Running an Inventory
The autoloader automatically runs an inventory whenever you power it back on or insert a magazine. An inventory checks each magazine slot, the drive, the
picker, and the media door (mailslot) to determine if a cartridge is present. If so, it also reads the bar code label, if available. If you need to run an inventory in
addition to this, you can do so manually.
The following shows approximate autoloader startup times with varying tape cartridge magazine configurations:
To perform an inventory manually:
1. From the main menu, scroll to Commands, and then press Enter.
2. From the Commands submenu, scroll to Inventory, and then press Enter. The autoloader scans the bar codes of all the cartridges present.
