836.0. "IMPDATNIN?" by CSC32::S_WASKEWICZ () Fri May 23 1997 20:52

    
    Anybody ever here of an RW531 coming up with this front panel message?:
      " IMPDATNIN "
    According to Field Service, they attached an NEC SCSI CD-ROM drive to
    the same bus, and all of a sudden their previously quiet RW531 has this
    message.
    
    Although apparently not our problem here, I'm wondering where these 
    multitudes of firmware messages are coming from, and are they documented 
    somewhere?

Steve,

    I suggest this customer IPMT this so that we can get an official answer.  Do
they have DEC 0.37 Firmware?

836.3Thanks anyways...CSC32::S_WASKEWICZWed May 28 1997 15:1011
    
    I don't know about the firmware level. 
         The field service engineer just had them remove the NEC device, 
    and since the problem went away, field service left the site. 
    It was just an "oh by the way, what does this mean?" call to us at the 
    support center.
    With DBD well under way, its highly unlikely we can dispatch anybody out to
    that site unless theres a real problem. 
    
    Thanks anyways,
