8288 665 000 Model FD-4 Ownerís Manual Supplement By updating the software to V1.10, the FD-4 save/load functions will be extended. In addition to the current save/load functions using a DAT, saving/loading song data to/from either a removable or fixed external SCSI drive is possible. In accordance with the above improvement, a new menu [Bk Format ?] which formats the diskette for backup purpose is newly added in the SETUP mode. In this supplement, the way to save/load song data using an external SCSI drive and [Bk Format ?] are only mentioned. For save/load function using a DAT and other SETUP mode, please refer to the original FD-4 Ownerís Manual.

Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer. 9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance. Grounding or Polarization - The precautions that should be taken so that the grounding or polarization means of an appliance is not defeated. Power Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer. Nonuse Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings. Damage requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when: A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked changed in performance; or E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel. 10. 11. 12. 6. 13. 14. 15. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings. 16. 7. 8. 17. 2 FD-4 Ownerís Manual Supplement Saving/Loading Song Data using SCSI Drive As indicated below, saving/loading song data procedures using a SCSI backup drive differ from that using a DAT. Using a DAT (S/P DIF digital signal) (Saving/Loading individual Program data: only in Mastering mode) Following about five seconds of pilot signal (shown in gray in the diagram below), song data in the current drive is output to a connected DAT. Two tracks of audio data (shown in black in the diagram) are output. To save data from Real tracks 1-4, two-track data will be output twice, which takes twice as much time as the song duration (ABS 0 to REC END). To save all data including Additional tracks 5-6, two-track data will be output three times, which takes three times the song duration. Save data is also loaded two tracks at a time. DAT tape Trk 1&2 Trk 3&4 Trk 5&6 Program 1 (P01) Program 2 (P02) Program 99 (P99) Using a SCSI disk (Saving/Loading individual Program Data: in any mode) All Real Track data and Additional track data is output simultaneously to a SCSI disk as shown in black in the diagram. Therefore, saving and loading a Program takes much less relative to a DAT. No pilot signal or beep is recorded. If the available disk space is smaller than the song data size, you may use multiple disks (up to 99 disks) to save and load an entire song. SCSI disk Trk 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 Program 1 (P01) Program 2 (P02) Program 99 (P99) Backup SCSI Drive Connection The FD-4 with updated software allows you to connect a backup SCSI drive in addition to the current SCSI drive at the same time. For those who use the SCSI drive as the current drive, referring to the diagram below, connect the two SCSI drives in chain regardless of the connection order. When connecting the two SCSI drives, set the SCSI ID number as listed below. Also be sure to attach a terminator on the second SCSI drive to terminate the SCSI chain. For your information, the backup SCSI drives which can be used on the FD-4 are listed in the in the first page of original ownerís manual. < SCSI ID Number Setting > SCSI Drive to be used as Current Drive SCSI Drive to be used for Backup Set the ID number to an elective one among ì1 through 5î.

Turn off the power of all the connected devices before you make connections. Note: Unlike the save/load operation using a DAT, you cannot abort the save/load operation that uses a SCSI drive while in process. Nor can you monitor audio data during operation. Also, you cannot load data to a disk formatted in a recording mode that differs from that on the backup disk. For example, you cannot load data from a backup disk in Normal mode to a disk in Mastering mode.

Be sure to attach a terminator on the second SCSI drive to terminate the SCSI chain regardless of connection order. * Be sure to set the ID number for the backup SCSI drive to ì6î. Also be sure to set the ID number for the current drive to an elective one among ì1 through 5î. * Prepare the disk recorded as the current drive and a backup disk (unformatted at this stage).
