Load a Data Cartridge
To load a cartridge into a T9840 tape drive:
Note –
A T9840 tape drive accepts only T9840 cartridges.
1. Inspect the cartridge for damage (see
“Identify a Damaged Cartridge” on page 95
).
2. Look into the drive load/unload slot to make sure there are no obstructions.
3. Hold the cartridge by the finger grips with the hub side down, and insert the
cartridge, carefully, into the tape drive loading slot.
Note –
For scratch data cartridges and other data cartridges on which the tape is
written, make sure the write protect switch on the data cartridge is in the unlocked
position (see
“Write-protect/Enable a Data Cartridge” on page 70
).
4. Push the cartridge into the load slot
Note –
For desktop or rack-mounted tape drives, when a cartridge is loaded, the
operator panel display window indicates one of the values in the following table.
