8.2 Cleaning Cartridge

The cleaning cartridge is similar in appearance to the cartridge
shown in Figure 3-23. There are two ways to run a cleaning
cartridge: 1) a command can be issued to run the cartridge from the
control panel, or 2) the Auto Clean mode can be chosen on the
Configure Menu, described in Chapter5 – Installing and
Configuring the 5157 ALC Drive
. The procedures that follow tell
how to install a cleaning cartridge, how to clean a drive using front
panel controls, and how to remove the cleaning cartridge.

8.3 Required Location for the Cleaning Cartridge

If the cleaning cartridge is only run manually, there are no
restrictions on the location of the cleaning cartridge; however, if
the Auto Clean option is desired, one or more slots in the magazine
must be reserved using the Reserved Slots option described in
Chapter 5 – Installing and Configuring the 5157 ALC Drive. Any
reserved slots in the magazine become inaccessible to the host
software. In these cases, the ACL designates these inaccessible
slots as cleaning cartridge slots. On line 4 of the screen shown in
Figure 8-3, ‘Cleaning Slot 1’ appears instead of ‘Slot10.’ If slots
have been reserved, Cleaning Slot 1 is the first reserved slot in the
magazine.
