Byte 00, Bit 7 - CT (Cartridge Type)
The CT bit works in conjunction with the 112m bit (byte 01, bit 0) to
indicate the size of the data cartridge that is expected to be loaded in
the CTS. Table 10-10 shows the combinations of settings for the CT
and 112m bits.

Use this setting for 112m tapes. (When set to 1,
the 112m bit overrides the CT bit.)
Notes:
If you are using 160m XL data cartridges with an EXB-8505XL or
EXB-8205XL, the CTS ignores the settings of the CT and 112m bits.
You can set the CT bit only when the tape is positioned at LBOT.
