Drive Comms Errror

Ive just swapped out a faulty autochanger drive in my HP1553A 6 slot changer and popped in a DDS-3 drive which is an HP1537A. Becuase the drive was a standalone drive previously it does not work in Autochanger mode. What do I need to do to make it so. I have used LT&T to update it to L111 but no joy. I can only see the tape unit, not the robot and I have "Drive Comms Error" on the LCD front panel.
