Unpack the tape drive and store the packaging. You may need the packaging if
you return the unit for service.
A period of time is required if the temperature of the drive when unpacked is
different than the temperature of its operating environment (measured at the
front of the bezel near the air intake area; see
1
in Figure 2-1). The
recommended time is 4 hours after the drive has been unpacked or 1 hour after
any condensation that you can see has evaporated, whichever is greater. To
allow the drive to adjust to its new environment, apply the following measures:
v If the drive is colder than its operating environment and the air contains
sufficient humidity, condensation may occur in the drive and damage it.
When the drive has warmed to the operating temperature range (greater
than 10 degrees C or 50 degrees F) and no danger of condensation is present
(the air is dry), warm the drive more quickly by powering it on for 30
minutes. Use a scratch tape to test the drive before inserting a tape that
contains data.
v If the drive is hotter than its operating environment, the tape can stick to the
drive head. When the drive has cooled to the operating temperature range
(less than 40 degrees C or 104 degrees F), cool the drive more quickly by
applying airflow for 30 minutes. Power on the drive and use a scratch tape
to test it before inserting a tape that contains data.
If you are uncertain about whether the temperature of the drive is within the
recommended operating range or the humidity is sufficient to cause
condensation, allow the drive to adjust to its new environment for the full 4
hours.
