Equipment Description
The VLS Unit
The VLS is a fully automated, high performance, high capacity, mass storage
system designed with a removable data cassette magazine. The door can be locked to
deactivate the unit's keypad, assuring only authorized removal of the magazine and
media. In addition, to protect the unit, data and media, the VLS will not operate unless
the door is closed.
Magazine
Note
The magazine for the VLS holds fifteen 4mm cassettes. It includes a clear dust cover
to protect the cassettes and for ease of storage. Figure 1 shows a 4mm cassette and a
filled magazine with the cover in place.
