Check that the Tape LED and Clean LED are both out.
When the Tape LED is lit, this means that a data cartridge is already inserted.

Insert the data cartridge straight into the DAT drive.
Once the data cartridge is partially inserted, it will be automatically drawn into the DAT drive.
3
When loading of the tape is complete, the Tape LED lights to indicate that DAT drive is ready for accessing.

The tape is rewound and unloaded. The Tape LED will blink during this operation.
When the tape has finished being rewound the data cartridge is ejected.
It can take up to 120 seconds for a data cartridge to be ejected. After the tape is ejected, the Tape LED goes
out.
