Accidental Erasure Protection
Floppy disks have an erasure protection tab which
can be set so that the Disklavier cannot record
new data onto the disk. This is useful for
protecting valuable song data against accidental
erasure and disk formatting. The protection tab is
located on the reverse side of the disk in the
bottom right-hand corner.
Three types of disks are used with the Disklavier: floppy disks, CDs, and internal Memory Disks.
Floppy Disks
Besides PianoSoft and PianoSoft.Plus song disks,
the Disklavier can play back songs stored on 3.5-
inch MS-DOS 720 kilobytes format 2DD floppy
disks and MS-DOS 1.44 megabytes format 2HD
floppy disks.
Handling Floppy Disks
Be careful of the following when handling floppy
disks.
• Do not touch the surface of a disk.
• Do not store or place disks near a television,
radio, loudspeaker, or any other device that
generates a magnetic field.
• Do not expose disks to extreme temperature or
humidity. The working temperature range for
disks is between 4˚C and 52˚C (40˚F to
125˚F).
• Do not use disks in a dusty, dirty or smoky
environment.
• Remove the disk before you turn off the
Disklavier.
