Saving/Loading the Data/Connecting to the PC
Precautions to be taken during formatting
• If a floppy disk that contains data is formatted, all the data on the disk will be lost.
• When a floppy disk is inserted into the drive, the “Access..” message will flash, indicating
that processing is in progress. Never remove the floppy disk while this message is flashing.
• The “Format..” message will appear during formatting. Never remove the disk while this
message is flashing.
• Formatting for a floppy disk takes approx. one-and-half minutes.
• Before starting formatting, make sure that the write protection tab on the floppy disk is
released.
• Do not execute format when this instrument is connected to the PC with the SCSI cable.
Note
• Disks formatted to MS-DOS on a PC can also be used.
• The three directories are automatically created when “Set Media” is executed.
• Logical (Quick) format only clears (initializes) the directory entries and the FAT. If you wish to check
for bad sectors, do a physical (Normal) format also.
• Writing data to an external SCSI device having bad sectors may cause access error (604 Media failure).
If this happens no more data can be written to the device.
As a guideline, do a Normal format on disks used for the first time or disks which can no longer be read
or written, and a Quick format on disks which have been used previously.
