In the PREFER page of the UTILITY screen, you can make settings that affect the overall opera-

tion of the AW1600, such as specifying whether or not popup windows will appear, and switching

copy protect on/off.

To access this page, repeatedly press the Work Navigate
section [UTILITY] key or hold down the [UTILITY] key
and use the CURSOR [ ]/[ ] keys.
This page contains the following items.

1STORE CONFIRM ON/OFF button

Specifies whether the TITLE EDIT popup window (allow-
ing you to assign a name) will appear when you store a
scene/library.
BRECALL CONFIRM ON/OFF button
Specifies whether a popup window will ask you to confirm
the operation when you recall a scene or library.
CD.OUT COPYRIGHT ON/OFF button
Specifies whether SCMS (Serial Copy Management Sys-
tem) copy protect flags will be written into the digital sig-
nal that is output from the DIGITAL STEREO OUT jack.
Protect is enabled if the button is on, and disabled if the
button is off.
If copy protect is enabled, you will be able to copy the sig-
nal from the DIGITAL STEREO OUT jack on an MD or
DAT recorder, but it will not be possible to make a second-
generation digital copy from that data.
●When copy protect is enabled
DPARAM DISP TIME
Adjusts the duration for which the value will be displayed
in the upper right of the screen when you use the knobs of
the Selected Channel section to edit a parameter. This set-
ting has a range of 0–9 (seconds).
•Executing the Format operation will erase all data from the internal
hard disk, and the data cannot be recovered. We recommend you
to backup all data on the internal hard disk to a computer before
executing the Format operation.
•You cannot abort the Format operation once it has been started.
•Never turn off or disconnect the power during formatting, since this
may damage the hard disk and cause malfunctions.
