 5.4 Setting the Write-Protect Switch

  

The position of the write-protect switch on the 8mm tape cartridge determines when you can write to the tape.

  

   When the switch is set to SAVE  1 , data cannot be written to the tape.

  

   When the switch is set to REC (Record)  2 , data can be written to and read from the tape.

  

  

 Figure 14 shows the write-protect switch in the REC and SAVE positions.

  

An attempt to write to a data cartridge with the switch in the SAVE position will cause an error.
