The set-sct command attaches the SCT drive to the current process. This must be executed before any other tape handling commands. This command is provided for compatibility.
The set-sct command specifies a 1/4-inch streaming tape unit as the peripheral storage device. The set-sct command automatically specifies a t-att (tape-attach) command and a t-rew (rewind) command.
Make sure the hardware is present for a 1/4-inch drive. Otherwise, the port may wait forever. If only one density is available, then it is used. The default is high density.
