347.0. "Addressing slots in TZ88x" by IMPERO::BELLONI (CHMP = Change mode to Paraglide) Wed Mar 19 1997 04:59

	Hello,

	Having a tape loader, for example a TZ885-NT or TZ887-NT, is it there 
some way to address the single cassettes without manual intervention?

	I mean: there is a command (by VMS or by some software), where I can 
tell to the system to mount, for example, the cassette in the fifth slot, then 
dismount it and mount the third cassette? 

	Many thanks in advance for any help.

    There is a product called MRU, the whole purpose of which is to control
    any and all of the tape magazines and robots that Digital sells.  The
    product manager is Bryan COOKIE::COX.  The notes conference is
    COOKIE::MRU.  MRU is entering field test for V1.2, with a *documented*
    callable API.  There is a web page for the field test sign-up form.
    See the conference for details.
