IMPORTANT NOTES
Handling Hard Disks
Important Performance and Image
Data
811
• Once a hard disk fails to function normally, all data that
has been stored on it could be destroyed.
All hard disks eventually wear out.
We recommend that
you consider the hard disk not as a permanent storage
site, but as a place to store data temporarily. We also
recommend that you back up important performance and
image data that cannot be recorded again onto the
external media that is supported by your device. For
instructions on how to make such backups, refer to the
owner’s manual for your device.
Note that Roland assumes no liability whatsoever,
including monetary compensation, for the loss of any
recorded content in the event of the malfunction of, or
physical damage to the hard disk, or for any direct or
incidental damages resulting from the loss of such data.
Precautions Regarding Setup and Use
812
• Certain hard disk setup procedures and usage conditions
may result in the corruption of recorded data, malfunc-
tioning, or physical damage to the disk, so be sure to
observe the following precautions.
• Do not subject the hard disk to vibration or shock,
especially while the unit is in operation.
• Do not set up the unit in any location where it may be
affected by vibration from external sources, or on any
surface that is not stable and level.
• If the device includes a cooling fan, ensure that the fan
air vents remain unobstructed.
• Do not leave the unit in any environment subject to
temperature extremes; for example, in a closed
automobile in summer or outdoors during winter.
• Do not use the unit in conditions of high temperature
and humidity or in any location subject to rapid
temperature changes.
• Do not unplug the power cord or switch off any circuit
breakers in the circuit to which the unit is connected
while the power is turned on.
• Do not move the unit while the power is turned on or
immediately after turning off the power. When trans-
porting the unit, first turn off the power and confirm
that the display screen has gone off, disconnect the
power plug, then wait at least two minutes before
moving the device.
Emergency Procedures
813
* The following procedures are to be used as emergency
measures only, and are not recommended for normal
operation.
• If the device fails to respond to operational commands or
does not complete operations, turn off the power. If the
power does not shut off following normal shutdown
procedures, disconnect the power plug.
If the unit does not operate normally when the power is
turned on again, it may mean that the hard disk has been
damaged. In such instances, consult your dealer or the
nearest Roland Service Center. Note, however, that it may
not be possible to recover any data from the hard disk
once it has been lost.
