4.
You can use the drive's control panel at various times, not just after loading a
tape. Density selection is inactive until the write from BOT command is issued.
The controller remembers the density selection state until you do one of the
following:
•
Change the density selection
•
Unload the tape
Density Select Example
If you have loaded a tape with a prerecorded 2.6 GB density and you use the Density
Select button to select 10.0 GB density, the following should happen:
•
The 2.6 indicator remains lit—density has not changed yet and the steady light
indicates recorded tape density
•
The 10.0/15.0 indicator blinks—density change is pending
•
Density Override lights
When a write from BOT occurs, the following should happen:
•
The 2.6 indicator turns off
•
10.0/15.0 indicator is on steady
•
Density Override remains lit
