Installing Tape Cartridges
Quantum PX500 Series User’s Guide 43
• Avoid direct contact with static-sensitive parts. Avoid touching
connectors and discrete components.
• Close cabinet door and access panel when not working on the
cabinet.
• Be very careful when installing the cabinet or handling components
in dry climates or environments where cold weather heating is used.
Environments such as these with lower relative humidity have
greater potential to produce static electricity.
SDLT Cartridges
2
The following section shows you how to label SDLT tape cartridges, as
well as setting the write-protect switch and proper orientation.
Labeling
2
Attaching a barcode label to each tape cartridge enables the cabinet to
identify the cartridge quickly, thereby speeding up inventory time.
The SDLT cartridge label has eight characters (e.g. AAANNNS#). The
first six characters are called the volume identifier which is made up of
three alpha characters and three numeric characters. These characters
allow each cartridge to have a unique identifier. The last two characters
are called the media identifier and indicate the following media types:
• S1 = SDLT 220
• S2 = SDLT 320
• S3 = SDLT 600
• S4 = DLT-S4
Place the label in the slide-in slot on the front of the cartridge (see
figure 19 ).
Note: In environments with high potential for static electricity,
take additional precautions such as the use of an antistatic
smock or a grounded antistatic mat.
Note: You cannot choose the sequence of labels inside the bar code
label packs. No two packs are ever the same to avoid issues
with duplicate bar code IDs.
