Using Cartridges
Before you use the autoloader, make sure you observe these general rules:
l Use only Super DLTtape I cartridges. The tape drive rejects all other types of cartridges. The tape drive is backward read-only compatible with
DLTtape IV cartridge media. Super DLTtape I formatted cartridges contain optical servo code, written on the media during the cartridge manufacturing
process. You can order tape cartridges at www.dell.com/tapebackup.
l Clean the tape drive when the Clean Drive LED is illuminated, or if there is any other indication that the drive is having trouble reading or writing,
such as if the Media Attention LED is illuminated, or if there is an exclamation point (!) in the inventory display. Be sure to use only a SDLT CleaningTape.
Illuminated when power is on. Blinking whenever there is tape drive or autoloader robotics activity.
Illuminated when the tape drive needs to be cleaned. The LED turns off when cleaning is successfully completed (see "Cleaning
the Tape Drive").Regular,periodiccleaningoftheSDLT320tapedriveisnotrequired.
elated error has occurred. This condition can be the result of dirty read/write heads in the tape drive, or if
an invalid or damaged cartridge is inserted. The offending cartridge will show a '!' in the cartridge inventory display for the
corresponding slot. Exporting the indicated cartridge will clear the error condition (see "Exporting Cartridges"). If these
symptoms occur on multiple known good cartridges, consider cleaning the tape drive (see "Cleaning the Tape Drive"). If a
particular cartridge causes these symptoms repeatedly, that cartridge may be defective or invalid.
Illuminated if an unrecoverable tape drive or autoloader error occurs. A corresponding error message appears on the LCD
screen (see "Autoloader Error Codes").
