Write-protecting a Cartridge
Cartridges can be write-protected by sliding the tab on the back of the
cartridge. In this state, data can be read from the tape but not written onto it.
Using a Cleaning Cartridge
To keep the AIT drive in top condition, clean the head as needed using a
head cleaning cartridge with the AIT logo. When the head needs cleaning,
the CLEANING REQUEST indicator lights.
How to Clean
1
Load the head cleaning cartridge (SDX1-CL) into the AIT
drive. Cleaning starts automatically.
2
After about 15 seconds, cleaning will stop and the cartridge
will be ejected automatically.
Caution
Do not rewind the cleaning cartridge and reuse it. When you reach the end of
the cartridge, dispose it and buy a new cleaning cartridge with the AIT logo.
Storage Precautions
• Keep cartridges in their cases when not in the drives.
• Avoid storing cartridges in dusty locations, in direct sunlight, near heaters
or air conditioners, or in humid locations.
• Do not place cartridges on dashboards or in car storage trays.
