operating status and potential error conditions. Refer to “LCD Messages” in the
Appendix for details of the kinds of messages that can be displayed here.

in the drive, or the cartridge selected when you press the Select button.

Protected) are displayed. DC indicates that data compression is being used for
writing, and WP indicates that a cartridge is write-protected.

which magazine slots contain a cartridge.

in the current partition. The more lines shown, the more tape has been used. When
all the lines show, the partition is full.
