BRIEF HISTORY ECMA have produced a series of ECMA Standar
2、ds for cassettes and cartridges containing magnetic tapes of different width and characteristics. ECMA-34 (1976) : ECMA-46 (1976) ECMA-79 (1985) : ECMA-98 (1985) : ECMA-120 (1987) : ECMA-139 (1990) : ECMA-146 (1990) : The first five of these media were designed for the digital recording of data for
3、storage and processing in data processing systems. In recent years, other magnetic media, originally developed for audio and video applications, have been considered for use in data processing applications for storage as well as for information interchange. The recording method known as helical scan
4、 recording, together with new types of magnetic tapes, allows to achieve capacities of more than 1 gigabyte of user data. Upon request of Committee ISOIIECIJTClISCll Standard ECMA-139 and ECMA-146 have been contributed to ISOIIEC for adoption as International Standards under the fast-track procedure
5、. The present Standard is the first standard for 8 mm wide magnetic tape cartridge. Also upon request of ISO/IEC/JTCl/SCll, this ECMA Standard has been contributed to IS0 for adoption as an International Standard under the fast-track procedure.

Conditioning before operating: If a cartridge has been exposed du
43、ring storage and/or transportation to a condition outside the above values, before use the cartridge shall be conditioned in the operating environment for a time at least equal to the period during which it has been out of the operating environment, up to a maximum of 24 hours.
