Ensure that all cartridge surfaces are dry and that the leader pin is in place (see
1
in Figure 51) before you load the cartridge.
While the cleaning is in process, the 8-character message display on the drive
shows the message,
CLEAN*
.
The IBM TotalStorage 3592 Enterprise Cleaning Cartridge contains a cartridge
memory (CM) device that automatically keeps track of the number of times it has
been used. Cleaning cartridges need to be replaced after 50 uses. Automatic
cleaning is only available if the appropriate cleaning cartridges are installed in the
library and have remaining use.
The physical characteristics of the 3592 cleaning cartridge distinguish it from the
3592 data cartridge. The product label on the top of the cartridge is white, with the
word
CLEANING
printed on it. In place of the write-protect switch, there is a
non-moveable light gray block (see
1
in Figure 52). If you order cleaning
cartridges with pre-attached labels, the first three characters of the volume serial
(VOLSER) number
2
are
CLN
. The cartridge door (see
1
183) is also light gray.
