POWER-ON PROCEDURE

Perform the following procedure to power on each LF 6600:

1)Ensure that the LF 6600 is properly connected (refer to the SCSI Bus Consideration section).

2)Refer to the Media Insertion and Removal section and insert a cartridge into slot 1. If slot 1 is empty, the LF 6600 will display "1 Empty" on the DOC shortly after initial power on.

NOTE

Slot 1 is the factory setting for the media autoload configuration option.

If this option has been changed by the user, all references to slot 1 in this manual apply instead to the slot number selected in the autoload configuration option. Refer to the Configuration mode section for more information on setting configuration options.

3)Set the AC Power Switch to the ON ( I ) position and verify that air is flowing through the LF 6600.

4)Verify that the WRITE PROTECT indicator is illuminated briefly.

5)Verify that the "Selftest" message is displayed on the DOC.

The "Selftest" message indicates that the power-on selftests are running. When the power-on selftests are completed without errors, the drive will perform a test to determine which slots in the shuttle are occupied by media cartridges and then will load media #1.

When the "1 Ready" message is displayed, the LF 6600 has passed the power-on selftests and has successfully loaded the LM 6000 media cartridge in slot 1.

6)Verify that the "Selftest" message displayed on the DOC is replaced by the "1 Ready" message.

7)Refer to Modes of Operation section to familiarize yourself with the LF 6600 modes of operation. View the current drive configuration parameters by following the procedure in Viewing the Configuration section. The factory settings can be changed to custom settings of your choice by following the instructions provided in the Configuration Mode section.

The LF 6600 is now in the normal Operating mode, and is ready to be controlled and accessed by a host system.

LF 6602 specifications

The Plasmon LF 6602 is a state-of-the-art storage solution that is designed to meet the demands of high-capacity data management and retention. This innovative device serves as an optical archive system that combines reliability, longevity, and advanced technology to ensure the preservation of critical data over extended periods.

One of the key features of the LF 6602 is its impressive storage capacity. The system is capable of holding up to 60 terabytes of data, making it ideal for organizations with large datasets, such as healthcare providers, financial institutions, and media companies. This vast storage capacity not only allows for the archiving of traditional data but also supports the growing needs for multimedia and big data applications.

The Plasmon LF 6602 utilizes advanced optical disc technology, specifically the write-once, read-many (WORM) format. This ensures that once data is written to the optical disc, it cannot be altered or deleted, which provides a high level of data integrity and security. This feature is particularly beneficial for compliance regulations and legal requirements, as organizations can be assured that their archived data remains unmodified.

In terms of performance, the LF 6602 stands out with its fast retrieval times and efficient data access. The integrated software provides a user-friendly interface that enables quick searches and metadata management, allowing users to easily locate and access files as needed. The system supports multiple disc formats and can accommodate various data types, enhancing its versatility for different applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the Plasmon LF 6602. The optical discs are resistant to environmental factors such as temperature variations and humidity, which significantly reduces the risk of data loss due to physical degradation. The long lifespan of the media, often exceeding 50 years, ensures that data remains accessible for future generations.

Moreover, the LF 6602 is designed with scalability in mind. As data requirements grow, organizations can expand their storage systems seamlessly, integrating additional units without disrupting ongoing operations. This flexibility allows businesses to adapt to changing needs without incurring significant costs.

In summary, the Plasmon LF 6602 is a cutting-edge optical archive system characterized by its substantial storage capacity, data integrity through WORM technology, fast performance, high durability, and scalability. Its collective features make it an ideal choice for organizations looking to secure and manage their critical data efficiently and effectively.
