4 Application Software Installation
Refer to the documentation included with your software for instructions on how to verify
installation.
Library and Drive Operational Problems
Most problems with the operation of your Scalar Library and/or DLT drives happen when the
drives are not cleaned regularly or when you use incorrect data cartridges. If you have been
successfully operating the application software and library in the past, but are now
experiencing problems reading and writing data, check the following:
4 If you are writing data, make sure that the cartridge is write enabled (move the write-
protect switch to the enabled position).
4 Check the data cartridge you are using. If your library has DLT2000XT drives installed,
you can only use CompacTape III and CompacTape IIIXT cartridges. The DLT4000 and
DLT7000 drives can use CompacTape III, CompacTape IIIXT, and CompacTape IV
cartridges.
4 If the cartridge has been in use for a long time or if it has been used frequently, try using a
new cartridge.
4 Clean the drive head.
Library Error Codes
If, during operation of your Scalar Library an error occurs, the library will halt the current
operation and an error code will be displayed on the operator’s display. The error code is
displayed at the beginning of the 4th line and will consist of 2 hexadecimal characters. The
first three lines will not be changed.
In all cases, after removing the cause of the problem push MENU to return the Scalar Library
to the On-Line Mode.
If you cannot find a cause for the error, try to return the Scalar Library to the On-Line Mode
by pressing ALT and/or ENTER. If that does not work, or if the error code reappears, call
adic Customer Assistance and be prepared to tell them what the error code is – and what the
conditions are (see When You Call adic Customer Assistance later in this chapter).
