demonstration programs, or run diagnostic tests.
The OCP is discussed in Using the OCP.

The green LED lights when the library is fully operational and ready to accept host
commands. It flashes while the library is transitioning from a READY state to a
NOT READY state. The library will not be READY during power-on self-tests, when
magazines are being released, or during access to certain menu items.
