Mailslots

Mailslots are used to import/export individual cartridges without interrupting library
operation. The time-consuming inventory of all the cartridges is consequently not required
when a magazine is inserted. Always use the mailslot to import/export cartridges.
Mailslots are always activated in BS2000 operation. Consequently 3 fewer slots are
available for storing cartridges in BS2000 operation. BS2000 can use 9 slots in the left-hand
magazine and 12 slots in the right-hand one.
As soon as the mailslots are enabled, the three associated slots are no longer visible from
BS2000, i.e. the
slots. These three slots are consequently not available to accommodate cartridges.
