27、 (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committe

28、es established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work

29、. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Stan

30、dards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elemen

31、ts of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC 20062 was prepared by ECMA (as Standard ECMA-316) and was adopted, under a special “fast-track procedure”, by Joint Technical Commit

32、tee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, in parallel with its approval of national bodies of ISO and IEC. Annexes A to J form a normative part of this International Standard.

33、 technology - 8 mm wide magnetic tape cartridge for information interchange - Helical scan recording - VXA-1 format Section 1 - General 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the physical and magnetic characteristics of an 8 mm wide magnetic tape cartridge to enable physical interchange of su

34、ch cartridges between drives. It also specifies the quality of the recorded signals, the recording method and the recorded format called VXA-1, and thereby allowing data interchange between drives by means of such magnetic tape cartridges. This International Standard specifies three types depending

35、on the length of magnetic tape contained in the case, referred to as Type A, Type B and Type C. Information interchange between systems also requires, at a minimum, agreement between the interchange parties upon the interchange code(s) and the specifications of the structure and labelling of the inf

36、ormation on the interchanged cartridge. If compression is used with this format, it shall be according to International Standard ISO/IEC 15200. 2 Conformance 2.1 Magnetic tape cartridges A magnetic tape cartridge shall be in conformance with this International Standard if it satisfies all mandatory

37、requirements of this International Standard throughout the extent of the tape. 2.2 Generating drive A drive generating a magnetic tape cartridge for interchange shall be entitled to claim conformance with this International Standard if all the recordings that it makes on a tape meet the mandatory re

38、quirements of this International Standard. A claim of conformance shall state whether or not the registered compression algorithm specified in ISO/IEC 15200 is implemented within the system to process data from the host prior to allocating data to segment data packets. 2.3 Receiving drive A system r

39、eceiving a magnetic tape cartridge for interchange shall be entitled to claim conformance with this International Standard if it is able to handle any recording on this tape according to this International Standard. A receiving drive shall be able to recognise the use of the data compression algorit
