5157/5157 ACL S-Series DLT Subsystems Installation Users Guide
Operating the 5157 ACL Tape Drive 6-4
The Ready indicator (green) is illuminated when the 5157 ACL is
ready to accept commands from either the Control Panel or the host
computer. When the Menu Mode is entered, the Ready indicator
goes out.
The Use Cleaner LED (yellow) indicates that the drive requires
cleaning. A cleaning operation should be performed as described in
Chapter 9 – Maintenance for the 5157 ACL.
When either the Drive Fault or the Loader Fault LED (red) is
illuminated, a Fault Screen appears on the LCD display. The Fault
Screen is described later in this chapter.
6.3.2 Buttons
There are four buttons on the control panel, labeled Escape,
Enter, s, and t. The buttons do not directly control specific
functions or options. Instead, use the buttons to navigate from the
Default Screen through a multilevel menu structure, then select the
desired option from the appropriate menu using the Enter button.
Table 6-1 describes the effect of each of the four buttons under
various conditions.
The three most important things to know about the buttons are:
1) To enter the Menu Mode and display the Main Menu from the
Default Screen, press the Enter button.
2) To return to the Main Menu from a submenu, press the Escape
button repeatedly until the Main Menu appears. Pressing the
Escape button while the Main Menu is displayed exits the Menu
Mode and returns the user to the Default Screen. The Default
Screen is shown in Figure 6-5; the Main Menu is shown in Figure
6-8.
