The PSR-620 uses only 3.5" 2DD floppy disks. Before you can use a new disk for saving data, the disk
must be "formatted" as described below.
1
Insert the Disk to Be Formatted
Make sure that the disk's write protect tab is set to the "write" position
(tab closed), and insert the new disk into the disk drive unit with the sliding
shutter facing the drive slot and the label side of the disk facing upward. The
disk should click securely into place.
When an unformatted disk is properly loaded, the FORMAT job is auto-
matically selected. "Unformat" will appear on the display and the [EX-
ECUTE] indicator will flash.

Using Floppy Disks
• Be careful not to format a disk
that already contains data you
want to keep. The format opera-
tion erases all data on the floppy
disk!
• Never remove the disk or turn the
power OFF while the "Formatng"
display is showing.
• The "Unformat" display will also
appear if you insert a disk the
PSR-620 cannot read.
• When an unformatted write-
protected disk is loaded,
"Unformat" will be displayed. If
you press the [EXECUTE] but-
ton, "Protcted" will appear on the
display. Make sure the disk's
write-protect tab is set to the OFF
position before formatting.
• When you want to re-format a
formatted disk, press the [JOB
SELECT] button to the right of
the display as many times as
necessary until the arrowhead in
the display appears next to
"FORMAT" in the disk job list to
the right of the display. The
[EXECUTE] indicator will flash
and "Format?" will appear on the
display. To execute the format
operation, press the [EXECUTE]
button. "Sure?" will appear on
the display and the format is
executed by pressing the [+/YES]
button.
