Drive Operation
Loading a Tape
Insert a cassette into the slot on the front panel with the arrow on the
cassette pointing towards the drive. As the cassette is inserted, the drive
takes it and automatically loads it into drive mechanism.
Unloading a Tape
The cassette can be removed from the SDX-400/SDX-410 either in
response to a SCSI Unload Command, or by pressing the eject bottom.
By pressing Eject button, the tape goes to BOT, the drive unthreads it, and
ejects the cassette from the slot.
Write-protecting a Tape
Cassettes can be write-protected by sliding the tab on the back of the
cassette. In this state, data can be read from the tape but not written onto it.
Using your fingernail, push the switch in the
direction of the arrow to protect the tape from
writing or accidental erasure.
Return the switch to its original position to
re-enable writing.

Using a Cleaning Cassette
In case of SDX-400 series/SDX-410 series, a cleaning function is built into
the drive and hence the use of a c leaning cartridge is not needed. If
however the drive experiences excessive errors, the use of a cleaning
cartridge is recommended.
