After installing the VXA-320 tape drive, you may need to integrate it with your

backup software application and computer operating system. The Support

section of Tandberg Data’s web site,

www.tandberg.com

, provides a list of

backup software applications and operating systems that are compatible with

the VXA-320 tape drive.

If your backup software application does not support the VXA-320 tape drive,

you can use VXATool to change the product identification information

(Inquiry String) that the tape drive returns to the software. Changing the tape

drive’s identification information does not affect the tape drive’s speed or

capacity. For instructions on using VXATool to change the tape drive’s Inquiry

String, refer to the help or readme file provided with VXATool. Additional

information is available at:

www.tandberg.com

(article #2002).

Refer to the information provided with your backup software application for

device integration instructions. Refer any questions regarding software

configuration and operation to your software provider.

The CD included with the tape drive provides device drivers for use with the

Windows operating system.

!

Important

Do not install these drivers unless you are using the Windows

native backup software application or unless your backup software

application instructs you to do so.
