Page 4 - Erase

Press ENTER to confirm overwriting, EXIT to avoid it. When you decide to overwrite, the data you are copying will replace the existing data on the target. For example, if the same midifile exists on the target folder, it will be overwritten.

Data that doesn’t exist on the source folder is left unchanged. For example, if the MYSONG01.MID midi- file exists on the target folder, but not in the source folder, it is left untouched after copying the other data.

When you decide not to overwrite, data existing on the target folder is left unchanged, therefore are not copied.

10.The “Are you sure?” message appears. Press ENTER to confirm, EXIT to abort the copy.

The Format function lets you initialize a disk.

Press DISK and use the MENU or PAGE buttons to reach this page.

Disk:Format

FD Fast Format

FD Full Format

-- FORMAT -- --

Warning: When formatting a disk, all data it contains is lost.

FD Fast Format

This is a very fast format command, that you can use on pre- viously formatted floppy disks. This command rewrites just the FAT (File Allocation Table) of the disk, without actual reformatting of all sectors.

If it cannot be executed, the “FD Fast Format failed. Full For- mat?” message appears. Press ENTER/YES to proceed with the Full Format, or EXIT/NO to abort.

1.Insert a 3.5” HD or DD/DS floppy disk into the disk drive, and select this option to format it.

2.Move the FD Fast Format option to the first line of the display.

3.Press F2 (Format) to confirm formatting.

4.The “Delete all data?” message appears in the display; press ENTER to confirm, EXIT to abort.

FD Full Format

This is the traditional format command, where each sector of the floppy disk is formatted. It is slower than the Fast Format command, but sometimes more reliable.

See above for the procedure.
