pleted.

the previous page. If errors are found the SD1 automatically moves onto the Repair function.

THE DISK FUNCTIONS FOR THE FLOPPY DISK

When using the Floppy Disk, the SD1 offers the following functions:
F1 Dir:
This displays all the files stored in the Floppy Disk.
F2 Load:
Once a file has been selected using the VALUE +/- and F10 Select push buttons you can load it in RAM. Files with .PAT exten-
sion are on the other hand copied within the Hard Disk in the Folder in use when Master Folder is disabled or in the Midi file
Folder Midifile if Master Folder is enabled.
F3 Save:
This calls up the page used to select the type of memory to be saved on Floppy. The options are the same as those described
for F3 Save in the section called "The Disk functions for the Hard Disk". Not all options are enabled.
F4 Copy:
This is used to copy the file, selected using the VALUE +/- and F10 Select push buttons, in the Folder in use or in the reference
Folder with Master Folder enabled. In the case of Midi files, you can copy them in the Midi file Folder or in that of Demo & Hit,
by using the F3 function push button. When copying you must also re-name the file and the Skip commando for single files
and Copy All for all files. It works in the exact same manner as the F4 Copy function of the Hard Disk.
F5 File Choice:
When a number of files are stored in Floppy disk but with different extension, you can find only those desired by choosing the
type of file to be displayed. The options are the exact same as those for the Hard Disk
F6 Delete:
This cancels one or a number of files selected using the VALUE +/- and F10 Select push buttons.
F7 Rename:
This is used to re-name a file selected using the VALUE +/- push buttons.
F9 Utility:
This calls up a page with the following options:
F1 Info: This displays the free space on Floppy and the number of files stored.
F4 Format: This formats the Floppy disk inserted in MS DOS. To enable the procedure, disable the lock function by
pressing F6 Lock Format and confirm the warning message using F10 Exec. To cancel the procedure press F5 Escape.
F5 Escape: This returns to the previous page of the menu.
F6 Lock Format: When enabled it is impossible to format a Floppy from the SD1
F7 Chain Edit: This is used to create chains of Midi file, of no longer than 32 Midi files, to be reproduced one after the
other. The procedures are the exact same as the F7 Chain Edit in the Utility page of the Disk menu for the Hard Disk
(refer to the specific section)
F8 Chain List: This displays only the chains of Midi files stored in the Floppy Disk.
F10 Exec. This is enabled only if the chains of Midi files are displayed and is used to create a list of the Midi files that
make up the chain.
This confirms the choice of a file, putting the symbol ♦ in front of the file.
