Unload Tape from DAT Tape Drive Unit

OVERVIEW
This procedure contains steps to unload a tape cartridge from the DAT tape drive unit.
PROCEDURE
1. Check the LEDs on the tape drive front panel to make sure you do not abort a
tape drive activity.
Caution: Do not press the unload button while the drive is in motion as
this will interrupt the drive's ability to accurately store the data. Wait
until the green LED is on and not blinking before pressing the unload
button.
2. If green LED is blinking, wait for tape to stop.
3. Press the UNLOAD button on the front panel of the tape drive and hold it down
for at least one full second, or until the green LED starts flashing.
4. Within 90 seconds, the drive rewinds the tape, ejects the cartridge and the green
LED will stop flashing and remain off. If the cartridge does not eject after 90
seconds, execute the Emergency Tape Ejection procedure. See "Emergency Tape
1
Ejection (Netra t 1120, Netra 20, Netra 240)", Procedure 4.21.
