Procedure to Load All Data
The "Load All" function replaces the data on the hard drive with the data which
was backed up with the Backup All function. Load All will overwrite the entire
hard drive.
1. Connect the coaxial output from the DAT recorder to the appropriate input on the
HDR.
2. Press the UTILITY button until Backup/Load is selected. Use the Jog Dial to
select "Ld ALL". Press the ENTER button.
Note: If "no din" remains in the counter, the HDR is not receiving the digital clock
correctly from the DAT recorder. Please check the digital in/out connection.
Also, make sure the DAT recorder is set up to send a digital signal.
Some DAT machines do not send the digital clock until the tape is actually played.
If this appears to be the case, begin playing the DAT between steps 2 and 3.
3. The display will show "no din" (no digital input) for a few seconds, then change
to "dAtPLAH" (DAT Play).
4 Begin playing the DAT. The display show a "trAc 1 " when the DAT comes to the
beginning of the data. The track number will increment as each track is loaded
onto the hard drive. When the Load All function is complete, the display will
show the current position.
Note: The data being backed up will be audible through the master outputs. Be sure
to turn down the monitor system before beginning step four.
Procedure to Load Song
The data saved with the Backup Song function must be loaded back onto the
hard drive by using the Load Song function. This takes approximately four
times the length of the song. The locate points and the 128 mixer snapshot
programs are backed up only when using the Backup All function and can't be
loaded by the Load Song function.
Before loading a song, a song space must be created and be the current song.
The song you create must be as long or longer than the song being loaded. The
display will show "no Fit" when the newly created song is not long enough. Delete
the song if the no fit message is displayed, and create the song again; this time
with a longer length.
TechTip: When using Back-Up Song method, write down song name and length of
song. The length with be required when loading song back into HDR-V8.
1. Press the UTILITY button until Backup/Load is selected. Press the ENTER
button. Use the Jog Dial to select "LdSong". Press the ENTER button.
2. The display shows "no din" for a few seconds, then "SurE". Press the ENTER
button.
3. The display shows "DatPla" . Press play on your DAT machine.
4. The display should say "Trac 1" and count up through trac 8 and "data". When the
Song Load function is complete, the display will show the current position.
