| LCM Replacement Procedure for Spectra 64K, 20K, and 12K Libraries |
|
|
| The Library Control Module (LCM) is the front panel interface, which runs on a Windows CE mini-computer. It lets you configure library partitions and import and export tapes, and provides an Ethernet connection that is used for sending e-mail alerts and can be licensed for remote library control using the Remote Library Controller (RLC). The LCM also provides a floppy disk (older model) or a USB device (in models release starting 2/2006), turns on the library' s internal lighting and controls solenoid door locks. The LCM can be physically removed and/or inserted into the library while the library is powered on. In fact, the LCM can be completely removed from the library and backups will continue without incident.
