Load Port 1
The load port is located at the front of the library above and to the
left of the control panel (see figure 1
). It allows an operator to insert
and/or remove up to four tape cartridges (see table 1
for a
description of the load port buttons).
To load/remove cartridges, press the OPEN button. When the
indicator stops blinking, the load port door opens and allowing the
operator to insert tape cartridges. To close, press the
CLOSE button

For the unload operation, the gripper places tape cartridges in the
load port bins. Looking through the view port, the operator will be
able to decide if an unload operation is necessary. Pressing the
OPEN button automatically opens the door allowing the operator
to remove the tape cartridge(s).
