. Note that requirements concerning security levels or operations performed at the time of errors may also change depending on the location in which the changer has been installed, and that options should be selected accordingly.

Option submode may be used to specify the following optional functions.

1.Auto probing (Set OFF at the time of shipment)

2.Hot start (Set OFF at the time of shipment)

3.Auto eject (Set ON at the time of shipment)

4.Hyper I/E (Set ON at the time of shipment)

5.Alert buzzer (Set ON at the time of shipment)

6.Free message (Set OFF at the time of shipment)

1.Auto probing

It is possible that discs have been inserted into normal-type 50-disc magazines and hyper magazines before these magazines are inserted into the changer. But it does not mean that these imported discs are ready to use because the changer and the host computer have not recognized yet which slot holds a disc or not. Therefore the first thing to do is examining which slot a disc is in, that is called probing.

While this probing function is usually performed by the changer control software running on the host computer, in cases where users wish to perform this before connecting the changer to the host computer or in cases where the changer control software being used does not support such probing function, probe submode (see p. 36) may be used instead. Using probe submode, however, may be inconvenient since it requires that all of the disc magazines to be checked be specified one by one.

Auto probing may be used to have the changer automatically check all disc magazines which need to be checked to determine whether or not discs have been inserted.

Press the ENT key

Press the key to set to ON

Press the ENT key

(Note that an “Auto probing is prohibited” message will be displayed if auto probing is set to OFF.)

Note that even after switching auto probing function from OFF to ON, auto probing will not actually be performed until a reset is performed, a hyper magazine is inserted or the mechanism initialization is finished after access doors are closed.

When auto probing begins, the changer will begin to check whether all slots of the disc magazines to be checked in sequence to determine whether they are “empty” or “full”.

To turn auto probing temporarily off, turn the key switch to UNLOCK position and press the ESC key.

NOTES:

It takes approximately 2 minutes to check a 50-disc magazine.

Some commands from the host computer cannot be executed while auto probing is being performed.
