Formatting A Disk - Yamaha Electone EL-27 Owner's Manual

Formatting a Disk

Before recording a performance to your blank disk, the disk must first be formatted.
To format a disk:
1.
Put the disk, label facing up, into the
disk drive (insertion slot).
"Fort" will appear on the LED display indicating that the
inserted disk reguires to be formatted.
2.
While holding down the SHIFT button,
press the FORMAT button.
This step puts the format operation on stand-by, indicated
by the dashes on the LED display and the flashing LED
above the FORMAT button.
3.
Press the FORMAT button again to
begin formatting.
The LED above the FORMAT button stays lit. The number
"160" appears on the LED display and counts down to
"001" as the disk is being formatted. When formatting is
completed, operation returns to the original STOP status.
About SHIFT button:
You will find the SHIFT button (printed in green) at the top right side of the M.D.R. section. Some buttons in
the M.D.R. section have dual functions: the first function is printed in white above each button; the second
function is printed in green below each button. The SHIFT button is used to select the second functions by
pressing each function button while holding down the SHIFT.
