•You cannot execute the backup operation without
selecting data.
• If you execute the backup operation with the AS
AW2816 button turned off, system data (the settings
you make in the UTILITY screen) will be backed up on
the media together with the selected data.
• If you execute the backup operation with the AS
AW2816 button turned on, data other than audio tracks
will not be backed up. All virtual tracks for tracks 1–16
will be backed up. For the stereo track, only the current
track will be backed up.
•When you restore data that was backed up to more
than one volume of media, you must insert the media in
the order in which it was backed up. Be sure to make a
note of the backup sequence on the label surface of
each CD-R/RW media.
