3 - DISK IDENTITY
If you forgot to label a disk, you might not know whether it is a Performance or
Library disk. The SPACE REMAINING function can also identify the type of disk.
1. Insert and latch the disk to be checked into either drive, or check two disks by
inserting and latching a disk into each drive.
2. With the disk module active, key in 3 to check identity. The display’s top line
checks the disk in Drive 1, the display’s bottom line the disk in Drive 2.
If the last word in a display line is “Bank” or “Banks”, the associated disk is a
Performance disk.
If the last word in a display line is “Bytes”, the associated disk is a Library disk.
If the disk has not been formatted, the display will ignore the disk and continue
asking you to key in a Disk function number.
4 - COPY DISK
As you build up a collection of disks, remember that they are not indestructible.
Therefore, E-mu recommends copying (“backing up”) any disk, Performance or
Library that contains material you don’t want to lose. Preferably, keep copies at a
separate location for maximum safety.
The following applies only to dual-drive Emulator Il’s. To backup a disk with a
single-drive Emulator II, insert the disk to be copied, activate the Disk module, key
in 4, and follow instructions given in the display.
1. Insert and latch the disk to be copied (“source” disk) in Drive 1.
2. Insert and latch the formatted disk being copied to (“destination” disk) in Drive 2.
3. With the Disk module active, key in 4 to COPY DISK. From now on, simply follow
the display, which first asks:
This WILL Erase
Memory OK? Y/N
Copying will erase whatever is in the Emulator II’s in memory. If that’s not okay,
press NO, save what’s in memory on to another disk (DISK 7), then try copying
again. Otherwise, press YES and the display will read:
Src Disk in Drv1
Dst Disk in Drv2
