Loading a DDS Tape Cartridge
CAUTION! Only cartridges labeled "DDS" should be used in the DDS tape module. Do not use cartridges labeled "DAT". They will jam in the tape mechanism and damage to the mechanism will not be covered by the warranty. Also, only apply one label to a DDS tape cartridge to avoid jamming the tape mechanism.
NOTE! Do not try to force the DDS tape cartridge into the cartridge slot. If it does not load properly, the cartridge will be ejected after 10 seconds. You can then load the DDS tape cartridge again.
To load a DDS tape cartridge (see Figure 19):
1.Insert the DDS tape cartridge squarely into the cartridge slot in the direction of the embossed arrow on top of the cartridge.
2.Gently push the DDS tape cartridge into the cartridge slot until the autoloading mechanism takes the cartridge. The load sequence takes about 20 seconds. During the load sequence, the tape light flashes green. When the load sequence has completed, the tape light will turn steady green.
