Unload Button

3.5.1 Beeper
A beeper sounds when you can operate the cartridge insert/release handle. When you
hear the beep, the green Operate Handle indicator should be on.
3.5.2 Unload Button
The Unload button is used primarily to unload the tape. When the user pushes Unload,
the DLT4000 drive waits until an active write to tape is completed before beginning
the unload sequence.
The drive then rewinds the tape back into the cartridge. The tape must be completely
rewound and unloaded into the cartridge before you can remove the cartridge from the
drive. An unload operation may take 20 seconds from BOT.
If the drive is in error state (all right-side indicators are flashing on the front panel),
pushing the Unload button causes the drive to reset and unload the tape if possible.
3.5.3 Cartridge Insert/Release Handle
Operate the cartridge insert/release handle to load a cartridge or to eject a cartridge
only when the Operate Handle indicator is on, and after the momentary beep sounds.
The handle lifts to the open position and lowers to the closed position. See Section 3.7
and Section 3.9 for the operating procedures.
