HANDLING FLOPPY DISK
Data for this machine, basically managed by PT, is saved to and loaded from a
floppy disk on the machine. This section describes the protection and handling
of such floppy disks.
This machine can use only 3.5-inch 2DD floppy disks for storing data. 2HD disks
cannot be used.
1
Backing up the Data and Program
A floppy disk is a compact and light weighted data storage medium convenient for storage and
transport, but data may be erased or may not be loaded by improper handling.
Make sure to back-up the data on a disk to protect against the loss of data. To back-up the data,
make another copy disk of the same contents.
2
Write Protection
The stored data may be mechanically protected from accidental erasure or rewriting.
• Write protection may be set or disabled by sliding the write protect tab located at the lower part of
the floppy disk with a ball pen tip, etc.
