HP Software Product Description ___________________________________________________________________ PRODUCT NAME: HP Media Robot Utility, Version 1.8A SPD 64.44.10 DESCRIPTION HP Media Robot Utility (MRU) is a multiplatform software utility that provides direct robotic control for HP DLT (Digital Linear Tape), Su- per DLT and 4mm (DAT) loaders, the TL8nn libraries, and the TKZ load- ers. This product provides the ability for the user to load a cartridge from a selected robot slot into a specified robot drive and unload the cartridge from the drive. It also provides the user the ability to move the cartridge from slot/drive/port to slot/drive/port if the hardware device qualifies the move. The commands qualified are: o Load-Moves a cartridge from slot to drive. o Unload-Moves a cartridge from drive to slot. o Inject-Moves a cartridge from port to slot. o Eject-Moves a cartridge from slot to port. o Move-Moves a cartridge from slot/drive/port to slot/drive/port as long as the hardware device qualifies the move. o Show-Displays information. o Ready-Allows opening the import mechanism door on member robots of the TL82x family of libraries. o Lock/Unlock-Prevents or allows media removal on robots that qual- ifies this feature. o Help-Displays information on the commands.
