Precautions
Useable Cartridges
SDX-900V series can be used with data and cleaning cartridges marked
with the AIT-4 logo.
Notes
• Be sure to use only data cartridges designed specifically for AIT (do not use 8 mm
video cartridges) as this may damage the drives.
• Do not use anything but AIT cartridges with this system, as doing so can damage the
AIT drive. Although commercially available 8mm videotapes resemble AIT cartridges
in appearance, they have entirely different specifications and cannot be used.
Installation
Avoid placing the drives in locations subject to:
– high humidity
– high temperature
– mechanical shock and vibration
– direct sunlight
*
For details, see “Specifications” on page 26.
Operation
• Do not move the drives while they are operating. It may cause
malfunctions.
• Avoid exposing the drives to sudden changes from low to high
temperatures. This may cause condensation to collect inside the drives. If
the ambient temperature should suddenly rise while the drives are turned
on, turn them off and wait at least one hour before turning them back on.
If you attempt to operate the drives immediately after a sudden increase
in temperature, malfunctions may occur.
• Turning off the power to the drives while they are writing to tape may
cause the tape to become unreadable. All previously negotiated
parameters will be lost, whenever power to the drives is cycled.
