Memory Tag
The cartridge serves a role in the following functions:
Memory tag
●
The memory tag is a non-volatile memory module in the cartridge and the DC controller controls it.
The memory tag stores information about usage for the cartridge and the DC controller reads and
writes the data in the memory tag. The DC controller determines a memory tag error and notifies
the formatter when it fails to either read from or write to the memory tag.
Cartridge-presence detection
●
The DC controller detects whether the cartridge is installed in the product by monitoring the
cartridge presence sensor. The DC controller notifies the formatter when it determines a cartridge
absence.
