4. Examine the sonic weld area (near the tape access door, (3,
FIGURE 5-1 on page 83
) for
integrity.
Sonic weld damage might not be easily discernible. If there is any question about the
integrity of the sonic weld, consult your Sun service representative. If the sonic weld
area has failed, the cartridge must be discarded, even if otherwise visibly undamaged.
5. Slowly turn the cartridge over and listen for any loose items within the cartridge.
Caution –
Consult your Sun service representative if any loose items are heard before
attempting to load the cartridge into a tape drive. Loose items within the cartridge means
something inside is broken and loading the cartridge could either damage the tape so its data
could never be retrieved or the cartridge could damage the tape drive
.
6. Operate the write-protect switch, (2,
FIGURE 5-1 on page 83
) several cycles.
The write-protect switch should slide smoothly.
7. Open/close the tape access door (1,
FIGURE 5-2
) several times, and examine the door
for damage.
If the door is visibly damaged, and/or does not open/close smoothly, the cartridge
must be discarded.
8. Hold the tape access door open, and determine if the leader (2,
FIGURE 5-2
) is in the
home position (securely butted against stops).
Caution – If the leader was jarred out of the home position, it is loose and floppy, or
might even be fully retracted into the cartridge case.
If a load attempt was made with the leader out of the home position, the tape drive
fully retracts the leader; it is pulled back into the cartridge and is no longer visible.
Do not attempt to force the leader back into the home position. If the leader is not in the home
position, contact your Sun service representative.
