Setting the Write-Protect Switch
The position of the write-protect switch on the SLR5-4GB quarter-inch tape
cartridge determines when you can write to the tape (see Figure 15 on page 25).
When the switch is set to data cannot be written to the tape.
When the switch is set to data can be written to and read from the tape.
To set the switch, insert a small screwdriver into the arrow and gently turn it to the
desired position. The arrow must face one of the two directions shown in Figure 15
on page 25; do not leave it in any other position.
