Save & Load

The save and load operations via the DISK mode are the same as the direct save and load operations described above.

The disk write-protect slide must be in the write-enable position to perform a save operation. If it is

not, the “Write Protected!” error message will appear when you attempt to execute the save op- eration.

File names can be up

to 8 characters in length. Lower-case characters will be converted to

capitals when saved.

The last-entered file name is automatically shown by de- fault.

If you use characters not rec- ognized by the MS-DOS oper- ating system, the file name may not be recognized if you attempt to read the disk on different equipment.

For a save operation specify the data to be saved (not required if saving “1 All Data”), enter a file name if necessary, and press [ENTER]. If a file having the specified file name already exists on the current disk, the “Delete Old Data?’ display will appear. Respond to this display with the [+1/YES] key to go ahead with the operation or the [-1/NO]key to cancel.

An “Executing !” bar graph will appear to show the progress of the save operation. “Completed” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.

For a load operation select the file to be loaded, the destination (song, style, or phrase number — not required if loading “1 All Data”) and press [ENTER]. If previous data exists in the specified destination the “Delete Old Data?” display will appear.

Respond to this display with the [+1/YES] key to go ahead with the operation or the [-1/NO]key to cancel.

An “Executing !” bar graph will appear to show the progress of the load operation. “Completed” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.
