PLS200 Library Installation and Operation

xv

Congratulations on selecting the Tektronix PLS200 Library. Your new library
provides automated data storage, archiving, backup, and retrieval for Tektronix
Profile Video Disk Recorders (VDRs).

The library's robotic cartridge handling mechanism (CHM) responds to
commands from the VDR to move 8mm data cartridges between tape drives and
storage slots, while the tape drives read and write data. You can insert and
remove cartridges through the entry/exit port without opening the library door.

The PLS200 includes 80 data cartridge slots and four tape drives. The library is
connected to the VDR by three wide, differential SCSI buses.
