On the USB menu screen, you can also select "Disk protect" menu item.

This menu item allows you to enable or disable the protection of the internal hard disk.

By default, it is set to "Off" and you can read from or write to the internal hard disk by com- puter operation.

If you want to protect the internal hard disk from destroying file data on the hard disk by accidental computer operation, it is recom- mended to enable the "Disk protect" function. When the "Disk protect" function is enabled, you can only read data from the internal hard disk by computer operation.

To enable the Disk protection function, follow the procedure below.

In the description below, it is assumed that the USB menu is shown on the display.

(1)Use the [MENU] dial to highlight "Disk protect" and press the [ENTER] key.

The current setting ("Off" by default) starts flashing.

(2)Use the [MENU] dial to select "On" and press the [ENTER] key.

The disk protect function is now enabled and the display returns to the previous screen. Then enable USB connection.

To disable the disk protect function, perform the same procedure as above.

<Memo>: If you initialize the system memory via the "Sys default memory" menu item of the "System" menu, the disk protect func- tion reverts back to "Off".
