Hardware Operator's Guide Figure 3-9. Removing a Cartridge from the Hand Mounting a Cartridge into a Drive CAUTION: Before you mount a cartridge into the drive, you must make sure that power is on, and that the Operate Handle indicator is on. Use the shuttle to operate, not the drive handle. A safety mechanism protects the drive if you try to operate it in an incorrect state. The shuttle will not operate if this mechanism is activated. To reset the safety mechanism, wait for the Operate Handle indicator to turn on. Pull firmly on the shuttle, then push the shuttle in completely. If the cartridge did not eject, or if the handle did not rise, pull and push again. To mount a cartridge into a drive: 1. Obtain the cartridge VOLSER, location, and drive number from the LSM management software. 2. Open the LSM front door by using a latch key to unlock the top and bottom latches. Refer to Figure 3-3. 3. Locate the cartridge. 4. Make sure that the DLT handle is up, and the cartridge hook and hub are down. Figure 3-10 shows the handle positions. 3-13
