 thanks for the replies, quite a few metoo requests.

  I did get the anthill driver to work. On the mm command there is an

 argument called invert. Document claims it is optional. But it is not.

 Always put a zero here. We have now incorporated this software into our

 scripts an it works very reliably.

 the anthill software is available from www.anthill.com.

 Jeff Dingbaum sent in the best suggestion. Check out:

Fermilab has developed a utility called juke that it uses on all of their

dlt units. You can read the abstract and have links to the docs and readmes

at:

        http://www-fermitools.fnal.gov/abstracts/juke.html

 I downloaded this and it is full featured , client server RPC based utility

 to control several jukebox changers. We will be investigating this further to

 incorporate it into our procedures.

 Several vendors indicated that they sell changer software. check out

 your favorite backup vendor or details.

 thanks for the help.
