SQ-80 — Musician's Manual
WARNING: You must select the proper file before answering *YES*. The SQ-80 does not
automatically know which file you loaded in the first place. If you are updating an ALL SEQ file,
for example, and you scroll to the wrong ALL SEQ file and then answer *YES*, the
SQ-80 will
save the current Sequencer Memory to that disk location, wiping out the wrong file. Ifs up to
you to indicate which file you want replaced before answering *YES*.
− Press *YES*.
− The Display reads "ACCESSING DISK DRIVE...". After the file is Updated, you are returned
to the
Storage Page.
SAVE Error Messages:
There are a number of Error Messages which you might encounter when Saving data to disk:
−
> NO DISK IN DRIVE — Put a formatted disk in the drive before trying to save data.
> DISK WRITE-PROTECTED — The plastic Write-Protect tab in the lower-left corner of the
disk is in the open position (you can see through the hole). You cannot save anything to the disk
until the tab is moved to the closed position.
− > DISK IS UNREADABLE OR UNFORMATTED — The disk in the Disk Drive is
not formatted for
SQ-80 data. Use a different disk which has already been formatted, or format
the disk (see above) before proceeding. If you get this message with a disk has is formatted, it usually
indicates that the disk has been damaged in some way, and cannot be read.
− > NO UNUSED FILES OF THAT TYPE — This indicates that all the available files on the
disk, of the type you tried to save, are full. You will have to Delete a File, as described below, or
use a different disk which has more room on it. (Or you can use the UPDATE OLD FILE option
if you intend to delete one of the files on the disk anyway)
− COMMAND CANCELED - INCORRECT FILE TYPE — This message can occur when
Updating ONE (SEQ), ALL (SEQ) or SYS-EX files, if you accidentally have
a file of the wrong.
type showing when you answer *YES*. Try the procedure again.
− DISK CHANGE DETECTED — RE-ENTER COMMAND — When the SQ-80 went to sav
the data it discovered that the disk in the drive was not the same one whose directory it initially
read. You switched disks sometime after you pressed SAVE, which the
SQ-80 considers a very
naughty thing to do. Repeat the procedure, leaving the same disk in the drive throughout.
> DISK IS DAMAGED - DATA ERRORS DETECTED — While trying to Verify the data it
had saved to disk, the
SQ-80 encountered a discrepancy between what it had saved and what was
on the disk. This usually means the disk is suspect. Save the data to another disk.
− > DISK CONTROLLER ERROR - CONSULT MANUAL — If this message appears during
any disk procedure, it might indicate a hardware problem with the
SQ-80's Disk Drive or the Disk
Drive controller chip. Try a different disk: if the message persists, consult an authorized
ENSONIQ Service Center.
