About This Manual
This is not a technical manual. Technical manuals usually
include information about the drive mechanism (like drive
specs, wiring schematics, pin outs ... stuff like that). Since
opening your Glyph enclosure voids your warranty, our
documentation covers the setup & use of the product, not
the drive inside it.
If you have questions or comments of a technical nature,
we urge you to check out our web site for technical
resources at www.glyphtech.com, or contact the Glyph
Technical Support Department at (607)275-0154.
The importance of the addendum.
Now, here’s one of the most important parts. As
technology changes, so do our products. So, in an effort to
make sure you have all of the most up-to-date information
and methodologies regarding your drive, we occasionally
include addendum sheets in your packing materials. Please
read this document for specific information about
compatibilities and formatting issues which may apply to
your situation.

Unpacking, Inspection & General Info
Your Glyph drive and accessories are packaged in a sturdy
shipping container. Please inspect the container for
evidence of shipping damage and mishandling. If such
evidence is found, file a report with the carrier or your
Glyph dealer immediately and do not attempt to unpack
and operate the Glyph drive until the carrier or dealer
confirms the damage. Glyph products are factory sealed
and you should not accept a box which has been previously
opened.
Open the box. Get all excited. Now, proceed with
unpacking the Glyph drive and verify that all of the
following items are present:
1. The Glyph drive itself
Tabletop -or- Rack Mounted
2. One (1) Glyph brand SCSI Cable
3. One (1) Terminator
4. One (1) Power Cable
5. Rack Screws (rack mounted drives only)
6. Warranty Card
If any of the items are missing, contact the party from
whom the drive has been purchased to arrange for
replacement.
• It is a good idea to keep the shipping container and
packing materials for storing or shipping the Glyph Tape
Drive at some future date.
• Save the serial number/part number document for your
records. this is very important should you ever need tech
support or service.
