Unlocking the mailslot (Unlock Mailslot)
The mailslot in the left magazine is used only with host system software that supports this feature. The
mailslot feature allows you to insert or remove a single tape without removing the entire magazine.
The benefit of using a mailslot is that the device will not inventory the rest of the slots in the magazine
so the device can return to service sooner. The mailslot is in the left magazine.
NOTE:
The Unlock Mailslot menu is only displayed when the mailslot is enabled. To enable the mailslot, see
“
Configuring the mailslot (Configuration > Configure Mailslot) ” on page 91
To access the mailslot:
1. From the Home screen, press Next until the screen displays Unlock Mailslot . Press Enter to select.
2. The mailslot ejects automatically. Pull the mailslot out to access the tape (see Figure 61 ).
3. The screen displays Close Mailslot .
4. Remove the tape cartridge from the mailslot and insert a different tape cartridge.
5. Push the magazine back into the device.
