Using AIT Data Cartridges
The AIT-2 and AIT-3 data cartridges are the only cartridge that
incorporate the unique Memory In Cassette (MIC) feature. A memory
chip built into each tape cartridge holds the tape’s entire data structure,
history and other user-definable information read directly by the AIT-2 or
AIT-3 drive. The MIC feature reduces file access time and expedites the
operation of the drive.
Insert the data cartridge in the cartridge pack with the cartridge window
facing the top of the magazine. Correctly installed, the data cartridge
snaps into the tape slot. Remove the data cartridge by grasping the
cartridge and pulling it straight out of the pack.
