DAT Autoloader Installation Manual
Using the front-panel buttons
Using the "Step" button
The Step button allows the user to manually select any
cartridge in the magazine for insertion into the drive. When
you push this button, the cartridge currently in the drive is
returned to the magazine and the magazine is stepped to the
next slot in the magazine. If a cartridge is present in the next
slot, the 8-digit display will show the message "ESL n " where
n is the slot number of the cartridge. This cartridge is inserted
into the drive after a 5-second delay. This 5-second delay
provides time for you to change to a different slot if you wish
(by pressing the Step button again).
When the magazine is stepped beyond its last slot, it
automatically steps back to the first slot (slot 1).
Using the "Open/Close" button
The Open/Close button allows the user to eject the currently
loaded cartridge and to open or close the magazine drawer.
When a four-cartridge magazine is inserted (and the drawer
is closed), pushing the Open/Close Push-button causes the
current cartridge to be returned to the magazine and the
drawer to be released and automatically opened. The user
can then remove the magazine or change the settings of the
dip switches located inside the drawer.
