The following describes the FLASH command syntax:
FLASH [DRIVE] $drive
[, [SWITCH] { ON  OFF } ]
[DRIVE] $drive
is the logical device number or name of the tape drive whose BEB
locator LED is affected by this command. There is no default
value; a value must be entered for this parameter.
[SWITCH] { ON  OFF }
is the instruction that specifies the action for the BEB locator LED.
ON means to flash the LED on and off. OFF means to turn off the
LED. The default action is ON.
Specify OFF to turn off the BEB locator LED regardless of why it
was lit. (The BEB locator LED can be activated as a result of the
flash command or by the 3216 controller when it detects an error.)
