Scope:
This standard provides the requirements for the helical-scan recording
method and the Digital Data
Storage (DDS) recorded format of a 3.81-mm (0.150-in) magnetic tape
cartridge to be used for
information interchange between information processing systems.
Information interchange between information processing systems

It is not within the scope of this standard to describe unrecorded
tape and cartridge requirements,
labeling and file structure requirements, or interchange code
requirements.
