drive, the autoloader will unload that cartridge, place it back in the magazine,
and then load the selected cartridge.
7.4.3 Magazine Operations
The TLZ9L cassette tape autoloader supports three basic magazine
configurations. These configurations are 8, 7, and single-cartridge modes.
Any other number of cartridges is not supported and will cause the magazine
to eject. See Section 7.4.3.4 for the procedure on loading cartridges into the
magazine and Section 7.4.3.7 for the procedure on unloading cartridges from
the magazine.
7.4.3.1 Eight Cartridge Mode
In eight cartridge mode the magazine accommodates either eight data
cartridges or seven data cartridges and one cleaning cartridge. The sequence
in which the cartridges are inserted into the magazine determines the numbers
by which they are managed as indicated in Figure 7–5. The letter C indicates
the cleaning cartridge. If a cleaning cartridge is not used, the C slot can be
populated with the eighth data cartridge to provide the highest capacity per
magazine.
