Floppy Disk Drive Operations
The switcher floppy disk subsystem is used to store and recall
effects files stored in E-MEM registers, and to store and recall
system configuration setups. You can also:
Format diskettes
Create directories and files
View the diskette by directory, file name, or file extension
Delete files and directories
Format Diskettes
1. Press the main menu DISK button to bring up the main Disk
menu.
NOTE:
It will take a few seconds before the Disk menus display. The
disk system does a self-test during that period.
2. Insert a diskette into the disk drive in the upper control panel
of the switcher. Make sure the write-protect on the diskette is
off.
3. From the Disk menu, press
UTILS> to invoke the Disk Utilities
Menu. (Do not press
CHILD DIRECTORY at this time.)
4. If the disk is already formatted, skip to “Saving Files.” If not,
proceed as follows:
a. From the Utilities menu, press either
FORMAT 720K or
FORMAT 1.44M, as appropriate.
b. Press
DO FORMAT.
