The bulk TAP carousel(s) rotate to face the outside of the library and the door
release button LEDs turn solid green.
1. Press the button to open the bulk TAP door (see Figure 150 on page 240).

CAUTION!
When you place a magazine in the bulk TAP, make sure that the
textured surface on each side of the magazine is toward the inside of the
library and that the guides on the sides of the magazine fit into the media
guides on the media shelf, as shown in
magazines incorrectly or at an angle can result in damage to the carousel or
the robotics.
3. Close the bulk TAP door firmly by pressing at the top and bottom. An
audible click indicates that the door is latched closed. The TeraPorter moves
the magazines to the chambers specified in the move queue.
Note:
If you fail to close the door within 10 minutes, the import operation
times out.
4. If there are additional chambers listed in the move queue, the process
continues until all of the chambers are filled or until you select the Stop
Importing option on the Import/Export TeraPack Magazines screen. When all
of the chambers are full, the process stops automatically and the Import/
Export TeraPack Magazines screen displays.
The TeraPorter retrieves the magazines in the move queue and places them in
the bulk TAP carousel(s). When all of the magazines in the move queue have
been retrieved or when the shelves are full, the bulk TAP carousel rotates to the
unload position and the door release button LED is solid green.
Note:
If you take more than 10 minutes to press the door release button to
open the door, the LED turns off and the carousel rotates to face the interior of
the library. The library considers the move complete. When you attempt the
next import or export operation, the library will require you to remove the
magazines before you can proceed.

continues until all of the magazines in the list have been exported or until
you select the Stop Exporting option on the Import/Export TeraPack
Magazines screen. When all of the magazines have been exported, the
process stops automatically and the Import/Export TeraPack Magazines
screen displays.
