Emergency Eject Feature
Attention: This procedure may result in loss of data.
The 7206 Tape Drive includes an emergency eject and reset feature that releases the
tape cartridge and resets the drive. Use the feature if the cartridge does not move
properly or if the unload process fails.
To perform an emergency eject of the tape cartridge or a reset of the drive, press
and hold the unload button for at least 5 seconds. If a cartridge is in the drive, it
automatically ejects without rewinding.
