Windows Backup unattended

What I would like to do is create a schedule where a full backup runs once a
week and differentials run the other days of the week and are append all on
the same tape. Once a week I would go to the remote site and change tapes.

The problem that I seem to be having is that the scheduled job needs to be
associate to a tape, so once I change tapes the backups stop running. Is
there a work around for this. I will manual log what tapes are in the drive.
