At this time, using the JOG dial allows you to select the
load destination Program.
Since there is only one Program in the destination disk in
this example, you can select only [P01]. If the destination
disk contains multiple Programs, see the following
<Memo>.
7. Use the JOG dial to select the load destination Pro
gram and press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The FD-8 starts loading data.
Backup data [B01] is loaded to Program [P01] on the cur
rent disk. As the operation progresses, the REMAIN value
counts down.
When the load operation is completed, [COMPLETED !]
lights up.
8. Press the EXIT/NO key to exit SETUP mode.
The Time Base display of the loaded Program appears.
9. Press the EJECT button on the backup drive to eject
the backup disk.
<Memo>
If you saved one Program to multiple backup disks, the
FD-8 indicates that the disk in the drive is the “first” disk,
as follows:
Confirm that this message appears, and execute the load
operation. When data in the first disk is loaded, the FD-8
automatically ejects the disk and displays [Inst. Disk 2],
meaning “Please insert the second disk.” Insert the sec-
ond disk and continue the load operation.
Note:
Make sure that you insert the disks in the correct
order. If you insert the wrong disk, the FD-8 displays [Wrong
disk] and ejects the disk. Follow the disk markings you made
during the save operation.
<Memo>
If the load destination disk contains multiple Programs,
the FD-8 asks whether you wish to set up a new Program
in Step 6 of the procedure above. ([03] and [SURE ?] flash.)
This is because the existing Programs may already con-
tain data. If you do not mind overwriting the existing
data with the loaded data, select the desired Program
number as the load destination.
In the above display example, the FD-8 asks you if you wish
to create a new Program 3, since Programs 1 and 2 on the
current drive disk contain data.
Saving/loading via a DAT or adat
To use a DAT or adat to save and load data, the current SCSI drive disk should be a fixed disk that is formatted in
Master mode. Refer to the “Saving/loading data using an 2.5-inch internal hard disk as the current drive” section
for a detailed procedure of the save/load operation.
