Fostex D2424 manual Saving the data using Scsi, Connecting a Scsi device

Model D2424 Reference Manual (Saving and Loading Song Data)

Saving the data using SCSI

This procedure will SAVE/LOAD using a removable SCSI drive disk (zip, MO, DVD-RAM etc.) that is a backup disk. In save/load using SCSI, the program can be selected separately or in whole.

A backup purpose SCSI disk is generally used after formatted in the backup format, however, a DOS formatted (computer format) SCSI disk can also be used to SAVE/LOAD in WAV.

Data saved in WAV can be re-loaded and even directly be read by the computer. Therefore, this kind of data can be used as music software, as well.

Connecting a SCSI device

Refer to the diagram to connect a SCSI device to a D2424.

<Notes on connection>

•Before making connections, make sure that both the recorder and the SCSI drive are turned off.

•One SCSI drive may be connected on the recorder.

•The SCSI connector on the recorder is a half pitch 50-pin connector compatible with Macintosh computers. Use a cable with connectors that conform to the standards for connecting a SCSI drive.

•The SCSI drive should be terminated. Install a SCSI terminator, or turn the termination switch to “on” if the drive has a termination switch (like a zip drive).

•You must format the SCSI disk after you connect it to the recorder. Refer to the “Formatting” section on the next page for the formatting procedure.
