Checking The Remaining Memory; Copy Protect - Yamaha Artiste AR-80 Electone Owner's Manual

9.
Repeat steps #6 through #8 above as many times as necessary, following
the prompts on the display.
The number of times the above steps need to be repeated depends
on the amount of data to be copied and the disk type. (2DD type
disks may take 2 to 16 repetitions; 2HD disks may take 2 to 31
repetitions.)
When the operation is finished, the "REMAIN" counter in the
display will show "0" briefly before returning to the original
UTILITY page.

Checking the Remaining Memory

The amount of memory available for additional recording is displayed in the REMAIN section in
the CONTROL PANEL page (during recording or recording standby only). It is also displayed in
the UTILITY page. The maximum amount of memory is 712 for 2DD disks and 1422 for 2HD
disks.

Copy Protect

Some of the Disks available for the AR-80 are purposely protected from being copied or erased.
You cannot save the data to another floppy disk. If you try to load data from such a "copy-
protected" disk to the AR-80, an error message will appear in the display.
