The disk drive can also take normal floppy disks, but their capacity is limited
to a mere 1.44 megabytes, which is only enough for about 25 minutes of
recordings. However, normal floppy disks are quite useful for storing a single
recording.
Before use, a new LS120 disk will be formatted so that it can take 2048
recordings, rather than the 512 files which is the norm in the PC world. The
recorder will format a new empty LS120 disk automatically so users need not
concern fthemselves with this. The new formatting by the Call Recorder is
compatible with use in a PC.
Just like a floppy disk or a CD, an LS120 disk sometimes refuses to work
when it is not quite in the right position in the drive. No information will be lost
if this happens because the recorder stores it in the working memory as it is
recording. Simply eject the disk and insert it again.
If the recorder spots an error on an LS120 floppy, it will mention this on the
display. If this is the case, the Play key can be pressed again to complete the
request. The recorder will then play the recording again (and also subsequent
recordings) and neglect the errors on the floppy. The mention of an error
does not mean that all information on the disk has been lost. If the error
keeps on occurring, you could have the disk verified, to check if it is advisable
to continue using the disk for further recording.

night. There may be situations when this is not sufficient or when you want to
make your own copies:
