There are
two types of "Pertec" tape interface: Formatted and
unformatted. The formatted interface has two connectors, and the
unformatted interface is the three-connector control/read/write
interface. Your formatted-interface F880 won't be able to connect to
the TC-130.
More motivation to go back for that tape
drive!
Or find a formatter. The used to exist, because Prime originally sold
the Kennedy 9100 drives that way, until they built a smarter tape
controller.
