80 Maintaining your Library
Moving the Picker in Increments
Use Step to manipulate the vertical and rotary axes of the picker in incremental steps.
Path: Main Menu > More > Service > Library > Diags > Picker > Step
1 From the main menu, select More and then select Service. Select Library and then select Diags.
Select Picker and then select Step.
2 A dialog box appears warning that only qualified personnel should operate this feature. Select OK.
3 Using Up, Down, and Next, complete the following fields. The picker moves as you press these buttons.
• Pivot axis — specifies the number degrees the picker will rotate. Possible values are 0 to 275
degrees.
• Vert. axis — specifies how many millimeters the picker will be extended during this exercise.
Possible values are 0 to the maximum height for your library.
• Step amount — specifies how many tenths of millimeters the picker should step. Possible values
are 1 to 100.
Sending the Picker to the Home Position
Use Home to send the vertical and rotary axes to their home positions.
Path: Main Menu > More > Service > Library > Diags > Picker > Home
1 From the main menu, select More and then select Service. Select Library and then select Diags.
Select Picker and then select Home.
2 Select OK.
Exercising the Library
Use Exercise to access library exercises. You can run a demonstration, self test, or teach operations.
These exercises are helpful when troubleshooting and when testing new configurations.
Running a Demo
Use Demo to run a demonstration routine. This command is helpful for testing new library configurations to
ensure all the components are interacting correctly.
Note
This is an advanced diagnostic tool that is not intended for use during normal
operation.
CAUTION
This command could potentially move a cartridge into an incorrect
partition, if the library has been partitioned by the host.
Note
Demo Test randomly moves tapes within the library to demonstrate robotic
motion. The Demo Test requires one more tape than the number of drives in
the library. For example, if your library has one drive, there must be at least two
pieces of media in it for Demo Test to complete successfully.
