Starting the System

CAUTION:

When powering up the MiniLibrary, power must be applied to the

Expansion Unit either simultaneously with or after the other modules. If the

Expansion Unit is powered on first, its inventory of modules might be incorrect,

and the contents of some or all of the modules will be inaccessible to the

system and to the host.

Display Messages

The display on the control panel is capable of displaying four lines of 20

characters each, to allow the use of easy-to-understand messages. Many of

these messages and their functions are described in this chapter. The displays

described in other chapters are cross-referenced here as well.

Power-On Self Test Screen

When power is first applied to the module, a series of POST diagnostics are

performed. During POST execution, the model number of the module, the

firmware revision, the status or result of the test in progress and the current

date and time are displayed on the control panel as shown:
