Setting the Record Protect function

The recorder features the Record Protect function,
which is similar to the function of record-protect
tabs on cassette tapes. The "Setting the Record Protect
function" menu allows you to turn the Record Protect
function on and off.
When this function is turned on, you cannot record,
paste, or erase data. Use this function to protect your
precious data from being erased accidentally.
• Initial setting:
• Option:
* You can turn the function on and off for each Program
individually.
* The settings can be saved and loaded as part of the
song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the
power to the recorder.
* The Program is automatically checked before the
operation.

In the "Setting a digital input" menu, the signal to be
input to the [DATA INPUT] connector of the recorder
can be set for either digital signals (adat digital signal
or S/P DIF digital signal) or analog signals, and also
setup of the digital in clock (synchronous or
asynchronous).
By using this function, signals from external digital
equipment (CD, MD, DAT, adat digital mixer) can
be digitally recorded.
When selecting the clock, there are the "Async" and
"Sync" modes; either should be selected depending
on the application. If it is set to "Async" mode, the
later explained "Clock Sel?" (Setting the operating
clock) should be setup in accordance to the
application.
• Initial setting:
• Assignable digital signal/setting digital in-clock:
[adat: Async], [adat: Sync], [SPDIF: Async], [SPDIF: Sync],
[Analog]
* This setting is shared by all Programs in the same
disk.
* The settings cannot be saved and loaded as part of
the song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the
power to the recorder.
