Operation

Inserting and Removing Tape Cartridges

The magazine must be removed from the ACL in order to remove or insert tape
cartridges. Make sure the slot you want to use is not already reserved for a tape
cartridge that is now in a tape drive. The safest way to do this is to unload all tape
drives before removing a magazine. You can unload the tape drive either through your
host system software or by using the Move Media option on the Default screen.

Removing the Magazine

You must manually remove the ACL magazine. To access the magazine, use the
Magazine Access option on the Default Screen. This option lets you open the left
magazine door. After opening the magazine door, pull the magazine out and away from
the ACL chassis.

Inserting Cartridges into the Magazine

A full magazine is shown in
one closest to the front of the magazine.
Insert a tape cartridge so that the barcode labels are facing outward.
Note. Handle and store tape cartridges in a clean, dust-free environment.
