cartridge from being inserted incorrectly.
(4)
Repeat this procedure until all tape cartridges have been
loaded into the magazine(s).
Note:
You can remove a tape cartridge in the same
manner as you insert it. Use the dials on the magazine
to line up the desired tape cartridge with one of the
openings on the other side of the magazine. Then, using
your thumb and index finger, pull out the cartridge.
You will feel a little resistance as you begin to pull but
continue until the cartridge comes free.
Handle
c.
Install the magazine(s) into the SuperLoader.
(1)
Grasp the magazine by the handle with one hand and
support it from underneath with the other hand.
(2)
Position the magazine correctly in the SuperLoader. The
magazine can only be inserted into the SuperLoader in
the correct orientation.
(3)
Push the magazine in until it clicks and locks into place.

Repeat this procedure to install a second magazine as
appropriate.
The SuperLoader performs an auto-inventory of the
tape cartridges in the magazine(s). Once completed, the
SuperLoader is ready for normal operation.

Note:
These instructions are for both the SuperLoader
LTO and SuperLoader DLT due to the nature of
their similarities. Many component parts are not
interchangeable. These include the magazines, cartridges,
drive carrier assembly, magazine blank, magazine handle,
and the barcode scanner. Please order the appropriate
part numbers when replacing these items.
Caution:
When removing magazines or blanks, be
certain that no robotic operations are in process.
Failure to do so will stop the robot.
