Caution

Do not use 8 mm video tapes sold at stores. An 8 mm video tape looks a lot like an AIT cartridge, but has different specifications. Do not use any other cartridges other than AIT cartridges.

Cleaning Cartridge

To clean the AIT drive, use an AIT Cleaning cartridge (sold separately). For information on cleaning, see “Cleaning the AIT Drive” (page 37) in Chapter 5, “Cleaning the AIT Drive”.

Software

For guidance on application software that can be used with the AIT autoloader and supported operating systems, contact your dealer.

Precautions

Use cartridges suited to the type of AIT drive installed. Using cartridges other than AIT cartridges may cause improper operations. For information about cartridges that can be used with the AIT autoloader, see “Compatible Cartridges” (page 12).

Do not insert anything except AIT cartridges in the slot of the cartridge case, as doing so may result in damage.
