If they are not installed, you will have received, separately, a License Key Certificate containing instructions on how to retrieve your license key from the Quantum Web site. Once you have retrieved your license key, you may add it now or any time later. (If you did not receive your License Key Certificate, contact Quantum Support. ) Figure 11 Setup Wizard ­ Licenses Screen Turning the Library ON and Configuring Network Settings 11 Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 Quick Start Guide Do one of the following: · To accept the settings and go to the next step, press Accept. You can only change the settings if you have a new license key to enter. If you have a license key, press Add, then enter the license key using the directional buttons as described in Step 5 on page 10 and press Accept when complete. If you need to add another license key, perform the Change operation again. 8 The Current Configuration screen appears, displaying the default number of partitions, I/E station slots, and cleaning slots (see Figure 12). Figure 12 Setup Wizard ­ Current Configuration Screen Do one of the following: · To accept the current settings, press Accept. This will delete the current partitions, and you are asked to confirm you want to do this. If you agree, the library deletes the partitions, which takes about 30 seconds. When the partitions are deleted, you are guided through several more screens to change the number of partitions, I/E station slots, and cleaning slots. Use the directional buttons as described in Step 5 on page 10 and press Accept when complete. · Partitions -- The minimum number of partitions you can create using the operator panel is equal to the number of distinct combinations of tape drive interface type (Fibre Channel or SAS) and media generation (LTO-4, LTO-5) of the currently installed tape drives. The maximum number of partitions you can create is equal to the number of tape drives installed in the library. You can change resource allocation and configure partitions with more flexibility later via the Web client. For details, see the Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User's Guide. · I/E Station Slots -- You can create a maximum of five I/E station slots on a Scalar i40 and a maximum of ten on a Scalar i80. Be aware that if you configure zero I/E station slots, you will not be able to import and export tape cartridges. · Cleaning Slots -- You can configure a minimum of zero and a maximum of four cleaning slots. For more information about cleaning slots, see the Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User's Guide. 12 Turning the Library ON and Configuring Network Settings Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 9 The Setup Wizard is complete (see Figure 13).

Quantum-supplied barcode labels provide the best results (labels are packaged along with your library). Barcode labels supplied by other sources can be used, but they must meet specific requirements (for details, see the "Barcode Requirements" section of the Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User's Guide). 4 Close the magazine by pushing it in until it stops. The robot will move to the I/E station and scan the newly installed tape cartridges. [. . . ]
