5. Press the page menu button to access the page
menu, and press "Format" to open the dialog box.
6. In "Volume Label," use the text edit button to
access the text edit dialog box, and specify the
volume label.
The previously‐specified volume label will be
displayed. If no volume label had been specified for
the media, or if a non‐DOS media was inserted, this
will indicate "NEW VOLUME."
7. Specify the initialization format.
Quick Format: Normally you should use Quick
Format to initialize the media.
Select this if the media has already been physically
formatted, or if you want to format media that has
been UDF‐formatted by the KRONOS. Since only the
system area of the media need be formatted, this will
require less time.
Note: For the internal disk you can only select "Quick
Format."
Full Format: Select this when formatting media that
has not been physically formatted, or media (CD‐RW)
that has not been UDF‐formatted.
Note: Normally, it is not necessary to perform a Full
Format on media that has been physically formatted at
512 bytes/block. Execute the Quick Format for such
media.
Note: You will normally select Full Format for CD‐RW
media etc. that has not been UDF‐formatted. If an error
message of "Media not formatted" appears, execute
Full Format.
Depending on the capacity of the media, executing Full
Format may require a substantial length of time.
8. Specify the file system.
Use FAT16 to format media of 4 GB or less (such as
flash media), and use FAT32 to format larger media
(theoretically, up to 2 Terabytes).
9. Press the OK button to format, or press the Cancel
button if you decide to cancel.
When you press the OK button, a message will ask you
for confirmation. Press the OK button once again to
execute the Format operation.
You must format a CD‐R/RW disc if you want to use
it for packet writing, or if it has previously been
used by another device.
You do not need to format a CD‐R/RW disc that you
will use to create an audio CD.
You must use the KRONOS to format the media.
The KRONOS will not correctly recognize media
that has been formatted by another device.
