By default, the autoloader operates in Native emulation mode and returns the

product identification, “Magnum 1x7,” in response to a SCSI INQUIRY

command from an application. If your autoloader software has not yet been

certified for the Magnum 1x7 LTO Autoloader, you can select an option that

allows the autoloader to emulate the VXA AutoPak 1x10 autoloader, Exabyte

EZ17 autoloader, or the Exabyte 210 library.

Table 3-4

lists the available

emulation modes for the autoloader.
