caught in library robotics. Keep hair, clothing, and appendages
clear of moving parts. Do not override any of the product’s safety
features.

UpdatestotheUserGuides:General
InstallingtheSpectra2KLibrary
LibraryAccessories
The library comes with the following accessories:
• One 120-volt AC power cord
• One or two data cartridge magazine(s)
• Two keys for the library’s front door
• One small screwdriver for configuring settings on the back of the library
Note: Data cartridge magazine dust covers (clear plastic lids) are no
longer shipped with the library. Any references in the user guide to
included dust covers are outdated.
Note: A 68-pin SCSI terminator is no longer included with the library.
You may still purchase a terminator separately, but any references
in the User Guide to an included SCSI terminator are outdated.
LibraryInitialization
Confirm the SCSI switch settings before initializing the library.
Note that the iSCSI 2K library requires time to initialize the robotics, followed by
another 3.5 minutes to complete the initialization. Wait until the drive and library
information display, followed by the configuration menu display. Do not select Enter
or otherwise interrupt the process until the initialization is complete to avoid system
problems
ConfiguringtheSpectra2KLibrary
AbouttheConfigurationSwitch
The configuration switch determines:
• Emulation mode for the robotics
• Emulation mode for the AIT tape drives
8
UpdatestotheUserGuides
The default position of the configuration switch (0) identifies the library and tape
drives with the following information:
• Library Inquiry (or Name): Spectra 215
• Drive Manufacturer: Sony
• Drive Model: SDX-400V, SDX-500V, SDX-700V, or SDX-900V, SDX-1100
• Drive DIP Switch: 0
These values, returned by the SCSI INQUIRY command, inform the host computer how
to communicate with the library and tape drives. Some operating systems require
custom configurations in order to communicate with the library.
