MEDIA CHANGER COMMANDS
The following MODE CODES are specified:
CODE
When the Inhibit Magazine Eject code is set, the Medium Changer does NOT eject the Magazine
upon either the receipt of a MOVE MEDIUM command that specifies move Import/Export Element
to Medium Transport Element (eject Magazine), or after processing the last cartridge in a Magazine
while in Automatic Mode. If Inhibit Magazine Eject is set when either of these situations occur, the
Magazine is moved to the first available cartridge (see Table 6-40 on page 6-34 for operation of car-
tridge unloading). If an ACL is attached, the Eject code is reported as changeable and defaults to a
value of 10b.
For an FACL, the Eject code is not supported. If an FACL is attached, the Eject code is reported as
NOT changeable on a MODE SENSE command and defaults to a value of zero. See Table 6-40 for
operation of cartridge unloading.

a) by depressing the START key after loading has been suspended in Automatic Mode or
b) by depressing the RESET key followed by the START key when the Medium Changer is in
