4.1.1 Data Cartridge
The Data Cartridge contains 1/2-inch MP (metal-particle) tape.
The cartridge door protects the tape from contamination when the cartridge is out of the
drive.
The write-protect switch prevents data from the accidental erasure of data.
The label area provides a location for placing a label. A label that extends outside of the
recessed area can cause loading problems in the tape drive.
The insertion guide is a large, notched area that prevents users from inserting the cartridge
incorrectly.
4.1.2 Cleaning Cartridge
The Tandberg LTO2 Autoloader itself determines when a drive head needs to be cleaned. It
alerts you displaying "REQ clean" on the LCD. The cleaning cartridge is valid for 50 uses. .
Important
If you insert a cleaning cartridge when the tape drive does not need to be
cleaned or if you insert a cleaning cartridge that has expired, the tape drive
will eject the cleaning cartridge automatically.
