PROCEDURE
1.
Verify that the tape cartridge's write-protect switch is set correctly. For write-protection, the light-colored tab
should NOT be visible. For write-enable, the tab should be visible.
2.
Check the LEDs on the tape drive front panel to make sure the drive is not functioning at present. Both the
green and amber LEDs should not be illuminated. It is not recommended to interrupt the tape drive if the
green LED is blinking. A steady green LED indicates a data cartridge is in the drive and the drive is ready for
activity. There is a problem if the amber LED is blinking.
3.
Insert the tape cartridge so the manufacturer's label is facing up and the write-enable switch on the cartridge
is facing toward you.
4.
Gently push the tape cartridge into the tape drive until the end with the write-enable switch is flush with the
tape drive front panel. The tape drive is auto-loading and will pull the tape cartridge the remainder of the way
into the drive. DO NOT force the cartridge into the drive.
5.
At Master Control Center (MCC) video terminal, type and enter:
VFY:AMATAPE:MT=08,ST1;
