SmartMedia card file operations This section describes how to save, load and delete SmartMedia card data, as well as format SmartMedia cards for use with the instrument. * This instrument uses SmartMedia™ (3.3V) memory cards. • Make sure to insert an appropriate SmartMedia card in the card slot BEFORE you turn on the power. Never insert or pull out the SmartMedia card while the power is turned on. Doing so may damage the files in the SmartMedia card or data in the internal memory. About the SmartMedia card file operations Call up the file operations and the FILE CONTROL display by pressing the [FILE CONTROL] panel button. • Turning the power on automatically mounts the SmartMedia card. We recommend that you always have a SmartMedia card ready for backing up important data. • When the SmartMedia card is mounted, the file control icon in the MAIN display lights and the FILE CONTROL display can be called up. • When the FILE CONTROL display is active, all panel controls unrelated to File operations cannot be used. The instrument cannot be played either. • If you are using a SmartMedia card that has not been formatted for the instrument and you press the [FILE CONTROL] button, the Format page is automatically called up (after a brief "Please Format" prompt), letting you format the card. (The particular Format page called up here is the same as that described in step ᕢ in the section "Formatting a SmartMedia card" below.) NOTE • The FILE CONTROL display cannot be called up when the SmartMedia card is not properly inserted (file control icon is off). • The FILE CONTROL display cannot be called up when the SmartMedia card is being accessed or mounted, or during style/ song playback, or while Lesson is used. • Keep in mind that when battery power becomes low, the instrument sounds may revert to their initial settings and the User song data and panel settings may be lost, especially if you play the instrument in this condition at a high volume. If you intend on using batteries, make sure to save your data regularly and often to a SmartMedia card. Formatting a SmartMedia card If you've bought a new, blank SmartMedia card, you'll need to format the card before you can use it with the instrument. f r ᕡ Make sure the SmartMedia card you wish to format is inserted, then press the [FILE CONTROL] button. ᕢ Call up the Format page by using the CATEGORY buttons [ ]/[ ]. A "Format OK?" message appears, asking if you want to format the card. • Keep in mind that formatting a SmartMedia card containing data irretrievably deletes all data previously saved to card. Make sure that you do not delete any important data by formatting the card. NOTE • If the write-protect function on the SmartMedia card is enabled, a "The media is writeprotected." message appears and the delete operation cannot be executed. ᕣ Press the [EXECUTE] button. A "Sure ?" message appears to confirm the operation. ᕤ Press the [EXECUTE] button or the [+] button to actually format the SmartMedia card. NOTE • To cancel the operation, press the [-] button in Step ᕣ . • You cannot cancel the operation while it is being executed ("Formatting..." message is shown). Never turn off the power or pull out the SmartMedia card in this condition. ᕥ When the Format operation is completed, a "Completed" message appears. To return to the MAIN display, press the [EXIT] button. 62 PSR-K1 Owner's Manual
