Entering the Menu Mode
IMPORTANT:
When the Expansion Unit enters Menu Mode, the Ready light goes out. This
means that the module is off-line, and responds to all commands from the host with a
SCSI Not Ready until you exit Menu Mode and the Ready light comes on.
To prevent inadvertent interruption of host operations, you can lock out the
Menu Mode using the Security menu. See the section “Security Menu,” later
in this chapter. When all control panels are locked, you must enter your unlock
code in order to display the Main menu. Note that the Show Status menu of
each module remains accessible. It can be displayed from the module’s
Default screen at any time by pressing the
Escape
button.
When the Default screen appears, you can enter Menu Mode by pressing the
Enter
button. Afterwards the Main menu appears:
Load/Unload
Show Status Menu
Maintenance Menu
Configure Menu
NOTE:
If the control panel has been locked, the following screen appears instead of the
Default screen shown above. You must know the unlock code for the system before you
can proceed.
Front Panel Locked
ENTER to Unlock
ESCAPE to Exit
When you press the
Enter
button, the following screen appears:
Unlock Code
" "
Using the button and buttons, set the first digit of the unlock code. When
you have set it, press the
Enter
button to move the cursor to the second digit
and repeat the process. When you have finished, press the
Escape
button, then
the
Enter
button to confirm your entry. If the code is correct, the Main menu
appears. If the code is incorrect, an error screen appears.
