Backing up a Project to an external device

If you do not have a backup of your Projects, you may lose the Projects forever if the JAZ disk or the external

SCSI device malfunctions or if you erase the Projects accidentally. To avoid this disaster, Akai recommends that

you back-up important Projects to an external SCSI device or DAT recorder. Follow the steps below to back-up

your Projects.

■ Back-up to a SCSI device

You may back-up data to a SCSI device, such as a hard disk or MO drive.

➸

NOTE :

In this case, any data that exists on the back-up destination drive will be erased and replaced

with back-up data.

1. Press the [F2] key in Project mode.

The following window appears.

2. Move the cursor to the field 1 and select “SCSI”.

You can select (SCSI device) or (DAT recorder)” as a back-up device in the field.

3. Select a Project to back-up in the field 2.

4. Set the SCSI ID (0–7) of the backup device in the field 3.

This field 3 changes depending on the device you selected in field 1. If you selected , the

field appears here, enabling you to set the SCSI ID of the backup device.

5. Select whether you wish to format the backup disk in the select field 4.

If you select in the field, the DPS12 formats the disk, then backs up the data.

If you select , the DPS12 backs up data without formatting the disk.

➸

NOTE :

If you select for the field, the DPS12 erases data on the disk and

backs up the Projects. If you select , the DPS12 formats the disk completely, then backs up the

Projects. Therefore, the latter takes more time.

6. Press the [F5] key. The following window appears to confirm the operation.

7. Press the [F5] key.

The DPS12 executes the backup operation. When the operation is complete, the display returns to the

PROJECT screen.
