When the desired tape density appears, push the mode switch to select it. The selected setting is used until
the unit is power cycled or reset. These choices are offered:
C0
= Compressed format
40
= Uncompressed format
FF
= Density controlled by the host software
Note: The setting from the last change of tape density is used as the default start-up value. The density
can be changed on a tape-by-tape basis any time the tape is at BOT during normal Performance
display operation.
