GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Plasmon Infinity LF 6602 RapidChanger is a cabinet configuration, housing two LF 6600
RapidChanger drives side-by-side, as shown in the next figure.
EP006028
LF 6602 Configuration
Each LF 6600 drive is a write once read many (WORM), high-capacity, optical disk drive with an integral
shuttle, capable of holding up to six LM 6000/LM 4000 media cartridges. The integral shuttle moves
laterally to position one of the media cartridges for automated loading and unloading into the optical drive.
The LF 6602 provides 24 GBytes of online storage and up to 144 GBytes of nearline storage. Each LF
6602 provides 12 GBytes of online storage and up to 72 GBytes of nearline storage. Each LM 6000 media
cartridge has a capacity of 12 GBytes.
A Drive Operator Console (DOC) located on the front panel of each drive provides user control of drive
operation and configuration as explained in the Operating Instruction section of this manual. Operating
messages are presented on the alphanumeric display in English, French or German. The language used is
selectable.
Each drive's front panel includes a lockable media access door to provide operator access to the shuttle
and media cartridges.

The Auxiliary Diagnostic Port (ADP), located on the rear panel of each drive, can be used to download
updates to the drive firmware in the field. Refer to the LD 6100/LF 6600/LF 6602 Product Specification
(P/N 97653977) for more information.
Each LF 6602 drive supports a sustained read transfer rate of 2.7 MBytes/sec with error correction and
defect management capabilities to maintain data integrity and manage media flaws. Each LF 6600
implements the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) via standard SCSI-2 micro-connectors located
on the rear panels. Single-ended and differential interface options are available, and the interface can be
changed in the field. Both the single-ended and differential controllers support asynchronous or
synchronous data transfer operations.
Preventive maintenance for the LF 6602 is minimal (refer to the Operator Maintenance section). Corrective
maintenance is simplified by internal diagnostic firmware which detects, isolates, and reports malfunctions
to the operator and identifies the faulty Field Replaceable Unit (FRU).
LM 6000 media is interchangeable between the LF 6602, LF 6600 and the LD 6100. The 6000 series of
drives will also read LM 4000 media written by the Plasmon LMS 4000 series of optical drive products
(except for media with serial numbers less than X0010000, where X designates an A or B).

AC GROUND
The LF 6602 chassis must be connected to earth ground for operator safety. The AC power cord has a
grounding conductor which connects the LF 6602 chassis to safety ground through the site AC power
system. If the site AC system ties its ground wire connection to earth ground, then the LF 6602 chassis will
also be tied to earth ground. All site AC power connections must be maintained on the same safety
ground.
A line grounding connector located on the rear panel of each LF 6600 can also be used to tie the drive
chassis to earth ground. These ground connectors are 6-mm (0.24-in.) M4 with a nut and lock washer.
AC POWER CORD
The type of AC power cord supplied with the LF 6602 will depend upon the configuration ordered.
POWER SUPPLY OUT-OF-RANGE PROTECTION FEATURES
Each LF 6600 power supply provides over and under voltage protection, over current protection, power
failure detection and over temperature protection. Should an out-of-range condition occur, each LF 6600
detects it and shuts down the DC outputs of the power supply.
NOTE
After the situation is corrected, power can be restored by turning the
AC power switch to the off position, waiting 1 sec and then turning the
power switch to the on position again.
TILT RANGE
The LF 6602 is not designed for use when tilted from the vertical position.
HEAT DISSIPATION
The LF 6602 cabinet will typically represent a heat load of 292 kg-calories/hr (1160 BTU/hr) during a read/
write operation. When media cartridges are inserted, loaded, spun up, spun down, unloaded and removed
at each drive's maximum rate, the LF 6602 will typically represent a heat load of 364 kg-calories/hr (1450
BTU/hr).
PARTICULATE LIMITS
The LF 6602 is designed for use in an office or computer room. The environment must have a low dust
level. Each drive filters incoming air for cooling to reduce the quantity of particles entering the drive;
however, the filters are not effective against small particles (including tobacco smoke). These particles will
become deposited on optical components and media, causing a degradation in drive performance. Refer
to the Operator Maintenance section for media cleaning and air filter cleaning instructions.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The LF 6602 is shipped as a complete assembly, ready for cable connection and power up. No tools are
required for the basic installation.
CAUTION
Remove the foam shipping block from each of the shuttle assemblies
before powering on the LF 6600 drives.
Ensure that the internal temperature within the cabinet does not exceed the operating limits as described
in the Product Specification (P/N 97653977) and this document.
The LF 6602 must be connected to a power distribution system that has a direct connection to earth
ground (Terminated Terra [TT] network/ground connected). This unit is not suitable for use on a floating
ground (Interrupted Terra [IT] network). Ensure the drive is connected to a power distribution system with
an adequate current-handling capacity.
Before you install the LF 6602, provide for the clearances as listed in the table below to ensure that future
servicing can be performed safely and to properly ventilate the LF 6602. Clearances are also necessary to
provide operator access to the DOC panels and to the media access doors for loading and unloading
media.

WARNING
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the LF 6602 to rain or
moisture. Refer servicing to qualified technicians.
In case of fire or other emergency, isolate the units from the main
power by disconnecting the power plugs from their site power
receptacles. In situations where disconnecting the plugs is not
possible or practical, disconnect the system main power to isolate the
units from the main power.
Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous laser
radiation.
Do not stare directly into the laser beam or its reflection on any
reflecting mirror-like surface. Invisible laser radiation can be emitted if
the unit is open and safety interlocks are defeated.
SCSI BUS CONSIDERATIONS
Because the SCSI bus is limited to eight devices including the host, a maximum of three LF 6602's can be
connected to a host computer in a series configuration using the appropriate SCSI controller and cable
options.
The length of the SCSI interface cables used to interconnect the LF 6602 with other SCSI devices is
dictated by the type of SCSI controller installed in each LF 6600 drive.
When the single-ended interface controller is used on all SCSI devices, the total length of the SCSI
interface cable cannot exceed 6 m(19.5 ft). (Plasmon LMS does not recommend single-ended fast
synchronous.) When a differential interface controller is used on all SCSI devices, the total SCSI interface
cable length cannot exceed 25 m (82 ft).
NOTE
The internal SCSI cable for each LF 6600 is approximately 120 mm
(4.8 in.). The SCSI cable connecting the LF 6600's is 105 cm (3 1/2 ft).
These distances must be considered as part of the total SCSI cable
length.
No stub connections are permitted.
The SCSI interface cabling used to interconnect an LF 6602 to a host can be daisy chained between SCSI
devices as illustrated in the next figure. One interface cable is required to interface each pair of SCSI
devices.

The SCSI bus must also be
terminated at the host
adapter end. Normally, the
termination function is built
into the host adapter.
TERMINATOR
EP006089
Host-to-LF 6602 Daisy Chain Cable Connections
A terminator must always be installed on the vacant connector of the last SCSI device in the SCSI bus.
The SCSI bus must always be terminated externally on the rear panel of an LF 6600 when an LF 6602 is
the last SCSI device on the bus.
NOTE
You must first determine the type of termination your host system
In a daisy chain configuration, a terminator must be used on both the first and last devices on the bus. One
of these devices may be the host adapter.
All other LF 6602's between the first and last device in the daisy chain should
not be terminated.
NOTE
Installation of both an active single-ended terminator and a passive
single-ended terminator on the same bus is not recommended.
If only one LF 6602 is attached to a host, the bus must be terminated at the host adapter and the LF 6602
host computer (refer to the next figure).

CONNECTING POWER AND SCSI CABLING
After the LF 6602 has been installed in its operating location, the primary AC power cord and host SCSI
interface cabling can be connected. The type of primary AC power cord being installed depends upon the
installation location.
Perform the following procedure to install the power cabling on an LF 6602:
1) Unlock and open the LF 6602's rear door.
2) Ensure that each drive's AC power cord is securely connected to the power socket strip
(see figure below).
POWER
SOCKET
STRIP
EP006031

3) Ensure facility power is available and the primary AC power cord connector (male end) will
match the site AC power wall outlet.
4) Ensure that the AC power switches on the drives' rear panels are set to the OFF ( O )
position.
5) Plug the primary AC power cord connector (female end) into the LF 6602's power strip.
Each drive has two SCSI connectors on the rear panel that are used to interface the drive with other SCSI
devices (see the next figure). The lower SCSI I/O connector is normally used as the input port and the
upper connector is used as the output port.

When only one LF 6602 is being interconnected with a host, one of the SCSI interface cables is connected
to the lower connector of the first drive. A terminator is connected to the lower connector of the second
drive to terminate the bus when the LF 6602 is the last or only SCSI device on a SCSI bus.
SINGLE-DEVICE CONFIGURATION
To connect SCSI cables and a terminator on a single LF 6602:
1) Plug one end of the SCSI interface cable into the vacant SCSI interface connector on the
host.
2) Route the other end of the SCSI interface cable from the host, under the LF 6602's cabinet
and up to the lower connector of the first drive. Install the cable into that connector.
3) Ensure that the shorter Plasmon LMS-supplied SCSI cable connecting the two drives is
securely fastened to the connectors. This cable connects from the first drive's upper
connector to the second drive's upper connector.
4) Install a SCSI terminator into the lower connector of the second drive.

MULTIPLE-DEVICE CONFIGURATION
To connect SCSI cables and a terminator, if necessary, in a multiple LF 6602 configuration, refer to the
Single Device Configuration section and connect the SCSI cables according to steps 1 through 3).
If the LF 6602 is part of a daisy chain configuration and is not the last unit in the chain, install one end of a
SCSI interface cable into the lower connector of the second drive and then install the other end of the
cable into the connector of the next device in the chain. Repeat this process until you reach the last SCSI
device in the daisy chain.
A terminator must be installed on the second drive's lower connector of the last LF 6602 in a daisy chain.
The SCSI bus must also be terminated at the host adapter when the host occupies the last position on the
bus.
Power for the external terminators can also be supplied by either drive in the LF 6602 cabinet or another
device in the SCSI daisy chain. It is very important that the SCSI bus is terminated at both ends in
accordance with the LD 6100/LF 6600/LF 6602 SCSI Specification (P/N 97653978).
CONNECTOR VERIFICATION
Prior to powering on the system:
1) Verify proper termination at the host adapter, if applicable.
2) Verify proper termination at the last LF 6602 on the bus, if applicable.
CAUTION
Ensure that the foam shipping blocks have been removed from the
shuttle assemblies before powering on the drives.
Refer to the Operating Instruction section in this manual for the power-on procedure.

TEST MODE
Each LF 6600 automatically enters the Test mode each time it is powered on. Power-on selftest
diagnostics are run to verify the operational readiness of the drive.
After the LF 6600 successfully passes the power-on selftests, the drive enters the Operating mode. When
the LF 6600 is in the Operating mode, the operator may manually enter the Test mode and invoke the
system function diagnostics.
The level of selftest diagnostic coverage is configurable via the "Test Thru:" option in the Diagnostics
menu. Lower level tests (numbers 0 through 6) verify basic drive hardware operation.
When errors are detected, the appropriate diagnostic message will be displayed on the DOC. Diagnostic
messages are presented to the operator in the form of failed test codes and Field Replaceable Unit (FRU)
mnemonics that can be relayed to a CE for repairing the malfunction.
If no problems are detected by the system function diagnostics, the display will show "Diagnostics
Complete. Press TEST to restart drive...".
Pressing TEST resets "Test Thru:" value to 00 and initiates selftest option. At the successful completion of
this selftest, the LF 6600 is returned to the operating mode, ready for normal operation.

MEDIA LOADING
Individual media cartridges can be selected for loading by host command or by the autoload configuration
option. The host can select and load a media cartridge from any shuttle slot by issuing an appropriate
SCSI bus command.
Selection by the autoload configuration option occurs at initial power up and when the LOAD/MENU switch
on the DOC is pressed while the LF 6600 is in Operating mode. Depending on the setting of the autoload
option, the LF 6600 automatically inserts and loads one specified media cartridge or the most recently
used (MRU) cartridge or moves the shuttle to the home position.
If the selected cartridge is not present, the DOC displays "# Empty", where # represents cartridges 1-6.
For more information on viewing and setting drive configuration options, refer to the Configuration Mode
section of this manual.

2) Pull off the cabinet's trim panel (see next figure).
3) Press down on the front release levers of one drive's rack mount slide and pull the drive
out, away from the cabinet.
An interlock is incorporated into the design of the LF 6602's front panel to allow the extension of only one
drive at a time. If the interlock is defeated and if both drives are extended simultaneously on their rack
mount slides, the cabinet will become unbalanced and will topple over.

OUTER FAN
GRIL HALF
EP006088
Removing Filter Element from Fan
Inspect the Filters at the rear of the drive on a 1 - 6 month schedule and clean, if necessary, to ensure that
cooling air flow is not restricted. If the drive is exposed to excessive amounts of dust, decrease the time
between inspection intervals.
Remove dust on the drive's exterior with a dry, lint-free cloth. Dust can migrate to the media cartridge and
cause performance degradation.
CAUTION
Failure to maintain a clean Filter Element can reduce air flow through
the drive. This will create high temperatures in each LF 6600 which
may shorten the life of the drive.
97654438 E

Perform the following procedure to clean the fan filter elements:
1) Unlock and open the cabinet door.
2) Set each drive's AC power switch to the OFF ( O ) position and verify that the fan and
blower have stopped running.
3) Remove each Outer Grill Half by grasping its sides and pulling it away from the chassis.
4) Remove each Filter Element by pulling it away from the inside of the Grill.
5) Wash each Filter Element in warm soapy water.
6) Rinse each Element thoroughly and let it air dry.
7) Re-install each Filter Element in the Outer Grill Half.
8) Replace the Outer Grill Half by snapping it onto the Inner Grill half.
REPLACING FUSES
As stated in the AC Power Requirement section of this manual, two fuses and two spare fuses are
integrated into the power receptacle on the rear panel of each LF 6600 (refer the next figure). If the drive
will not power up, one or both of the fuses may have blown.
To replace a blown fuse with a spare fuse for each drive:
1) Set the drive's AC power switch to the OFF ( O ) position and remove the AC power cord.
2) Insert a small, flat-blade screwdriver between the fuse holder and the receptacle housing,
as shown in the next figure.

3) Gently pry the fuse holder open. Slide the fuse holder out of the receptacle and visually
inspect the active fuse to determine if it is blown. If the active fuse is blown, proceed to
step 4); otherwise, proceed to 5).
4) Remove the active fuse and discard it. Remove the spare fuse from its storage location
and insert the fuse between the fuse housing and the retaining clip.
5) Re-install the fuse holder into the receptacle, sliding the holder into the receptacle until the
holder is aligned flush with the receptacle housing.
6) Refer to the Power -On Procedure section.
7) If power is not restored, check the other fuse.
WARNING
If a spare fuse blows immediately after you have replaced the original
fuse, contact your next level of support.
Do not replace the spare fuse.
This may be a symptom of a more serious problem, either with the
drive's power supply or with the system power.

WECHSELSTROMBEDARF
Der primäre Netzkabeltyp hängt von der bestellten Konfiguration für den LF 6602 ab. Das primäre
Netzkabel versorgt die Steckdosenleiste im Gehäuse des LF 6602 mit Strom.
Jeder LF 6602 ist über ein geerdetes Netzkabel an die Steckdosenleiste angeschlossen. Beim LF 6600 ist
der Verbindungstecker in die Netzsteckdose integriert. Schutz gegen Überlaststrom wird durch zwei
Sicherungen gewährleistet, die zusammen mit zwei Reservesicherungen in die Netzsteckdose integriert
sind. Das Netzteil jedes Laufwerks erfordert die in Tabelle 3 angegebenen Netzspannungen.

HINWEIS
Nach Ausschalten des Stroms müssen Sie 1 Sekunde warten, bevor
der Strom wieder eingeschaltet werden darf.
WECHSELSTROMERDUNG
Um einen sicheren Betrieb zu gewährleisten, muß das Gehäuse des LF 6602 geerdet sein. Das
Wechselstromkabel enthält eine Erdleitung, die das Gehäuse des LF 6602 durch die
Wechselstromversorgung des Standorts an Sicherheitserde legt. Die Wechselstromversorgung des
Standorts wiederum muß diese Erdung an einen Erdanschluß legen. Alle Wechselstromverbindungen am
Standort müssen denselben Erdanschluß verwenden.
Ein Erdanschlußteil an der Geräterückseite (vgl. Abschnitt 2.2.) kann ebenfalls dazu verwendet werden,
den LF 6600 an einen Erdanschluß zu legen. Dieser Erdanschlußteil ist ein 6 mm M4-Bolzen mit Mutter
und Sicherungsscheibe.
KIPPTOLERANZ
Ermöglicht den Kippbetrieb von der waagrechten Stellung.
WÄRMEAUSSTRAHLUNG
Das Gehäuse des LF 6602 weist während eines Schreib-/Lesevorgangs eine typische Wärmebelastung
von 292 kcal/h (1160 BTU/h) auf. Wenn Datenträgerkassetten mit der Maximalgeschwindigkeit des
Laufwerks eingelegt, geladen, aktiviert, deaktiviert, entladen und entfernt werden, beträgt die typische
Wärmebelastung des LF 6602 ungefähr 364 kcal/h (1450 BTU/h).
WARNHINWEISE
Der LF 6602 ist als Lasergerät eingestuft und unterliegt den US-amerikanischen Anforderungen bezüglich
Lasergeräte. Die in Abbildung 5 dargestellten Warnhinweise sind erforderlich, um den US-
Bundesvorschriften nachzukommen. Diese Warnhinweise dürfen nicht von den Laufwerken im Gehäuse
des LF 6602 entfernt werden.

HANDHABUNG VON DATENTRÄGERKASSETTEN
Achten Sie bei der Handhabung und Lagerung von Datenträgerkassetten auf die folgenden
Vorsichtsmaßnahmen, um die Datenintegrität zu sichern.
1) Die Datenträgerkassette niemals auf harte Flächen fallen lassen.
2) Das Kassettengehäuse oder den Zugriffsmechanismus nicht mißbrauchen.
3) Die Datenträgerkassette nicht im Laufwerk lagern.
4) Die Kassetten vor einem Transport aus dem Laufwerk entfernen.
5) Etiketten nur an den vorgesehenen Stellen anbringen. Anweisungen zum Anbringen von
Etiketten befinden sich in Abschnitt 5.4.2.
6) Die Datenträgerkassette vor direkter Sonneneinstrahlung und Kondensation schützen.
VORSICHT
Zur Vermeidung einer Beschädigung der Datenträger wird dringendst
empfohlen, die in der Spezifikation für LM 6000-Datenträger
(Bestellnr. 97647044) angegebenen Umgebungsbeschränkungen
sorgfältig zu beachten.
7) Die Datenträgerkassette nicht extremen Temperaturen aussetzen.
8) Die Datenträgerkassette eine Stunde vor Gebrauch auf den angegebenen
Betriebstemperaturbereich stabilisieren.
9) Die Zugangsabdeckung des Datenträgers nicht öffnen.
10) Die Plattenoberfläche nicht durch die Zugangsabdeckung berühren.
11) Die Magnetplatte nicht aus der Kassette herausnehmen.

12) Die Datenträgerkassetten in einer sauberen Büroumgebung benutzen, handhaben und
lagern.
13) Während der Handhabung von Datenträgern nicht rauchen. Asche und Tabak sind eine
Hauptquelle für die Verunreinigung von Magnetplatten. Alle Rauchutensilien sind aus
den Bereichen fernzuhalten, in denen Datenträger benutzt oder gelagert werden.
14)
14) Die Außenflächen der Kassetten sauber halten. Die Kassetten regelmäßig mit
einem weichen, trockenen, fusselfreien Tuch reinigen.Weitere Informationen zur Pflege
und Handhabung von Datenträgern finden Sie in der Spezifikation für den LM 6000-
Datenträger (Bestellnr. 97647044).
WARNUNG
Setzen Sie die Verriegelung des LF 6602 nicht außer Kraft, und
öffnen Sie nicht beide Laufwerke gleichzeitig.
VORSICHT
Wenn die Gebläsefilterelemente nicht sauber gehalten werden, kann
die Luftzirkulation im Laufwerk beeinträchtigt werden. Dies kann zu
einem übermäßigen Temperaturanstieg und damit zu einer
Beschädigung der Laufwerke führen.
AUSWECHSELN VON SICHERUNGEN
Wie in Abschnitt 2.6. des vorliegenden Handbuchs dargestellt, sind zwei Sicherungen und zwei
Ersatzsicherungen in die Netzbuchse an der Geräterückseite des LF 6600 eingebaut (vgl. Abbildung 40).
Wenn sich das Laufwerk nicht einschalten läßt, könnte eine oder beide Sicherungen durchgebrannt sein.
So tauschen Sie eine durchgebrannte Sicherung gegen eine Ersatzsicherung aus:
1) Stellen Sie den Wechselstromschalter des Laufwerks auf AUS (0), und ziehen Sie das
Netzkabel ab.
2) Fügen Sie einen kleinen Flachschraubenzieher zwischen dem Sicherungshalter und dem
Gehäuse der Buchse ein (vgl. Abbildung 40).

3) Öffnen Sie den Sicherungshalter vorsichtig. Ziehen Sie den Sicherungshalter aus der
Buchse heraus und überprüfen Sie die aktive Sicherung, um festzustellen, ob sie
durchgebrannt ist. Wenn die Sicherung durchgebrannt ist, fahren Sie mit Schritt 4) fort,
ansonsten mit Schritt 5).
4) Entfernen Sie die aktive Sicherung und entsorgen Sie sie. Nehmen Sie die
Ersatzsicherung aus deren Aufbewahrungsort und fügen Sie die Sicherung zwischen
dem Sicherungsgehäuse und der Halteklammer ein.
5) Installieren Sie den Sicherungshalter wieder in der Buchse; schieben Sie dabei den Halter
in die Buchse, bis der Halter bündig auf das Gehäuse der Buchse ausgerichtet ist.
6) Wenn die Stromversorgung nicht wiederhergestellt wird, prüfen Sie die andere Sicherung.
WARNUNG
Sollte eine Ersatzsicherung unmittelbar nach dem Ersetzen der
Originalsicherung entfallen, dürfen Sie diese Sicherung nicht mehr
ersetzen.
Wenden Sie sich an die nächste Stufe technischer Unterstützung.
Dies könnte das Symptom eines schwerwiegenderen Problems sein,
das entweder am Netzteil des Laufwerks oder in der Stromversorgung
liegt.
