DLT7000 problems
have a problematic DLT7000 drive here that will not accept the tape 9 times out of 10 (and getting worse). Loading a tape only turns the reels a bit forward and then back and stays there. When it sees the tape it does a lot of examination back and forth until settling down. The drive is a library type and thus I have no frontpanel LEDS
I have noticed though that the LED:s on the PCB labeled CNT_ACT and CNT_OK doesn't lit when the drive is failing.
I tried asking support for a service manual, but to no avail. Is there anyone out there that knows what the LED:s refer to? It would limit the search area quite a bit.
Best

Re: DLT7000 problems
Make sure it is at it's latest firmware, it can correct several mechanical issues, although it seems that the drive is breaking down.

Re: DLT7000 problems
Firmware upgrade cannot be done as this is in a library and latest supported firmware is already installed.

Re: DLT7000 problems
They can be done seperately using Library and Tape Tools.

Re: DLT7000 problems
This could happen to an old drive ...
Hope this helps!
