mum 6,752KB).

Save OS
This command starts an Operating System backup, to save a
copy of the instrument’s Operating System on a floppy disk.
Note: Should you not do a back-up and your internal data is
changed, you can download the data from www.korgpa.com, or
ask your local KORG dealer.
1. Prepare a formatted, empty disk (1.44MB, MS-DOS
formatted). You can prepare this kind of disk using a PC
or the Pa80 itself (see “Page 5 - Format” on page 17-14).
Note: You can’t prepare a Pa80 OS disk on a Macintosh.
After formatting, the Mac includes some invisible files in
the root, that may interfere with the Pa80 OS loading pro-
cedure.
2. Select the Save OS command.
3. Insert a disk and press ENTER. The following files are
created on disk:
• OSPa80.LZX
• BPa80.SYS
• NBPa80.SYS
If the disk is not formatted or empty, Pa80 asks if you
want to format it:
Keep SHIFT pressed, and press ENTER to format the
disk. Pa80 first tries a Fast Format, then makes a Full
Format if the former is not possible.
Backup Data
This command starts a backup of all internal factory data
(Styles, Programs, Performances…) excluding the Operating
System itself.
Note: Should you not do a back-up and your internal data is
changed, you can download the data from www.korgpa.com, or
ask your local KORG dealer.
1. If you are making a backup on floppy disks, prepare 5
disks. Disks don’t need to be formatted, because Pa80
will format them for you during the Backup procedure.
2. Select the Backup Data command.
3. The “Backup to FD (Yes) or HD (No)?” message
appears. Press ENTER/YES to select the floppy disk, or
EXIT/NO to select the hard disk.
4. The “Are you sure?” message appears. Press ENTER to
continue, EXIT to abort.
5. • If you selected the hard disk, the backup will start
immediately.
• If you selected the floppy disk, insert a disk and press
ENTER
6. When the Pa80 asks for it, insert a new disk into the
floppy disk drive. Write the disk number on each disk’s
label.
If a disk is not formatted or empty, Pa80 asks if you want
to format it:
Keep SHIFT pressed, and press ENTER to format the
disk. Pa80 first tries a Fast Format, then makes a Full
Format if the former is not possible.
Restore Data
This command restores the backup of the internal factory
data, executed with the “Backup Data” command.
Note: Should your Factory Data disks become corrupt, you can
download the data from www
.korgpa.com, or ask your local
KORG dealer.
Warning: Don’t play on the keyboard while restoring data, and
stay in the Disk mode. Wait until the “Wait” message disap-
pears, and the WRITE/DISK IN USE LED turns off.
