VR800 Owner’s Manual (Saving and Loading Song Data)
Before the value starts counting down, the VR800 is transmitting a pilot signal that will be a reference of the tape position during the load operation.
Actual data recording starts when the count down starts.

Loading song data via a DAT or adat
This section explains how to load backup data from a DAT or adat to a
This procedure assumes that no recordings exist on the current drive (load destination). Be sure to turn off the power to all devices before you make connections.
Note: The current drive disk should be formatted in “Master 8ch mode” to load data to or from a DAT or adat. However, loading from DAT only is also possible in the “Master 4ch mode” disk.

DAT (or adat) connection and preparation
*Connect the DATA IN on the VR800 to the OPTICAL OUT on a DAT or to “adat out” on an adat using an optical cable. If you are using S/P DIF digital signal (DAT), use an optional Fostex
*After all connections are made, turn on the power to all devices, and insert a backup tape into a DAT (or adat). Rewind the tape to a point slightly before the beginning of the saved data.
Note: Depending on whether you use a DAT or an adat, you need to switch between S/P DIF digital signal (OPTI- CAL) and adat digital signal for the DATA IN/OUT jacks. These signals are completely different, although they use the same jack configuration.
