Plasmon V15 manual Setting Sequential Options, Next Cartridge Option

Before restarting, the library performs the following actions:

1.If the robot is moving a cartridge, it finishes the move. (This includes inserting the cartridge into the tape drive if the robot is moving a cartridge to the tape drive.)

NOTE

If you attempt to open the door, the library does not release the door interlock until it the move completes.

2.The library performs a power-on self-test (POST). If you open the door, the library performs its POST after you close the door.

3.If a cartridge is in the tape drive, the robot waits for the cartridge to eject, then returns it to its original slot.

Next Cartridge Option

The Next Cartridge option allows you to interrupt sequential processing and specify that the next cartridge the library selects is the cartridge in slot 1. If you want to resume sequential processing from the first cartridge, select Next Cartridge from the Sequential Mode menu.
