AUTOMATIC FOLDER LOADING
The [PRESETS] menu contains an Auto Load function, mentioned earlier, which can be set to 'On' or 'Off'.
When on, the W-5000 automatically tries to load folder number one whenever a disk is inserted into the
drive. If the disk doesn't have folder number one, the internal folder remains active. Similarly, when the disk
is removed from the drive, the internal folder is automtically selected.
When this function is off, inserting or removing a disk has no effect. Well, not quite. If you have a disk
folder selected, and you remove the disk, the internal folder is 'selected' but not loaded. This means that
subsequent [SET] operations will write to the internal folder, but removing the disk doesn't cause
registrations to be loaded from the internal folder. Got it?
This function is particularly useful when you want to copy from one disk to another. With Auto Load turned
off, you can insert one disk, load one folder (using [MEMORY] and [1]-[8]), swap in a different disk, and
save that folder (using [SET] and [MEMORY] and [1]-[8]). If Auto Load is on, you wouldn't be able to do
this because the W-5000 would automatically load the internal folder when you removed the disk from the
drive and then load folder one from any new disk inserted into the drive.
SELECTING A FOLDER WITHOUT LOADING
If there is a disk in the drive you can also 'select' a folder without actually loading it. If you press the
[MEMORY] button, the number of the currently selected folder is displayed ('Internal', or '1' through '8').
You can edit this setting like any other value using the [+] and [-] buttons. Doing so, however, will not cause
your selection to be loaded. All this does is change the folder that will be accessed when you store an
individual registration using the [SET] button. (It is also useful for selecting what folder will be deleted
when the Delete Folder function is selected from the [PRESETS] menu.)
Note, however, that if you select a folder in this manner, you can no longer be sure that the registrations that
are assigned to the General Preset buttons match what is in the currently selected folder. Sometimes this can
be useful because it allows you to create a folder consisting of individual registrations collected from various
other folders.
THE CANCEL AND GLOBAL FILES
A floppy disk can also store a copy of a CANCEL registration and a global file. (Even though there can be
eight folders on a disk, there can only be one CANCEL registration and one global file.) This allows you to
exchange these files with a different instrument, or simply maintain a backup file.
The CANCEL file works like this:
•
When the instrument is turned on, the CANCEL file is loaded from internal memory into the [CANCEL]
button, and that registration is selected.
•
When you hold [SET] and press [CANCEL], the current registration is stored to the CANCEL file in the
internal memory. It always goes to the internal memory, even if a disk folder is selected.
•
When you execute the 'Save Cancel' function ([PRESETS] menu), the CANCEL file is copied from
internal memory to the disk. It doesn't save the current registration, it just copies this file.
•
When you execute the 'Load Cancel' function ([PRESETS] menu), the CANCEL file is copied from the
disk to internal memory. It doesn't affect the current registration, it just copies the file.
The Global file works like this:
•
Global settings are not part of any registration. When the instrument is turned on, the global 'file' is loaded
from internal memory, and all the settings recorded in it are read.
•
When you change a global setting, it is a temporary change and must be saved if you want to keep it.
