The CHM picks cartridges from the magazine
sequentially and processes them in CTS 1 (the rightmost
CTS in the tabletop and rack-mounted units or the
topmost CTS in the tower unit.)
The CHM picks cartridges from the magazine
sequentially and processes them in CTS 2 (the leftmost
CTS in the tabletop and rack-mounted units or the
bottommost CTS in the tower unit.)
The CHM picks cartridges from the magazine
sequentially and processes them (tape cartridges 1-5
