Copying Files & Copying Floppy Disks

The Copy File function allows you to copy files to a different directory on the same disk, or to another disk. The Copy Floppy Disk (COPY FD) function allows you to make complete copies of floppy disks — a perfect way to make backup copies of your important data.

The explanations here apply to step #3 of the Basic Procedure on page 150.

Select the desired menu.

Execute the COPY FD operation by following the on-screen instructions.

The COPY FD function cannot be used to copy hard disk data.

Copies can only be made to the same type of floppy disk as the source disk (i.e. 2HD to 2HD or 2DD to 2DD).

Some types of pre-recorded music software disks are copy protected.

Select the source files.

Select the destination device and directory.

Backing Up/Restoring the Data in Flash ROM

Any data that was pre-recorded in Flash ROM will be erased and replaced by the new settings. This means that preset setups (factory settings) will also be erased. It is therefore a good idea to save them to disk via the Backup function before recording or creating your own original data so that you can keep them indefinitely.

The explanations here apply to step #3 of the Basic Procedure on page 150.
