Write-protecting tape cartridges
All rewritable data cartridges have a write-protect switch to prevent accidental erasure or overwriting of
data. Before loading a cartridge into the library, make sure the write-protect switch on the front of the
cartridge is in the desired position.

Slide the switch to the right to write-protect the cartridge. A small pad-lock is visible indicating that
the cartridge is write-protected (see Figure 25).

Slide the switch to the left to allow the library to write data to the cartridge (see Figure 25).

Barcode reader
The barcode reader provides inventory feedback to the host application and/or LCD screen by reading
the cartridge barcode labels. The library stores the customized inventory data in memory.

Magazines
Cartridges are stored in magazines. Up to 12 cartridges can be stored in each magazine.
Magazines may be removed and inserted individually.
The actiLib Library 2U has two removable magazines. Magazine access can be password protected.
For safety reasons, the robotic motion is stopped when a magazine is removed.
The magazines can be released using the Operator Control Panel (OCP) or the Remote Management
Unit (RMU) In case the OCP or RMU initiated process has failed or the library no longer has power a
manual emergency release is available.
IMPORTANT: To manually release a magazine, see
„Magazine emergency relase”
on page 73.
However, this manual process should only be used if the magazine cannot be released
using the Operator Control Panel or the Remote Management Unit.
