5. Inserting disc magazines
Any of the following methods may be used to insert discs
into the changer:
(1) Insert discs into a normal-type 50-disc magazine and then
insert the magazine into the changer.
(2) Insert discs into a 20-disc hyper magazine and then insert
the magazine into the changer.
(3) Use the control panel to specify the slot into which a disc
is to be inserted and transport a disc to the specified slot
from the mailslot.
(4) Issue some commands from the host computer to open
the mailslot and transport a disc to the specified slot from
the mailslot.
(5) Issue some commands from the host computer to move
discs in the loaded hyper magazine to some slots within
the loaded 50-disc magazines.
¶
Hyper magazine is not able to be inserted or removed when
the power to the changer is turned off.
¶
Methods (3) through (5) may be used after the changer is
ready for operation. When inserting discs in these
methods, always be sure to insert empty disc magazines
first.
Also note that methods (3) through (5) are used when
inserting locked-type 50-disc magazines. (See System
administrator mode: Mailslot submode on p. 36 for further
information.)
¶
Whether or not it is possible to use methods (4) and (5)
depends on the function of changer control software being
used, and you should check the manual which comes with
the software to check if it supports these methods to insert
discs.

insert the magazine into the changer.
