11、prepared under the direction of the Information Systems Technology Standards Policy Committee, is identical with ISO8462-1:1986 “Information processing Data interchange on6,30mm (0.25in) magnetic tape cartridge using GCR recording at394ftpmm (10000ftpi),39cpmm (1000cpi) Part 1: Mechanical, physical

12、and magnetic properties” published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The purpose of this standard is to define those characteristics necessary for successful data interchange using magnetic tape cartridges. The information contained is intended as a guide to writing comple

13、te specifications for manufacture, purchasing and/or testing. The text of the International Standard does not accord with the recommendations for drafting product specifications given in the ISO Directives, or in BS0-3, but the BSI Technical Committee considers the text is useful as a guide when car

14、tridges are being described or specified. For this reason this British Standard has a different title from the International Standard; it is issued as a British Standard guide and it should only be used as such. It should not be used on its own as a British Standard product specification and, in par

15、ticular, no claims of compliance with this British Standard should be made. Terminology and conventions. The text of the International Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminology and certain conventions are not identical with those

16、 used in British Standards; attention is drawn especially to the following. For metric units the comma has been used as a decimal marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever the words “ISO8462-1” or “Part of ISO8462” appear,

17、 referring to this standard, they should be read as “Part of BS7080”. Where the words “ISO8462” appear they should be read as “BS7080”. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.

18、 Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

20、rporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS7080-1:1989 BSI 12-1999 1 1 Scope and field of application ISO 8462 specifies the characteristics of a tape cartridge loaded with magnetic tape6,30mm(0.25in) wide intended for digital recording at physical recording

21、densities of252ftpmm (6400ftpi) and394ftpmm(10000ftpi). ISO 8462-2 specifies a recording method and a data format intended for use in the streaming mode of operation. Two alternative track formats are specified: a 4-track format, and a 9-track format. This part of ISO8462 specifies the mechanical, p

22、hysical and magnetic properties of a6,30mm(0.25in) wide magnetic tape cartridge and methods for testing the surface quality of the tape. It also specifies the environmental conditions under which the cartridge shall be tested and operated, and recommends conditions for storage. ISO 8462-1 and ISO846

23、2-2 provide for the physical interchange of cartridges between data processing systems, and specify a data format. A labelling standard for tape cartridges used in the streaming mode is under study. The availability of such a labelling standard will provide for full data interchange between data pro

24、cessing systems. NOTENumeric values in the SI and/or Imperial measurement system in this part of ISO8462 may have been rounded off and therefore are consistent with, but not exactly equal to, each other. Either system may be used, but the two should be neither intermixed nor reconverted. The origina

25、l design was made using the imperial measurement system. 2 Conformance A 6,30 mm (0.25in) wide magnetic tape cartridge shall be in conformance with ISO8462 if it meets either all mandatory requirements of both ISO8462-1 and ISO8462-2 specified for the4-track format or all mandatory requirements of b

26、oth ISO8462-1 and ISO8462-2 specified for the9-track format. The two formats shall not exist on the same cartridge. 3 Reference ISO 8462-2, Information processing Data interchange on6,30mm (0.25in) magnetic tape cartridge using GCR recording at394ftpmm (10000ftpi),39cpmm (1000cpi) Part2:Streaming mo
