6. Operating and maintaining the Scorpion 96
This section describes how to use your Scorpion 96
autoloader and DAT cartridges. It also explains how to
interpret the lights and alphanumeric codes displayed on the
front of the drive.
Using the autoloader tape magazine
After cartridges have been loaded into the magazine and the
magazine has been inserted into the magazine drawer, the
autoloader can be left indefinitely for unattended write or read
operations.
➤
Note. To avoid data loss, it is important to clean the drive
heads using a DDS head-cleaning cartridge after every
25 hours of read/write operation and whenever the green,
“Cassette” LED flashes during operation. See page 31 for
head-cleaning instructions.
Loading cartridges in a magazine
To load cartridges into the magazine, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the drive is powered on and operating
normally.
2. Press the Open/Close button on the front panel of the
drive to open the magazine drawer. After the drawer
opens, the word “OPERATOR” shows in the 8-digit LED
display. This indicates that signify operator action is
needed.
3. If the magazine is already in the drive, pull it straight up
and out of the drive.
4. Holding the magazine so the cartridge slots face out,
insert the DDS tape cartridges in the cartridge slots with
the door on each cartridge facing toward the slot opening.
The cartridges should seat firmly in the cartridge slots.
