Loading Cartridges Into the Library
Inserting/Removing Cartridges with Software
If the software package requires that cartridges be inserted and removed
using the software, check the software documentation before proceeding.
Label all cartridges before inserting them into the magazines. (See “Labeling
Tape Cartridges” on page 3-4.)
The bar codes and storage slot locations are stored in library memory when
the door is closed and the Inventory Check test is automatically run.
Keeping Cartridges in the Magazine
To prevent cartridges from sliding out of the bulk load magazines when
inserting them into the library:
• DO NOT use excessive force when inserting the magazines. This can
cause the magazine “latching” mechanisms to fail.
• DO NOT insert magazines when the library power is turned off. During
normal library operation, the cartridge release button on top of the
magazine is pushed down by a special mechanism inside the library. This
“unlocks” the cartridges, allowing them to be inserted and removed from
the storage slots as needed. When the control panel
RELEASE DOOR
option is enabled, the button on top of the magazine is released, which
“relocks” the cartridges into the magazine slots. During a power failure,
however, this button is not released, and cartridges can slide out of their
storage slots if a magazine is inserted or removed from the library. (If no
magazines are in a library, the special mechanism defaults to the position
that keeps cartridges locked into the magazine storage slot.)
