NOTE :
Some operations described in this chapter involve the deletion of the entire disk contents. Proceed
carefully so that important data is not lost.
Handling disks
CAUTION :
Never turn off the power to the DPS16 or move the DPS16 while it is accessing the disk (recording or
playback). Otherwise, the disk may be damaged and data be permanently lost.
If a removable drive is connected to the SCSI connector, do not turn the power to the DPS16 on or off while
the media (cartridge) is inside the removable drive.

Disk mode enables you to control the internal hard disk and an external SCSI device, and check the operation
status. Pressing the [DISK] key while the transport section is stopped will set the DPS16 to Disk mode. The
