4 Requirements for Use

Use the READ BUFFER command to copy the new code from a tape drive across the SCSI bus to an initiator. You can then use the WRITE BUFFER command to copy the code from the initiator to another tape drive.

For more information about the CTS Monitor program, refer to the CTS Monitor documentation. For more information about using SCSI commands, refer to the EXB-8205 and EXB-8505 SCSI Reference.
