You did not select the
Density Select button
The lights show the actual density when the tape is
reading or writing. The lights are on steady and the
Density Override light is off.
You select the Density
Select button, and if the
actual tape density is
the same as the density
you selected
The actual density and Density Override light. For
example, if the actual tape density is 10.0 GB and
the selected tape density is 10.0 GB, then the light
next to 10.0 is on.
You select the Density
Select button, and if the
actual tape density
differs from the density
selected
1. The light with the actual density is on steady
2. The light with the selected density blinks
3. Density Override lights steady
For example, if the actual tape density is 10.0 GB
and the selected density is 6.0 GB, the 10.0 lights
steady, 6.0 light blinks, and Density Override lights
steady.
To select density over the SCSI bus:
1. Do a SCSI MODE SELECT with the density you want. For more details, see
Chapter 8.
2. Write data to the tape from BOT.
