When all files are copied, the following message
appears:
Note: Never remove the floppy disk or SmartMedia
unless the DisCover 5 tells you to do so. Always wait for
the above message to appear before returning to busi-
ness as usual.
You can also copy the entire contents of one
floppy disk to another disk (without specifying
the files manually). This function is not avail-
able for SmartMedia cards.
WARNING: Copying files from a disk means
that the DisCover 5’s RAM memory is erased. If
you haven’t yet saved your last song to disk or
card, you should do so before proceeding.
(1) Press the [DISK÷MEDIA] button.
(2) Press the [UTILITY] field, followed by the
[DiskCopy] field.
The display now responds with a warning
regarding copyright legislation.
It means that you are not allowed to make cop-
ies of copyrighted material for friends, col-
leagues, or anyone else.
(3) Press the [PROCEED] field to signal your
agreement.
(Press [ABORT] if you do not want to copy the
inserted floppy disk’s data after all.)
(4) On the page that appears now, press the
[DiskCopy] field.
(5) Press the big [Do≈It] field in the middle.
The display now responds with:
(6) Slide the protect tab of the disk you wish to
copy in the Protect position and insert the
floppy into the disk drive.
Note: It will be impossible to copy the desired floppy
disk if you do not write-protect it. In that case, the mes-
sage “Source Disk unprotected” appears and the display
returns to the above page.
(7) Press the [EXECUTE] field to start the copy
operation.
(Press the [ABORT] field if you do not want to
copy the floppy disk after all.)
The display now shows a message to signal that
some (or all) data are being copied to the
DisCover 5’s RAM memory.
Once the first data chunk has been loaded, fol-
lowing message appears:
(8) Remove the original floppy (the SOURCE disk)
from the drive and insert the one (DESTINA-
TION) you wish to copy the data to.
Note: Be careful to set the PROTECT tab of the Destina-
tion disk to the WRITE (or OFF) position.
Note: You need to use the same disk type as the one of
the Source disk. If that was a 2DD disk, insert a 2DD disk.
If the Source disk is a 2HD disk, use a 2HD disk.
(9) Press [EXECUTE] again.
