The [To Disk] Button; F6: Disk - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-6000 Owner's Manual

F6: Disk

Although the F6: DISK function accesses a range of important disk
operations, the most commonly used disk functions — save to disk
and load from disk — can also be directly accessed via the [TO DISK]
and [FROM DISK] buttons, as described below.
Please note that no other PSR-6000 functions will operate while a
disk function is in progress.
NOTES
• For any disk operation an appropriate floppy disk must first be properly inserted into the
PSR-6000 disk drive. The PSR-6000 uses only 3.5" 2DD type floppy disks. Make sure the
disk write protect tab is set to the "write enable" position if you intend to save any data to
the disk, and insert the disk with the sliding disk cover facing the disk drive and the disk
label facing upward. Before a new disk can be used to save data, it must be formatted
using the "FORMAT DISK" function described on page 98.

The [TO DISK] Button

Press this button when you want to save the
current contents of the PSR-6000 memory (see list
below) to floppy disk for later re-loading and use.
The display shown to the right will appear:
Use any of the LCD dials to select the file to
which you want to save the data. The file list at the
bottom of the display includes all files which cur-
rently exist on the disk and one "NEW" file (named
"N-FILE"). Select an existing file if you want to
overwrite the file with the new data, or select the
"NEW" file if you want to create a new file. With the
exception of the "NEW" file, the size of each file
will appear to the right of the file name in kilobytes
(approximate).
If you want to give a new file an original filename
or change the name of an existing file prior to saving
it to disk, press the NAME LCD button to go to the
name display.
