EXBT-8SC = 1,0x35,0,0xce39,2,0x15,0x8c,1;
IMPORTANT
If the effective tape-config-list has been defined, separate the above description with a
"," and add it to the file like the following example.
Tape-config-list =
"HP

HP_data2 = 1,0x34,1024,0xd639,4,0x00,0x13,0x24,0x3,3;
EXBT-8SC = 1,0x35,0,0xce39,2,0x15,0x8c,1;
