Set Identification

Use this setting to specify the response of the 5258ACL's robotics to the SCSI Inquiry

command in the Vendor ID and the Product ID fields. The defaults are: Vendor ID =

TSI; Product ID = 525X.

Set Date

Use this setting to set the module's calendar.

Set Time

Use this setting to set the module's clock.

Set Baud Rate

Use this setting to set the data transmission rate of the module's trace port. This function

is intended for use by service representatives only. The default is 38400 bps.

Set Serial Number

Use this setting to alter the 5258ACL's serial number stored in the unit. The 5258ACL's

robotics reports these settings in response to the SCSI Inquiry command in the Unit

Serial Number page.

Set Unload Mode

Use this setting to determine whether a SCSI Move Medium command is interpreted as

Implicit or Explicit. If Implicit, the module unloads a drive before attempting to move a

cartridge from that drive. If Explicit, the host must issue a SCSI Unload command to a

drive before each Move Medium command that removes a cartridge from that drive. The

default is Implicit.

Set Autoclean Mode

Use this setting to enable an automatic cleaning cycle that operates as part of the

cartridge unload sequence whenever the Use Cleaner LED comes on. This function can

be used only in Random Operating Mode. To use this option, reserve a slot for a

cleaning cartridge by using the Reserve Slots option. The default is disabled.

Set Negotiation

This option offers two choices: Initiate Synchronous Negotiation and Set Transfer Rate.

Set Initiate Negotiate to allow the 5258ACL to initiate SCSI Synchronous Negotiation

with the host (the default is No). The 5258ACL always responds to host-initiated

negotiation.

Set Transfer Rate can be set to 10 MB/sec, 5 MB/sec or asynchronous. The default is 10

MB/sec.
