Environmental Considerations
For best performance of your VLS, please observe the following guidelines:
❐
If you expose cassettes to temperatures outside the operating limits – 40-113°F (5-
40°C) – stabilize them by leaving the cassettes in the operating temperature for a
minimum of two hours before you use them.
❐
Avoid temperature problems by ensuring that the VLS's side and rear are not
obstructed so that the drive has adequate ventilation.
❐
Position the VLS where the temperature is relatively stable (i.e., away from open
windows, fan heaters, and doors).
❐
Avoid leaving cassettes in severe temperature conditions, for example, in a car
standing in bright sunlight.
❐
Avoid transferring data (reading from and writing to cassettes) when the
temperature is changing by more than 15°F (10°C) per hour.
