Using the Floppy Disk Drive (WK-3800 Only)

The WK-3800 comes with a built-in disk drive, which provides you with the capabilities described below.

You can save song memory and synthesizer data on a floppy diskette for long-term storage. When you need the data again, simply insert the diskette into the disk drive and load it.

You can play back SMF (standard MIDI file) data created on a personal computer and saved to diskette.

Floppy Diskette Precautions

IMPORTANT!

Be sure to carefully read all documentation that comes with the floppy diskette for important information about how to handle it.

Avoid the following locations when storing and using diskettes. Any of the conditions noted below can cause data stored on the diskette to become corrupted.

Near TVs, on top of audio equipment, or in any area exposed to magnetism. Take special care to keep diskettes away from any source of magnetism.

Areas exposed to direct sunlight, or subject to high humidity or temperature extremes.

Failure to observe any of the following precautions can cause data stored on the diskette to become corrupted.

Never try to take a diskette apart.

Never open the shutter of the diskette or touch the film inside with your fingers.

Never bend a diskette or otherwise subject it to rough handling.

Affix labels in the spaces provided only, and do not affix labels on top of previous ones.

Do not eject the diskette from the drive while the access lamp is lit or flashing or turn off keyboard power with a diskette in the drive. Doing either can cause data on the diskette to become corrupted and can even cause malfunction of the disk drive.

Never insert any foreign objects into the disk drive. Doing so can cause it to malfunction.

The disk drive uses a magnetic head. A dirty head cannot read data from a diskette properly and can corrupt existing data on the diskette. To avoid this, be sure to use a commercially available head cleaning diskette to periodically clean the head.
