Quantum DAT 160 Betriebsanweisung

The open side of the magazine faces the DAT Autochanger. Make sure each cassette
touches the bottom floor of the magazine. The cassettes will fit firmly in the
magazine due to the spring holder (the button-like object on the side of the cassette
slot). The spring holder will keep each cassette in place even if the magazine is
turned upside down.

Do not use wrap-around labels on the individual cassettes. Most labels use a
removable adhesive and have a tendency to curl or tear after multiple uses. This can
jam the movement of the DAT Autochanger.

Note the following:

•

 Store magazines (and data cassettes) in a dry, cool environment. Keep the

dust cover on the magazine.

•

 Never reset or power down your host computer or DAT Autochanger while a

function is in process or a tape is moving. In addition to a tape with missing
or corrupted data, you may also get tape run-on within the drive (a condition
that can produce internal contamination requiring extra cleaning).

•

 If a power outage occurs during a back-up sequence, restart your backup

from the beginning.

p Open the DAT Autochanger door.

The magazine should be inserted and removed from the DAT
Autochanger with the magazine cover on.

p Holding the magazine by the cover, use two hands to place it on the carriage

platform. Make sure that the two projections on the bottom of the magazine fit
into the two holes on the carriage platform.
