To remove the terminators, follow these steps:
1. Locate the terminators on the back of the tape drive.
2. Using a pair of flat-nose pliers, carefully grasp each terminator at

the center and pull it straight out. Be careful not to squeeze the
pliers too tightly or you may break the terminator. Save the unused
terminators in case you need to terminate the the bus at tape drive
later.
Note: To replace a terminator, make sure that pin 1 of the
terminator is aligned with pin 1 of the socket and that
no pins are bent. The writing on the terminator should
face upward. Pin 1 of the terminator is marked with a
colored line or dot and should line up with the right
side of the socket.
If you must replace a terminator, be sure to use the correct type
to avoid damaging the tape drive. Replacement terminators
are available from Exabyte.
