Hello,
Has anyone ever seen a situation where a TK70 tape drive loads and unload=
s =
tapes finely when not connected to the controller, but when you connect i=
t to =
the TQK70, it makes a clicking sound every 30 seconds or so, and refuses =
to =
operate at all? If so, could you kindly tell what is failing? My hardware=
, my =
cabling or what? I have a KA640 CPU on the first slot of qbus, a 16MB mem=
ory =
board on the second and nothing at all on the rest. Except the TQK70, whi=
ch =
I've tried to use in many different locations along the bus. It should be=
on =
upper half if I understood the docu properly, but wherever I put it, it j=
ust =
plainly refuses to work. 'SHOW QBUS' shows it up properly but it can't se=
e the =
tape drive. All ideas and suggestions are welcome.
Best regards,
