Chapter 1 Introduction
Built-in AIT-1 drive (LIB-81/A1 models)
Caution
• Do not use 8 mm video tapes sold at stores. An 8 mm video tape looks a lot
like an AIT cartridge, but has different specifications. Do not use any
cartridge other than those listed above. Use only designated AIT data
cartridges.
• For combinations other than those mentioned above, refer to the attached
sheet.
Cleaning Cartridges
To clean the AIT drive, use an AIT Cleaning cartridge. There are four types of
cleaning cartridges: the SDX5-CL for use with AIT-5 drives; SDX4-CL or
SDX4-CLL for use with AIT-4 drives; SDX3X-CL for use with AIT-3 Ex
drives; and SDX1-CL for use with AIT-3, AIT-2, and AIT-1 drives. Make sure
that you use the cleaning cartridge appropriate for your drive. For information
on cleaning, refer to “Cleaning the AIT Drive” (page 63) in Chapter 5,
“Operating the AIT Drive”.
Software
For guidance on application software that can be used with the AIT library and
supported operating systems, contact your dealer.
Precautions
• In the cartridge slots, use the optimum cartridges for your type of AIT drive.
Using cartridges other than AIT cartridges may cause malfunctions. For
information about cartridges that can be used with the AIT library, refer to
“Compatible Data Cartridges” (page 11).
• Do not insert anything except AIT cartridges in the cartridge dock, as doing
so may result in damage.
• If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location, or if ambient
temperature suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer surface and/or
inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation occurs, put
the unit aside without turning it on and wait until the condensation clears. Do
not use the unit in such a state, as this may damage it.
