Saving the data using SCSI
This procedure will SAVE/LOAD using a removable SCSI drive disk (zip, MO, DVD RAM etc.) that is
a backup disk.
A backup purpose SCSI disk is generally used after formatted in the backup format, however, a DOS
formatted (computer format) SCSI disk can also be used to SAVE/LOAD in WAV.
Data saved in WAV can be re-loaded and even directly be read by the computer. Therefore, this
kind of data can be used as music software, as well.
Connecting a SCSI device
Refer to the diagram to connect a SCSI device to a D824 (D1624).
<Notes on connection>
* Before making connections, make sure that both the recorder and the SCSI drive are turned off.
* One SCSI drive may be connected on the recorder.
* The SCSI connector on the recorder is a half pitch 50-pin connector compatible with Macintosh computers.
Use a cable with connectors that conform to the standards for connecting a SCSI drive.
* The SCSI drive should be terminated. Install a SCSI terminator, or turn the termination switch to “on” if the
drive has a termination qswitch (like a zip drive).
<SCSI ID number setting>
* Using the SCSI drive as a back-up drive Select “ 6 .”
* You must format the SCSI disk after you connect it to the recorder. Refer to the “Formatting” section on the
next page for the formatting procedure.
