MODE SELECT (55h) 10-Byte Command Descriptor Block — Data Format
The tape drive always powers up with its default configurations set. This is also true if the tape drive
receives a BUS DEVICE RESET message or a hard reset through the RST line on the SCSI bus.

MODE SELECT (15h/55h) Command Descriptor Block — Field Descriptions
Field Name
Description
LUN
Logical Unit Number. The target ignores this field. Only an IDENTIFY message
can change the LUN.
PF
Page Format. This bit indicates that the data the host sent after the MODE
SELECT header and block descriptors complies with the definition of pages in the
SCSI-2 specification. The SCSI-1 format is not implemented, so this bit must be
set. It is an ILLEGAL REQUEST to have page parameters while the PF bit is 0.
SP
Save Parameters. Not supported. This bit must be 0. The Save Parameters bit
instructs the tape drive to save all savable pages.
Parameter List Length
Specifies the length in bytes of the MODE SELECT parameter list that the initiator
transfers during the DATA OUT phase. A Parameter List Length of 0 indicates no
data is transferred.
