95741 Sixth Edition 5-3
Overview
Cartridge Routing
Cartridges are loaded into the CSL (Figure 5-3) vertically with the Media Id label
(R) facing out towards the operator (reels to the right). Load cartridges into the
input bin (right side of the CSL).
Note: Never load cartridges flat or with the cartridge reels to the left.
Figure 5-2 on page 5-2 provides all components of the CSL. The output bin is
located on the left side of the CSL. The feed channel is in the middle of the CSL.
Cartridges are shifted from the right to the left, from the input bin into the feed
channel and from the feed channel into the output bin.
Note: The CSL is unable to prevent or detect miss-oriented cartridges. Ensure
cartridges are always loaded correctly (Figure 5-3).
Cartridges are loaded into the drive as they are manually loaded by the
operator. If the drive detects an incorrectly positioned cartridge, it forces a CSL
failure condition or requests an unload operation from the CSL.
