Tape Cartridge

Follow the guidelines in the Quantum CompacTape Handling and Storage

Guidelines.

In addition:

•Use only the labels that were supplied with the cartridge. The use of other

labels may cause the cartridge to jam in the tape drive.

•Do not move a SPARCstorage DLT 4700 tape auto-loader with cartridges

installed. Doing so can damage the auto-loader and the cartridges.

Cleaning

In normal operating conditions, this drive does not require periodic cleaning.

When cleaning is required, the front-panel “Use Cleaning Tape” LED will light.

Use a CleaningTape III or equivalent cleaning cartridge. Follow the instructions

included with the cartridge.

Cable Connections

This auto-loader was shipped with one 50-50 pin and one 50-68 pin SCSI cable.

If you are connecting the auto-loader with wide-SCSI devices (68 pin), then the

tape drive should go at the end of the chain.

If you are connecting the auto-loader with other narrow-SCSI devices (50 pin),

then placement is up to you.

Note – A SCSI terminator must be used if the last device in the chain does not

have automatic SCSI termination.
