Formatting a Floppy Disk
A floppy disk cannot be used before it has been formatted. A floppy disk that is formatted dif-
ferently from the XRC recording format needs to be reformatted before it can be used. Follow
the procedure below to format a floppy disk.
The YASNAC FC1, which accepts 2DD floppy disks only, always formats a floppy disk into the
720 KB format. The YASNAC FC2 accepts both 2DD and 2HD floppy disks.

The floppy format display is shown.

Each time [SELECT] is pressed, the “2DD” and the “2HD” will be alternately displayed.
At this time, the format size corresponding to the foloppy type is automatically modified.
• 2DD : 720K
• 2HD : 1.2MB
2HD floppy disk format can be changed. To change, line up the cursor and press
[SELECT]. Each time [SELECT] is pressed, the “1.2MB” and “1.4MB” will be alter-
nately displayed.
When the format type is “2DD”, the format size is specified to 720KB.
• Be aware that all preexisting data on a floppy disk are lost when it is formatted.
• Floppy disks that are used with the XRC should have the MS-DOS format. Other record-
ing formats are unnacceptable.
