PLASMON L M S - LF 8600 USER MANUAL
Page 70
SETTING THE LOAD SWITCH OPTION
The load switch option enables the user to enable or disable the LOAD/MENU switch on the DOC. The
LOAD/MENU switch can be disabled to prevent accidentally spinning down a media cartridge. This also
prevents cartridge loading from the DOC, giving the host exclusive control of media loading.
Perform the following procedure to enable or disable the LOAD/MENU switch:
1. Enter the Configuration mode by pressing both the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT
switches simultaneously.
2. Press the MENU switch until "Set Config" is displayed.
3. Press the SELECT switch to enter the Set Configuration menu.
4. Press the MENU switch until "Load SW:" is displayed.
5. Press the SELECT switch to scroll through the states for the load switch (on, off). When the
desired state is displayed, press MENU to enter the state and move to the next option in the
Set Configuration menu.
6. Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches to move up to the Main
menu. Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches again to exit
Configuration mode.
SETTING THE READ AHEAD OPTION
The read ahead option often improves the overall read data transfer rate of the LF 8600 in applications
which require continuous blocks of data to be read (as compared to the same subsystem without read
ahead).
Perform the following procedure to turn read ahead on or off:
1. Enter the Configuration mode by pressing both the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT
switches simultaneously.
2. Press the MENU switch until "Set Config" is displayed.
3. Press the SELECT switch to enter the Set Configuration menu.
4. Press the MENU switch until "Rd Ahead:" is displayed.
5. Press the SELECT switch to scroll through the states for read ahead (off, on). When the
desired state is displayed, press MENU to enter the state and move to the next option in the
Set Configuration menu.
6. Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches to move up to the Main
menu. Simultaneously press the LOAD/MENU and TEST/SELECT switches again to exit
Configuration mode.
