Vendor Identification: Eight byte ASCII string. This field is set to: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 I B M Product Identification: Sixteen byte ASCII string. This field depends on the library model. This field is set to: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 3 5 7 3 - T L Product Revision Level: This field contains 4 bytes of ASCII data that provides the media changer's software revision levels. When a firmware update is performed on the media changer, this part of the revision level changes to reflect that update. BarC: When set this bit indicates that the library is equipped with a bar code scanner. IUS: Information Units Supported. Set to 0 indicating information units are not supported. QAS: Quick Arbitrate Supported. Set to 0 indicating QAS is not supported. Clocking: Indicates the level of data clocking supported. Set to 11b if the host interface speed has not been set to limit transfers to 80MB/s. Set to 00b when the host interface speed has been set to limit transfers to 80 MB/s. Version Descriptors: The version descriptors report the identifier of the supported SCSI command sets.
