4.10.10 EEPROM Vendor Unique Page (3Eh)
The tape drive supports the EEPROM vendor unique page (3Eh), and returns all EEPROM parameters
that can be set through MODE SELECT EEPROM Vendor Unique Page.

:
As a result of the long list of parameters, use MODE SENSE (10) instead
of MODE SENSE (6) to retrieve EEPROM parameters.
Because of the length of the EEPROM parameter, you must use a 10-byte MODE SENSE command to
retrieve the parameters. If you use a 6-byte MODE SENSE command to retrieve the EEPROM
parameter page, the tape drive returns this message:
“Send a 10-byte MODE SENSE command to get the Parameter List.”
The data returned by the 10-byte MODE SENSE command for the EEPROM page is in the form of a
MODE SENSE (10) data header followed by block and page descriptors.
The data in the page descriptor is organized in the form of a parameter header followed by the actual
parameter value. The parameter header is as follows:
EeromRevMajor
Cur: 0x01 Def: 0x01 Min: 0x00 Max: 0xFF <CR> <LF>
Name refers to the parameter name, for example, ProductID or DefaultCompOn.
