About the COMMANDS • Overwrite the object on disk with the object from memory. Push this knob if you want to overwrite the existing disk object with the object that you are saving. If you select this option, the A5000/A4000 will delete the original disk object and replace it with the object from main memory. • Abort the save operation. Push this knob to terminate the save operation without executing any further saves. Note that it is not possible to undo any saves that you have already completed. • If Knob 1 (EXEC) is used to execute the command, the display previous to the command menu will be recalled after execution has finished. If Knob 5 (EXEC&CONT) is used to execute the command, the arrange display will be retained so you can continue and perform further arrange operations. Cursor q Saving and loading to or from multiple floppy disks. • Data which is too large to fit on a single floppy disk can be segmented and saved to multiple floppy disks. A confirmation display allowing you to choose to abort the save operation or save to multiple floppies will appear when saving data too large for a single floppy. Press Knob 5 (OK) to execute a multifloppy save. You will not need to change disks at this point. • When performing a multi-floppy save, follow the instructions on the display and insert new floppy disks as required. Unformatted disks can be used from the second disk onward (unformatted disks will automatically be formatted without interrupting the save operation). • Multi-floppy data is saved in a special format, and saved programs and samples cannot be verified in the DISK mode. For this reason, single programs or samples cannot be loaded from floppy disks saved in this way, and addition programs or samples cannot be saved to the disks. • Data saved to multiple floppy disks can be loaded by first inserting the first floppy disk and executing the load operation from the DISK-VOLUME display (page 172). Then all you need to do is change floppies as directed by the display. • The disk names for multiple-saved floppy disks are the name of the first disk plus a consecutive numbers. The disks must be changed in the order of their consecutive numbers when loading the data. • Since the contents of floppy disks saved in this way cannot be verified in the disk mode, choose a disk name that clearly reflects the disks' contents.
