MODE SELECT MC command 15h
The MODE SELECT medium-changer command provides a means for the initiator to specify
medium changer device parameters to the target by sending data relevant to such parameters in a data
phase following the command. Initiators should issue MODE SENSE prior to MODE SELECT to
determine supported pages, page lengths, and other parameters. A single set of Mode Select parame-
ters kept by the controller are common to all initiators for a specific LUN. Buffered write data is syn-
chronized to tape prior to activating the new mode parameters.
Mode Select parameters remain in effect until modified by another MODE SELECT command or
until reset to their saved values following a power on sequence, SCSI bus reset, or SCSI device reset.
Refer to the description of the Mode Sense command for an explanation of the different types of
parameters (PC field).
