Write-Protecting
Cartridges

All cartridges have a write-protect switch to prevent accidental erasure or
overwriting of data. Before loading a cartridge into the ValueLoader,
make sure the write-protect switch on the front of the cartridge is
positioned as desired:
• Slide the switch to the
left
to write-protect the cartridge. A small
orange rectangle is visible, indicating the cartridge is write-protected.
• Slide the switch to the
right
to allow the ValueLoader to write data to
the cartridge. The lock icon on the switch indicates that the cartridge
is write-enabled.

To ensure the longest possible life for all of your tape cartridges, follow
these guidelines:
• Do not drop or strike a cartridge. Excessive shock can displace the
tape leader, making the cartridge unusable and possibly damaging
the ValueLoader.
• Store your tape cartridges in their storage cases.
• Do not expose your tape cartridges to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, including portable heaters and heating ducts.
