.
CSL in Manual Mode
This mode is used for sequential mounting of cartridges from the input bin into
the drive. The operator controls each mount by pressing the
Start switch before
each mount. When the CSL is in the manual mode and the drive is not loaded,
follow these procedures to load a priority cartridge:
1. If there are no cartridges in the input bin, the operator indicator flashes
signaling you to put a cartridge into the feed channel.
2. Press the Start switch to resume CSL operation.
Note: Refer to Figure 5-15 on page 5-21 to correctly load a cartridge into the
feed channel.
Cartridge Removal from Feed Channel
If the output bin is full (seven cartridges), and you load an eighth cartridge into
the feed channel for a priority mount, the cartridge cannot eject into the output
bin. The cartridge ejects into the feed channel (
Figure 5-16 ). You must
physically remove the cartridge from the feed channel.
Follow these instructions to remove the eighth cartridge from the feed channel:
1. Remove all cartridges from the input and output bins.
2. Push the cartridge stop mechanism down ( Figure 5-16 ).
3. Grasp the cartridge and remove it from the feed channel.
