I and a colleague  tried for years to get one of these to work automatically and never got it working. Years earlier I had a Quantum Loader that never skipped a beat. We wound up using the web interface. Best of luck with your project.

Hum... Last time I used an autoloader, around 1999, it was working out of the 
box...
I see 3 devices: the loader, and 2 drives...
Do you mean there is really only 1 drive?
