Handling the floppy disk drive (FDD) and floppy disks
If you have the ELS-01, install the optional UD-FD01 floppy disk
drive to use floppy disks with the Electone. For information on
how to install the UD-FD01, see page 221.
Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive with care.
Follow the important precautions below.
■
Floppy disk compatibility
• 3.5" 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.
■
Formatting a floppy disk
• If you find that you are unable to use new, blank disks or old
disks that have been used with other devices, you may need to
format them. For details on how to format a disk, see page 95.
Keep in mind that all data on the disk will be lost after
formatting. Make sure to check beforehand whether or not the
disk contains important data.
NOTE
Floppy disks formatted on this device may or may not be
useable as is on other devices.
■
Inserting/removing Floppy Disks
●
Inserting a floppy disk into the disk drive
• Hold the disk so that the label of the disk is facing upward and
the sliding shutter is facing forward, towards the disk slot.
Carefully insert the disk into the slot, slowly pushing it all the
way in until it clicks into place and the eject button pops out.
NOTE
Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive.
Other objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy
disks.
●
Removing a floppy disk
• After checking that the instrument is not accessing* the floppy
disk, firmly press the eject button at the upper right of the disk
slot all the way in. When the floppy disk is ejected, pull it out of
the drive. If the floppy disk cannot be removed because it is
stuck, do not try to force it, but instead try pressing the eject
button again, or try re-inserting the disk and attempt to eject it
again.
* Access of the disk indicates an active operation, such as
recording, playback, or deletion of data. If a floppy disk is
inserted while the power is on, the disk is automatically
accessed, since the instrument checks whether the disk has data.
Do not remove the floppy disk or turn off the
instrument itself while the disk is being accessed.
Doing so may result not only in loss of data on the
disk but also damage to the floppy disk drive.
• Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive before
turning off the power. A floppy disk left in the drive for
extended periods can easily pick up dust and dirt that can cause
data-read and -write errors.
■
Cleaning the disk drive read/write head
• Clean the read/write head regularly. This instrument employs a
precision magnetic read/write head which, after an extended
period of use, will pick up a layer of magnetic particles from the
disks used that will eventually cause read and write errors.
• To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order Yamaha
recommends that you use a commercially-available dry-type
head cleaning disk to clean the head about once a month. Ask
your Yamaha dealer about the availability of proper
headcleaning disks.
■
About floppy disks
●
Handle floppy disks with care, and follow
these precautions:
• Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply pressure
to the disk in any way. Always keep floppy disks in their
protective cases when they are not in use.
• Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely high or low
temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liquids.
• Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed surface
of the floppy disk inside.
• Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as those
produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since magnetic
fields can partially or completely erase data on the disk,
rendering it unreadable.
• Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or housing.
• Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a
floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are attached in the
proper location.
●
To protect your data (write-protect tab):
• To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the disk's
write-protect tab to the “protect” position (tab open). When
saving data, make sure that the disk’s write-protect tab is set to
the “overwrite” position (tab closed).
●
Data backup
• For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep
two copies of important data on separate floppy disks. This
gives you a backup if one disk is lost or damaged.
